EXPERIENCE 

Brittany is a fully licensed mental health counselor with over two years of experience at RTS. She began her career at RTS as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and has since transitioned to a fully licensed role. Prior to joining RTS, Brittany gained valuable experience in the mental health and substance use fields. She started as a Residential Treatment Worker, later completing an internship as a Substance Use Counselor at a residential inpatient treatment center. Additionally, Brittany has worked in outpatient mental health and substance use counseling, allowing her to further expand her expertise. Driven by a deep passion for helping others, Brittany is committed to making a meaningful impact in her clients' lives.

SPECIALTY AREAS 

Brittany specializes in working with both adolescents and adults. She is drawn to their creativity, playfulness, and, at times, the sarcasm and humor they often express. Brittany enjoys helping adolescents find a safe space to voice their thoughts, as they often struggle to be heard. She is dedicated to understanding their world and helping them navigate their sense of identity within it.

WHY THE MENTAL HEALTH FIELD? 

Though Brittany didn’t initially set out to work in the mental health field, her own experiences with mental health challenges and witnessing loved ones struggle with mental health and substance use ultimately inspired her career. The loss of a family member to depression and substance use further fueled her desire to become a therapist. Brittany finds great purpose in supporting others through their struggles, and she is consistently inspired by the resilience and strength people show. Helping individuals recognize their own strength and resilience is one of the most rewarding aspects of her work.

PERSONAL

In her personal life, Brittany enjoys attending concerts, reading, spending time outdoors, and enjoying quality time with her husband, family, and friends.
