I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience in crisis intervention and substance abuse counseling. I work with adults and couples who are seeking relief from trauma, grief, anxiety and depression, relationships issues, and life adjustment. I believe recovery and healing is not a one size fits all. Every individual and couple has a unique set of internal and external strengths. I use a holistic and creative, solutions focused based approach that is influenced by trauma therapy, attachment theory, psychodrama and theory of intersectionality. I believe that no matter what point you are in life that there is room to heal, room to grow, and room to thrive as your most authentic self.
I tell anyone I meet who is seeking out counseling, it’s crucial to find a therapist who is the right fit and makes us feel safe and comfortable. If you are interested in working with me, I approach psychotherapy as an alliance. We are partners in your journey of self discovery, reframing obstacles into lessons that help you live the most authentic life you can. It takes courage to admit that life’s burdens are sometimes too hard to bear alone. Opening up in therapy is an act of courage, strength and self love.
I’m Brittany, a Licensed Social Worker educated at Fordham University and a Certified Financial Social Worker. As one of a limited number of CFSWs, I offer a unique integration that most therapists can’t: addressing both the emotional roots and financial realities of the challenges you’re facing.
Why this matters: Money concerns don’t exist in a vacuum. They’re deeply intertwined with our self-worth, boundaries, relationships, trauma history, and the stories we’ve internalized about what we deserve. When we address only the emotional piece or only the practical piece, we miss the fuller picture of healing and growth.
I specialize in supporting clients navigating:
My person-centered, culturally responsive approach honors your unique story and lived experience. Whether you’re healing from past trauma, rebuilding after emotional abuse, working through anxiety tied to financial insecurity, or simply trying to understand why certain patterns keep repeating—I create a safe space where you can explore not just what you’re feeling, but why, and how to move forward with greater clarity and strength.
With experience serving diverse cultures and communities, and as a member of the New York State Society for Clinical Social Work, I’m committed to evidence-based practices and ongoing professional development. My empathic approach allows me to listen deeply and help you make connections between your emotional experiences and the practical challenges you’re navigating.
When you’re ready, I’m here.
