LSW
5-24
Hi, I'm Brittany! I'm a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) in Colorado and earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Denver. I'm passionate about working with children, adolescents, and young adults and supporting them as they navigate the challenges that come with growing up. I believe that every person has their own strengths, experiences, personality, and way of making sense of the world, and therapy should make room for all of those things.
I believe meaningful therapy begins with a genuine connection. People deserve to have someone who is willing to slow down, listen, and try to understand their experience rather than simply focusing on changing a behavior. I try to approach therapy with curiosity, empathy, and flexibility, taking time to understand each client's individual experiences, strengths, and needs. I strive to make therapy a place where people can feel comfortable being themselves. I enjoy finding ways to make therapy engaging and developmentally appropriate while helping each client discover what works for them.
I have experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation difficulties, self-esteem concerns, suicidal thoughts, and substance use. I have a particular interest in supporting people who have experienced difficult or traumatic experiences, including experiences that may have affected their sense of safety, trust, or relationships with others. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care and a strengths based approach, supported by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Outside of being a therapist, I'm a Colorado native and enjoy spending time with my dog, cooking, and getting outdoors. I feel incredibly fortunate to do work that allows me to support young people during such an important part of their lives, and I look forward to working with you!
