About Brittany

Brittany Burke is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on thoughts and everyday habits that affect mood and behavior. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and issues with emotional regulation. Brittany aims to help people build practical skills and small habits that make daily life easier to manage.

She begins by listening closely and asking what brought someone to therapy. Together, therapist and client set clear, realistic goals and build a plan that matches the person’s needs. Sessions often include learning coping skills, practicing new ways of thinking, and trying small behavior changes between meetings.

Brittany uses active listening, validation, and empathy to make the room feel nonjudgmental. She guides conversations about thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can see patterns and choose different responses. Her approach balances steady support with practical skill-building.

She has 11 years of experience and has worked with people who face legal involvement or criminal justice issues. That background informs how she talks about systems, appointments, and documentation when relevant to treatment.

People come to Brittany for help with sleep, grief, self-esteem, career stress, family problems, trauma, and other life changes. She supports work on impulsivity, isolation, substance concerns, and co-occurring difficulties. If someone is unsure where to start, she helps narrow the first steps and builds from there.

How these approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person without judgment. It helps when someone needs a place to sort through feelings and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence actions and mood and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thinking patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and daily habits that get in the way. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, mixes acceptance with change and teaches skills for emotional regulation and managing intense reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself. Brittany will work together with clients to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That collaborative process can mean starting with one approach and adding skills from another as needs change.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. It can make it easier to keep regular check-ins and practice new skills between meetings. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered and can choose the one that fits your schedule and needs.
