About Brittany

Brittany Powell is a Licensed Professional Counselor in West Virginia with 11 years of clinical experience. She holds a Master of Education focused on Mental Health Counseling and has spent over a decade helping people manage mood and stress-related concerns.

She works with anxiety and depression in straightforward ways. She also helps people coping with addiction, trauma, and histories of abuse. Grief and major life changes are part of her practice, including support after the loss of a family member, friend, or pet.

Brittany describes counseling as a team effort. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where practical steps are discussed and tried. She is clear that there is no quick fix, and that steady effort can lead to better day-to-day functioning.

Her approach uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Sessions typically include talking through problems, setting small goals, and practicing new coping skills between meetings.

People come for a range of concerns beyond mood and addiction. These include relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, ADHD, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, family of origin problems, and end-of-life and hospice support. Brittany also works with issues such as codependency, jealousy, and guilt and shame.

She communicates in English and practices in West Virginia. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session, which allows a clear plan to be made together.

How CBT and practical work translate to online sessions

Brittany uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with stress.

Her work emphasizes setting small, achievable goals and practicing new skills between meetings. That makes it easy to test strategies in real life and then talk about what did or did not work in the next session. Finding which techniques fit best is a shared process between client and therapist.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since options were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt exercises to the online setting, using worksheets, behavioral experiments, and step-by-step plans that can be used between sessions.
