About Brittany

Dr. Brittany Collins offers a practical, person-focused approach to therapy. She centers sessions on what matters most to each person and helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way of living well. Her tone is direct and encouraging, with a focus on clear steps people can try between sessions.

She brings ten years of clinical experience and holds the credentials LPC and LPCC. Her background includes work with adults, adolescents, young adults, athletes, and coaches on issues such as depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, identity, and life transitions. She also supports people facing career concerns, parenting challenges, and relationship strain.

In session she uses client-centered conversations alongside practical skills from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches. That means she listens for what you most want to change, then helps you test small changes in thoughts, routines, and reactions. She also draws on emotionally focused ideas to help with communication and connection in close relationships.

Her style aims to be collaborative and down-to-earth. She helps people set realistic goals, track progress, and adjust plans when needed. She encourages trying short exercises between sessions to build momentum.

People who reach out can expect straightforward conversation about stress, self-esteem, parenting, blended family issues, body image concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, and related topics. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building from your goals. A therapist using this approach centers the conversation on your experience and what you want to change, helping you feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify patterns in thoughts and habits and then try small experiments to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping, and it can help with emotional regulation and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and help choose which methods to emphasize. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also support practicing new skills in the context of everyday life. Licensed professionals will adapt exercises and homework so they work well in a remote setting.
