Welcome to the first step of the rest of your life. Deciding to begin your therapeutic journey can feel overwhelming and sometimes impossible. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I’m passionate about helping people feel heard, understood, and empowered. I strive to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences and build the tools they need to move forward. My approach is collaborative and grounded in respect for each person’s unique story and strengths.
Hey! My name is Brittany Wallace. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who specializes in treating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and trauma in adults. I have over 8 years of experience providing therapeutic care in various settings such as outpatient treatment facilities, collegiate programs, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, and the K-12 school system.
I am passionate about working with students, adults, couples and families to help them strengthen emotional wellness, build confidence, strengthen coping skills and build healthier relationships. I help clients to navigate anxiety, depression, anger management, trauma, life transitions, substance use and abuse, relationship concerns, cultural identity, men's issues, and spiritual integration.
I use personalized, evidence-based counseling to help clients understand how distorted perceptions and thoughts can contribute to painful feelings and unwanted behaviors. I also build practical skills you can use daily to manage stress, improve relationships, and create meaningful change.
I create a welcoming, judgment-free space where my clients feel heard, understood, and supported. I approach each person with empathy, respect, and personalized care. Connect with me to begin working toward healing, growth, and meaningful change. Let's Ascend!
I have 12 years’ experience counseling all backgrounds and ages including men, women, mothers, professionals, veterans, and teens who have dealt with anxiety, depression, addiction, family and career issues, etc. My clients often tell me that I have a unique way of explaining ideas and perspectives to them that makes it easy for them to understand and apply.
I work with adolescents, adults, Veterans, and families navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress management, substance use, and emotional conflict.
I have a particular passion for supporting children and families healing from trauma and disrupted attachment. I have extensive experience providing attachment-focused therapy for adopted children, children in foster care, and their caregivers — working alongside families to strengthen emotional bonds, improve communication, build trust, and address behavioral concerns.
With more than 20 years of experience, I've worked across private practice, community-based mental health, managed care, substance abuse treatment, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. I bring warmth and steady expertise to every stage of the healing process.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Savannah
> Finding addiction therapists in Savannah starts with identifying the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, compulsive behaviors, cravings, and the impact these concerns may have on relationships or daily life. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to address. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction-informed care. Some people also work with a prescriber as part of their care team. > > In a smaller city like Savannah, local in-person options may be more limited, so virtual appointments can help expand your search across Georgia. Recovery can change over time, and it may help to look for a therapist who describes their approach as respectful, practical, and non-judgmental. You can also compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist talks about addiction care, communication style, and what sessions may look like. > > Addiction therapy in Savannah can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you find therapists who may accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer virtual or in-person care. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs upfront, browse therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
