Brittney Thomas (she/her)

My Background and Approach

I have worked in a variety of settings including hospice, residential mental health for youth, crisis intervention, medical social work, long-term care, and school-based therapy. I have worked with ages all accross the lifespan. In the outpatient setting I have most experience working with ages 10-16, 50+, those experiencing grief, and those experiencing anxiety and life transitions. I don't believe there are any theories or therapies that are one-size fits all, so I appreciate and utilize components from mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, somatic therapy, and strengths based. When appropriate I enjoy using humor as a tool. A smile or a moment of laughter can cross boundaries of age, culture, or background, reminding us of our shared humanity. In laughter we can often find connection.

My Values as a Therapist

Our current world is very heavy I find that most of us are needing a space for emotional release or decompression. I beileve everyone deserves and is entitled to a space where they can show up and be their true authentic selves.
