Brittney Stokes, LCSW

Brittney Stokes is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people navigate relationship challenges, jealousy, self-esteem struggles, career decisions, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. She approaches each person with kindness and without judgment. Brittney encourages small steps that build confidence and clearer thinking.

Brittney focuses on creating an open space where clients can speak honestly about hard feelings. She listens first and clarifies what matters most to each person before suggesting tools. Sessions tend to look at patterns of thought and behavior, and at how those patterns affect daily life and relationships.

Her work draws from client-centered therapy, which emphasizes the client’s perspective and choices. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills to manage intense emotions. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven in when they match a person’s goals.

In practical terms, Brittney helps people break big problems into smaller steps. That might mean practicing a new way of talking about feelings, trying a different routine, or testing a thought to see if it is true. She supports people dealing with grief, trauma, addictions, caregiving stress, and intimacy-related concerns.

With 11 years of experience and an LCSW credential, Brittney brings steady guidance and calm focus to the work. She asks questions, offers options, and helps clients choose what to try next based on their values and daily life.

How her approaches guide online work

Brittney uses client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on what the client cares about. That approach means the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead, helping people name goals and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps by identifying patterns of thought that cause distress and testing new, more helpful ways of thinking. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes practical emotion regulation skills for managing intense feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brittney will talk with each person about what feels useful and what does not. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use techniques between sessions, like brief mindfulness practices or written thought records, so therapy fits into everyday life.
