Brittney often addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, family of origin problems, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, communication breakdowns, control issues, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She also works on impulsivity, guilt and shame, forgiveness, and fatherhood-related stress when those topics come up.

How Brittney uses CBT and Motivational Interviewing online
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and shifting behaviors. In practice this means tracking patterns, testing small changes between sessions, and using structured exercises to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. It can help with sleep problems, worry, low mood, and day-to-day coping.Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to talk about change. The therapist helps you weigh pros and cons, build motivation, and move through the stages of change at your own pace. This approach is often helpful for addictions, impulsivity, or when someone feels stuck and unsure about next steps.
Figuring out which approach to use is part of the work. Brittney will talk with each person about goals and preferences and together decide what to try first. That collaboration helps match techniques to what feels useful in the moment.
