About Brittany
Brittany Drake is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in Florida with five years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger, and life transitions. Brittany also supports people through parenting concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, career questions, and ADHD-related challenges.
She uses straightforward conversations to help people notice what is getting in the way. Sessions focus on practical steps that fit everyday life. Brittany draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help with emotional regulation and shifting unhelpful thoughts.
Her approach also centers on Client-Centered Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means she listens for strengths and builds on small, concrete changes. Motivational Interviewing techniques are used when someone wants to strengthen motivation or make a change but feels stuck.
In a typical meeting she helps people name the patterns behind anger, resentment, or sudden outbursts. She works on communication skills, problem solving, and short-term strategies to reduce escalation. Sessions can also address the longer-term effects of trauma, postpartum depression, and caregiver stress.
People who come to her often want clear tools they can use right away. Brittany aims to be practical and direct while respecting each person’s pace. To begin, she asks a few questions so sessions focus on what matters most to the client.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. Online sessions using this approach prioritize what the client notices and values, which helps clarify goals for managing anger and relationship tension.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. In an online session CBT can teach concrete tools such as thought records and behavioral experiments to reduce reactive responses and lower daily stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Practicing DBT strategies in virtual sessions can build skills for stopping escalation, improving communication, and managing intense emotions when they arise.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work breaks, reduce travel time, or have a shorter check-in when needed. Licensed professionals often use these advantages to help people practice tools in real life and follow up on progress without requiring long commutes.
