Brittany is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a master of social work degree from Walden University. With over seven years of experience in the field of social work, she brings a wide-ranging background that includes working with the Children’s Division, in hospital settings, with geriatrics, and school-based social work. This diverse experience has given her a deep understanding of individuals across the lifespan and the unique challenges they face. Helping others through therapy is more than just a career, it’s a calling. Brittany believes deeply in the power of trauma-informed care and support, and the healing that comes from having a safe, judgment-free space to process and grow. She also believes in the importance of identifying the root cause of symptoms, rather than just managing surface-level issues.

Welcome!
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and have been practicing 5 years. I’m a compassionate and down-to-earth therapist who values authenticity and connection. I treat client's age 5 and up with a variety of mental health disorders.
As a licensed clinical social worker, I believe therapy should meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. I often compare therapy to going to the gym: it is dedicated time to strengthen the way you understand and respond to your thoughts, emotions, relationships and behaviors.
My approach is warm, direct and collaborative. You can expect empathy, compassion and acceptance, along with thoughtful questions and practical strategies that help you make meaningful changes. Your needs, experiences and goals will guide our work together.
I support adults and adolescents experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, relationship challenges and major life transitions. I also have experience working with concerns related to sexual orientation, identity, suicide prevention, family dynamics and professional stress.
You do not have to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. We can start with what is happening right now and work together from there.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Kansas City
Searching for couples therapists in Kansas City starts with knowing what you want to work on together. Couples therapy may focus on communication, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Some people search for Kansas City marriage counseling or a Kansas City marriage counselor, while others look for couples counseling in Kansas City. Across these searches, it helps to look for a therapist with training in couples work, such as a licensed marriage and family therapist, Gottman Method training, or Emotionally Focused Therapy.
In Kansas City, finding one therapist who works for both partners often means balancing location, schedule, session format, and fit. In-person appointments may work well if you want a shared space outside the home, while virtual appointments can make it easier to coordinate around two calendars. As you compare Kansas City couples counseling options, review each therapist’s bio for their approach to working with partners, the concerns they list, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation to assess fit before you book.
Couples therapy in Kansas City 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 care begins. Headway helps you search for couples therapists who are accepting new patients, compare availability, verify insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, so you can review bios, find a therapist who matches your needs, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
