About Brittany

Brittany Byers is a licensed social worker who helps people facing anger, stress, anxiety, addiction, and life transitions. She approaches each person as the expert on their own story and works to build on existing strengths. Brittany aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and supported.

She earned a Master of Social Work from Walden University in 2015 and holds Ohio licensure as an independently licensed social worker. Over the past 10 years she has worked with people dealing with depression, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and the ripple effects of trauma and abuse. Her experience includes helping people navigate relationship strain, parenting challenges, career pressures, and substance-related issues.

In sessions she focuses on clear, practical conversations. She uses client-centered methods to guide people toward their own answers. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and try small experiments to change them.

Mindfulness and motivational approaches are combined when helpful to build stress management skills and strengthen determination to change. Solution-focused techniques help set short-term goals and track progress in concrete ways.

Her style is collaborative and grounded in everyday language. People looking for help with anger, impulsivity, codependency, caregiver stress, or divorce-related strain will find an emphasis on coping skills and practical problem solving.

Approach-driven options for online work

Client-centered therapy begins by listening and helping people set goals that matter to them. A therapist using this approach focuses on understanding each person’s priorities and building on what already works in their life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence moods. It uses step-by-step exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anger, anxiety, and low mood.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to notice stress and steady reactions. These practices can reduce reactivity and support coping with intense feelings and impulses.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That process may shift over time as progress is reviewed.

Confirm which online formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific session types. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for focused check-ins during a workday. They also let people use tools like worksheets or guided mindfulness practices between meetings to reinforce new skills.
