About Brittany
Brittany Olson is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana with nine years of experience. She has worked across community and residential settings and has experience in early childhood, children, and adolescents. Her work includes prevention and several years in the addictions field.
She helps people who face stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, substance issues, and anger. She also supports people dealing with grief, parenting strain, career stress, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, and trouble with self-esteem. Her background includes time at an LGBTQ+ center and work with adoption, foster care, and attachment issues.
Brittany uses straightforward, goal-focused sessions. She and the client set practical goals and a treatment plan together. Sessions focus on clear steps rather than vague talk, with attention to what will make day-to-day life more manageable.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Trauma-Focused Therapy are part of her clinical toolkit. Those approaches are used to help people change unhelpful thinking, manage strong emotions, and process distressing events. She also draws on her addictions experience when substance use is part of the concern.
People who prefer a direct and respectful style may find this approach fits them. She aims to work collaboratively and to be honest about tasks and progress. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
Background detail: Brittany has experience across prevention, community, and residential programs. She has worked with early childhood populations and has worked in settings that address addiction recovery and family of origin issues. Her practice is conducted in English in Montana.
How her approaches translate to online work
CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT sessions often focus on brief skills, behavior experiments, and homework that can be practiced between visits. Trauma-Focused Therapy supports processing difficult or distressing experiences in a paced way, using techniques to reduce overwhelming reactions and build coping skills. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brittany will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means reviewing what feels manageable, testing tools, and adjusting the plan together over time. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking because the original profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, a shorter check-in might be done by phone when time is tight, or a video session can allow for a more conversational, face-to-face style. These practical options can reduce travel and help people keep therapy on a regular schedule while they work on managing anger, trauma symptoms, mood, or addictive behaviors.Areas of expertise
