Hey there! I’m Brittany.
I support people in how to move forward with perseverance and persistence, so they can build resilience, discover purpose, and take control over the outcome of their story.
Does this sound like you?
Feeling overwhelmed constantly by work and increasing work demands as a first responder
Struggling with a lack of patience and getting into more frequent arguments with your family
Feeling overwhelmed by the constant toxic cycles of the family you grew up in, and questioning if it’s time to walk away for good
Experiencing insecurity about your body in the process of trying to get pregnant
Getting more and more angry, scared, and stressed as the days pass and you don’t have the fertility results you’ve hoped for
Feeling abandoned by your first responder spouse and embarrassed for being alone often
Getting angry as a first responder or first responder spouse about shift work creating issues in being able to show up consistently for your kids
People come to therapy for so many different reasons. We could sit here and list out a million different things people could struggle with, and all those reasons are real, valid, and - let’s face it - hard.
But what if it didn’t have to be that way?
Whether you’ve gone to therapy before, or this is your first time - you deserve to be supported, have a space where you can truly put yourself first, and feel understood. It’s exhausting to feel like you have to always show the world that you can handle whatever’s thrown at you, feeling like you have to constantly pretend that everything’s ok. It can be scary and overwhelming to ask for help, but it doesn’t make you a failure, weak, or incapable. It simply makes you brave.
I specialize in working with first responders, first responder spouses, and individuals who are struggling with infertility, along with people who are working on breaking the cycle of toxicity in the family they grew up in.
When we work together, you get not only my clinical expertise and experience but also my lived experience because - surprise - I’ve dealt with all of these things too. When I say ‘I get it,’ I really, really mean it. Therapy isn’t a one-size-fits-all kind of thing, so my approach will also always be tailored to what you’re wanting to work on and talk about in each session.
It’s time to stop throwing bandaids at the challenges you’re facing, and dealing with it all on your own. You deserve to have long-lasting change, and live with confidence, joy, and autonomy.
Reach out today for a free consultation with me, and let’s get to work!

Therapy for First Responders and First Responder Spouses
First responders often come to therapy to address something in their personal life that has a direct link to the chronic stress or trauma they’ve experienced on the job. This can also impact first responder spouses, leaving them feeling burdened, abandoned, overwhelmed, and isolated. I provide a safe and nonjudgemental space both for First Responders and First Responder spouses to help them identify barriers to moving forward.

Therapy for Infertility
Discovering infertility can be painful and isolating. Couples going through infertility can feel grief and hopelessness, while individuals dealing with infertility feel like no one understands, and comments from friends and family can be unintentionally hurtful. Couples going through infertility treatments face hard decisions that their support network might not understand. I provide a space that is free of judgment, shame, or blame where you are supported with care and compassion.

Therapy for Cycle Breaking in Dysfunctional Families
It can be incredibly distressing to realize that sometimes the only way to find peace from toxic family is to break the cycle. This might be removing yourself from that relationship completely or setting difficult boundaries. There can be shame in your choice to end a toxic family relationship leaving you feeling confused, stuck in the middle and often times ashamed. Having a space where you feel validated and heard will be a vital part of working through your grief and trauma.

Brainspotting for Adults and First Responders
Brainspotting is a powerful treatment method that works by identifying, processing, and releasing core neuro-physiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, dissociation, and a variety of other challenging symptoms. It’s different from other therapy models in that it puts the client in control and the therapist acts in a supportive, collaborative role. Many adults and first responders prefer this type of therapy because there’s less ‘processing’ that’s required.
