Brittany Blake , LMHC

Brittany Blake is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts. She centers care on people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, intimacy concerns, and LGBT-related questions. Her style is flexible and person-focused, so sessions can be relaxed or structured depending on what a person prefers.

Brittany combines mind and body perspectives in sessions. She is also a yoga instructor and often brings mindfulness tools into conversations when clients want them. This can mean breath work, grounding exercises, or simple practices to use between meetings.

She draws on seven years of clinical experience to support people through relationship challenges, body image and identity concerns, and difficult life transitions like divorce or fertility struggles. Brittany also works with issues connected to adoption and foster care, chronic illness and pain, and experiences of domestic violence.

People exploring kink, BDSM, or alternative sexual cultures can find a nonjudgmental space to talk through boundaries, consent, and intimacy. She also addresses eating and food-related issues, control struggles, and communication problems that affect daily life.

Brittany approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people set goals, try practical tools, and adjust the plan as needed. Sessions use language that is straightforward and easy to follow, with suggestions that can be practiced between appointments.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Brittany uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a mind-body approach. Mindfulness is a common tool she offers - short practices that teach breath work, grounding, and present-moment noticing to reduce anxiety and help with stress. She also brings somatic-informed ideas, which focus on bodily sensations and gentle movement or breath to address trauma responses and chronic pain.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Brittany works with each person to decide which techniques feel useful and comfortable, then adjusts goals and methods as therapy progresses. She invites feedback and checks in often to make sure the plan matches the client’s needs and pace.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video visits let people work face-to-face when visual cues help. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text messaging are convenient for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life and make it easier to try different ways of working.
