Brittany Olson

Brittany Olson is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with nine years of experience in clinical settings and prevention work. She has experience in addictions treatment and has worked with young children, adolescents, and in community and residential programs. Brittany also completed an internship at an LGBTQ+ center. She describes a direct therapy style that stays respectful and warm. Brittany helps people set clear goals and builds a plan that fits each person's needs.

Her background includes work in early childhood and adolescent services, plus several years focused on addiction prevention and treatment. That mix of settings means she is familiar with both short-term interventions and longer care plans. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events are part of a person’s current struggles.

In sessions she is straightforward while remaining compassionate. Conversations move toward practical steps people can try between meetings. Brittany pays attention to how stress, anger, and other strong emotions show up in daily life and helps people build new ways to cope.

Her practice supports people managing anxiety, depression, grief, eating concerns, substance issues, ADHD, and relationship or family-of-origin struggles. She also addresses caregiver stress, body image, and work-related strain. Brittany aims to make therapy a collaborative process where goals are clear and measurable.

Located in Montana, she works in English. The path into therapy begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling that follows the therapist’s availability.

How these approaches guide online work

The therapist commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing practical changes. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and behavior patterns that get in the way of daily life.

She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events continue to affect feelings and relationships. This approach helps people make sense of traumatic memories and learn coping skills that reduce their impact on everyday functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. Decisions about pacing and techniques are made together so people feel involved in the plan.

Confirm which online session formats are currently offered before booking. When available, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins during stressful periods. It can also make it simpler to maintain continuity of care during life changes, while the therapist helps tailor sessions to practical routines and daily demands.
