About Brittany

Brittany Neal is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting, self-esteem, grief, eating issues, anger, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar disorder.

She uses straightforward methods to help people manage difficult feelings and reactions. Her work includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer thinking patterns, and processing painful memories when needed.

Brittany also attends to issues linked to culture and discrimination. She supports people dealing with multicultural concerns, experiences of prejudice, and identity-related stress. She addresses OCD patterns, postpartum depression, attachment and abandonment worries, and struggles with isolation or grief.

In the room she aims to collaborate with each person on realistic goals. That can mean learning new ways to respond when anger flares, practicing communication skills for tense relationships, or planning coping steps for busy parenting days. She frames work as a series of clear, manageable steps rather than broad statements.

Brittany accepts international clients and works in English. Her practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies with location. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online therapy options button.

Approaches used in online sessions

Many clients find Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helpful for changing thought patterns and learning practical tools for anxiety, anger, and stress. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps people process upsetting memories and the emotions tied to them. It can be useful for traumatic experiences that continue to affect mood and reactions, and the work often pairs memory processing with grounding and coping skills.

Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to make changes but feel stuck. It involves clear conversations about goals, exploring motivation, and building small, achievable steps toward those goals.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That means sessions can shift between skills practice, processing difficult memories, or focused goal planning as needed.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a workday break or video sessions when face-to-face travel isn’t possible. Licensed professionals can adapt methods to the constraints of different session setups, focusing on practical steps people can use between meetings.
