Hello,
I am Dr. Jaeger and I welcome you to my practice. I look forward to sitting with you, hearing your story, and developing a plan to help you with your concerns and needs.
I attended Michigan State University for undergraduate studies before earning my Bachelor of Science degree from KMC International Center, Manipal University. I obtained an MD from American University of Antigua College of Medicine. Following medical school, I completed a residency in Psychiatry at Detroit Wayne County Authority Health, where my training focused on serving medically underserved communities. During residency, I also earned a certificate in Population Health and Health Equity from the University of Michigan School of Public Health. I served as chief resident in my third year of training. I am board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.

A lot of people who find their way to me have spent years in a world that wasn't quite built for the way their brain works, and they're still figuring out what that means. I'm Brittany, a Neurodiversity affirming Licensed Clinical Social Worker working with adolescents, adults, and seniors. I specialize in supporting Autistic teens and adults, including those who received their diagnosis later in life, alongside people navigating anxiety, OCD, trauma, ADD/ADHD, and relationship challenges. Clients often tell me I'm the first therapist who has really understood them.
Welcome! I commend you for taking the first step on your journey towards healing. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I am dedicated to helping individuals, adolescents and families navigate life’s challenges and build stronger, healthier relationships. With a compassionate, client-centered approach, I provide a safe space for exploring emotional and relational struggles, offering tools for growth and healing. In addition to my experience in Clinical Psychology, I also have a background in both the Creative Arts/Entertainment and Social Work with Children/Adolescents in the Public Sector, including the Education system. Based in Los Angeles, I have extensive experience working with professionals in the entertainment Industry, helping clients recognize and apply their skills. As a prior career as Social Worker, I also have extensive experience working with Children and Families.
