About Brittany

Brittany Stephen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who focuses on Women's issues alongside relationship, trauma, grief, LGBT, and self-esteem concerns. She brings nine years of experience in mental health and aims to make therapy a collaborative, down-to-earth process. Brittany aims to create a calm space where people can be honest about pain and make small, steady changes.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and blends talk therapy with creative options when helpful. Musical expression is sometimes included to help name emotions or process memories when words fall short. Sessions are practical and paced to the individual - there is room for emotion, reflection, and skill building.

Brittany works with people facing relationship and attachment struggles, grief, trauma and abuse, and questions about identity. She also supports those dealing with abandonment, communication problems, body image, chronic illness and disability, and codependency. LGBT concerns and neurodivergent-affirming care are part of her focus.

Her style is warm and affirming. Brittany listens for patterns that keep someone stuck and helps them try different ways of coping. She encourages clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and more self-compassion.

Brittany holds LPC credentials in Georgia and Washington, D.C., and brings nearly a decade of practical work in community and clinical settings. Her aim is to meet each person where they are and work together toward clearer choices and gentler self-care.

To begin someone would typically complete an intake and set goals, then choose session rhythms that fit their life and needs.

Approaches and flexible online care

Evidence-based talk therapy helps people identify unhelpful patterns, practice new ways of communicating, and manage strong emotions. This approach is useful for relationship struggles, attachment concerns, anxiety, and grief because it focuses on clear, practical steps and problem-solving.

Creative expressive work, such as using music to name or process feelings, can supplement talk therapy when words are not enough. This method supports emotional regulation and can help people access memories or feelings tied to trauma and identity in a different way.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan together so therapy fits your needs and pace.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you mirror a traditional session when face-to-face interactions feel important. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and messaging work well for short reflections, moment-to-moment coaching, or fitting therapy into a busy day. Together these options provide flexibility so people can engage in the way that works best for their schedule and comfort.
