About Brittany
Brittany Stephen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of experience in the mental health field. She works with young adults and others on issues such as LGBT concerns, relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, and self-esteem. Brittany also addresses attachment and abandonment worries, identity questions, and the challenges of early adulthood like school and work transitions.
Brittany describes a collaborative style that blends talk-based work and creative options. She has a background as a board-certified music therapist and sometimes uses musical expression to help people name feelings and regulate strong emotions. Sessions can include emotion-focused conversation or creative exercises when words alone are not enough.
Her approach pays attention to cultural background and life context. She offers support around communication problems, commitment and codependency issues, and navigating neurodivergence and alternative sexual cultures like BDSM and kink. Brittany also helps people coping with chronic illness, caregiver stress, dissociation, and the ripple effects of trauma.
People see her for relationship repair, attachment work, and the stress that shows up during major life changes like leaving home or starting college or a job. She works with people who want clearer boundaries, better communication, and more stable self-esteem.

Approaches and how online sessions can fit your life
Two approaches Brittany draws on are emotion-focused work and creative music-based techniques. Emotion-focused work helps people identify and name intense feelings, understand how those feelings drive behavior, and practice new ways of responding in relationships. Music-based techniques use songwriting, rhythm, or listening exercises to access emotion, soothe overwhelm, and practice regulation when talking is difficult.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Brittany collaborates with each person to decide whether more conversational strategies, emotion-focused work, or creative exercises will best meet their needs and goals. She adjusts methods as therapy progresses so the work stays practical and relevant.
Confirm session formats before booking through the platform. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into school and work schedules, avoid travel time, and keep check-ins shorter when needed. Some formats may also be less bandwidth-heavy or not require a camera, which helps on busy days. Ask about session options when you complete the matching questionnaire so the format matches your routine and comfort.
