Brittany Byers, LMSW, LISW

Brittany Byers is a licensed social worker in Ohio who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, depression, ADHD, and relationship or parenting challenges. She frames therapy as a partnership and invites clients to use their strengths to make changes. Her approach is straightforward and focused on practical steps that fit everyday life.

Brittany earned a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Walden University in 2015 and holds the Licensed Master Social Worker and Licensed Independent Social Worker credentials. She brings ten years of professional experience working in behavioral health settings and community care. That background informs a style that values clear goals and steady progress.

In sessions she centers the client’s perspective and encourages active collaboration. She uses techniques from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. Those tools are used to address symptoms and to strengthen coping skills for daily situations.

Brittany has worked with people who have experienced physical trauma and emotional abuse and supports those managing bipolar disorder, substance use concerns, and co-occurring conditions. She also assists clients dealing with caregiver stress, family-of-origin issues, codependency, and communication or commitment struggles.

Her aim is to create a clear path forward, whether that looks like short-term problem solving or longer-term support for life changes. She encourages anyone thinking about therapy to take the first step and consider what goals matter most to them.

How these approaches look in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client’s perspective. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps the client identify their own goals and strengths. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and works on small practical experiments to change unhelpful habits. Mindfulness therapy emphasizes grounding and present-moment skills that help lower reactivity and increase attention to daily experience.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying short skill-building sessions first or blending several techniques over time to find what helps most.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, support quicker check-ins, and allow for consistent follow-up between appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work well in remote sessions, focusing on practical skills and real-life goals rather than abstract concepts.
