About Brittney

Brittney Jackson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 17 years of experience. She practices from Connecticut and works with adults on stress, anxiety, family concerns, parenting, trauma and abuse, and related issues such as grief, anger, and depression.

She has a background spanning human services, criminal justice, and healthcare. In a prior role she served as Patient Services Director for the End Stage Renal Disease Network of New England and supported more than 15,000 patients and their families. She has also delivered early childhood interventions for families affected by trauma and chronic stress.

Brittney uses a strengths-based perspective. She assesses learning and support needs and offers counseling in ways that fit each person. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon. She draws on creativity to help people test new approaches at home and work.

Her work includes elements of Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That mix is used to address relationship patterns, parenting struggles, mood concerns, and coping when life changes feel overwhelming.

People meeting with Brittney can expect straightforward discussion about problems and options. She helps clarify which skills or perspectives might make everyday life easier. When goals are set, she supports incremental progress and regular check-ins to see what is helping and what needs to change.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Brittney uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person's priorities and to create a collaborative plan. This approach centers the adult's own goals and preferences and helps bring clarity to family and parenting decisions.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, and practical routines for parenting or work stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used to identify patterns in close relationships and to guide new ways of connecting that reduce reactivity and increase understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Brittney will work with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is reviewed over time and adjusted as progress is made.

Session practicalities should be confirmed before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting, work, or caregiving by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to use homework tools and skill practice between meetings.
