Brittany Lane , AASW

Brittany Lane is an AASW social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and family-related concerns. She also supports people struggling with self-esteem, compassion fatigue and big life changes. Her approach aims to make conversations practical and calm so people can take the next steps forward.

Brittany keeps sessions respectful and sensitive. She adapts the pace and focus to each person’s circumstances. That might mean talking through feelings about loss, practising strategies to ease anxiety, or developing clearer ways to communicate in relations that cause strain.

Her work blends talking with practical exercises. Techniques draw on acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioural tools and mindfulness skills. She also uses client-centred listening to help people feel heard and understood while they try new ways of coping.

Brittany has five years of professional experience in Australia and holds the AASW credential. She is used to helping people who face abandonment worries, attachment issues, body image concerns, blended family stress, fertility worries and the pressure of caregiving roles.

Sessions are tailored to what each person wants to achieve. Brittany will work alongside clients to set realistic goals and check progress. She aims to help people build skills that fit their daily life and move towards greater wellbeing.

Online approaches that focus on skills and values

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It often suits people facing grief, emptiness, or big life changes who want to live in line with what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps to change thinking and behaviour, useful for anxiety, stress and low self-esteem. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises listening and empathy so the person feels understood before making changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey. Brittany works together with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals and comfort level. That collaborative process means she may combine ACT, CBT and client-centred listening so sessions feel relevant and manageable.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging can fit into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving or other commitments.
