About Brittany

Brittany Powell is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in West Virginia with more than a decade of clinical experience. She holds a Master of Education focused on mental health counseling and has spent years supporting people through anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma.

Background and approach

Her background includes work with grief and major life transitions as well as a variety of mood and stress-related challenges. Her approach centers on collaborative care that respects each person’s goals and strengths.

Brittany emphasizes practical, evidence-informed strategies, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build more effective coping skills. She frames the therapeutic relationship as a team effort and encourages active participation from clients as they work toward change.

Clients can expect a warm, caring environment where emotional safety and clear goals guide sessions. Brittany has also addressed caregiving stress, chronic illness and pain, family-of-origin concerns, and substance-related issues, applying supportive, skill-focused interventions to real-life problems.

Her practice aims to help people manage symptoms, navigate loss, and develop tools for greater resilience and well-being.

CBT and Practical Strategies for Online Care

Brittany uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients recognize thought patterns that contribute to distress and to practice skills that change how they respond to stressful situations. CBT is often applied to anxiety, depression, grief responses, and many stress-related concerns by breaking problems into manageable steps and building concrete coping tools.

She also emphasizes collaborative, skills-focused work that pairs insight with action. The therapeutic process is framed as a joint effort in which the therapist and client identify goals, try out techniques, and adjust the plan together based on progress and preferences. This collaborative stance helps tailor methods to each person’s needs and values.

Online therapy with Brittany is offered through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue care during life transitions, and use shorter or more frequent check-ins when useful. Licensed professionals can adapt interventions to each format so that practical, CBT-informed work continues even when meetings are remote.
