About Brittany

Brittany Powell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in West Virginia. She chose counseling to help people navigate hard times and has built a career doing just that. Her work focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier. She keeps sessions down to earth and centered on what matters now.

She has eleven years of experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. She also helps those coping with addiction, trauma, and a history of abuse. Grief and major life changes are part of her caseload, along with stressors that come from caregiving or chronic illness.

Brittany uses approaches that help people change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. She talks through skills that people can use between sessions. Treatment is a team effort where the person’s goals steer the work.

People often come for help with relationship strain, intimacy-related issues, communication problems, and codependency. She also addresses anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She respects each person’s pace and focuses on small, concrete steps toward relief.

Her training includes a Master of Education with a focus on Mental Health Counseling. She practices in West Virginia and offers sessions in English. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options to match their needs.

CBT-focused care and practical online options

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and change the behaviors that keep problems going. It often includes short exercises and skill-building between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or address addictive patterns.

When trauma or addiction are part of the story, sessions focus on grounding skills and clear coping strategies. The work emphasizes what a person can do day to day to feel more in control and less overwhelmed.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made, and sessions are adjusted together.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so they match your schedule and needs. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins after a stressful day. Some people prefer shorter, phone-based check-ins while others choose full video sessions; check what this therapist currently offers when you sign up.
