Brittney Stokes, LCSW

Brittney Stokes is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing relationship struggles, low self-esteem, career stress, depression, and anxiety. She offers straightforward support for parenting challenges, grief, addictions, and life transitions. Brittney encourages honest conversation and a calm space where people can talk about what matters most to them.

She uses practical methods from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going. Dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness help people manage strong emotions and stay present. Motivational interviewing supports those who want to change habits or tackle addictions.

Brittney aims to make sessions collaborative. She listens first, then helps set small, achievable goals. Conversations focus on what a person wants to feel and do differently, and on skills to get there.

With 11 years of experience and the LCSW credential, she brings steady support and clear tools. Her work often covers attachment issues, codependency, infidelity, polyamory or non-monogamous relationship concerns, and intimacy-related struggles. Brittney also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life questions, and complicated grief.

People who reach out can expect a practical tone and gentle challenge when needed. She invites clients to take the next step when they feel ready and to use therapy as a place to try new ways of relating and coping.

How her approaches shape online work

Client-centered work focuses on listening and building trust. In online sessions this means the therapist follows each person's lead, asks questions that matter to them, and helps set goals that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and relationship problems.

Brittney treats finding the right approach as a team process. She will discuss options and try methods that match the client's goals and comfort level. Clients and therapist check in regularly and adjust the plan as needed so techniques feel useful and realistic.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice new communication skills between sessions and bring real-life situations into conversation for immediate feedback.
