About Brittney
Brittney Jackson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with medical training who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and life transitions. She draws on 17 years of experience working across human services, criminal justice, and healthcare settings. People come to her for help with parenting strain, relationship challenges, grief, mood concerns, and self-esteem issues.
In clinical work she uses a strengths-based, practical approach. Sessions focus on clear goals, skills people can use between meetings, and small changes that add up.
Background and approach
Brittney values creativity and adapts methods to fit each person’s needs and daily life. Her background includes running patient services for people with kidney disease and providing early childhood interventions. That work involved helping vulnerable families and children recover from trauma and long-term stress.
Those settings shaped her focus on practical coping strategies and compassionate support. Brittney blends client-centered conversations with structured techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and emotion-focused work. That mix lets her address thinking patterns, emotional responses, and relationship dynamics.
She explains tools in plain language and practices them together with clients during sessions. Sessions are meant to be collaborative and goal-directed. Brittney helps people set realistic steps, track progress, and adjust plans as needs change.
Her aim is to make therapy useful and doable for people juggling busy lives.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a collaborative relationship. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what matters most, and helps people find their own solutions, which can fit well into video or chat sessions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses clear exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns, making it easy to practice skills between online meetings and use screen-shared worksheets when helpful.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work with strong feelings and improve how they relate to others. It is useful for addressing anger, intimacy issues, and relationship distress through guided conversation and emotional tracking during sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adjust methods as progress is made. This collaborative process helps tailor therapy to each person's life.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit quick check-ins and brief coaching. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
