Trauma, PTSD, and Complex Trauma

Brittany has focused a large part of her career on the treatment of trauma and PTSD. She has extensive training and experience working with all types of trauma affecting individuals, first responders, service people, veterans, therapists, and more. In trauma treatment, Brittany primarily utilizes EMDR and clinical hypnosis, and integrates solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, CBT, mindfulness, deep brain reorienting (DBR) and other modalities. Through the development of a strong therapeutic relationship, and Brittany's wealth of experience, she is confident she can help you overcome your traumatic experiences.

Anxiety Disorders and Phobias

A large part of Brittany's work has focused on the treatment of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, performance anxiety, and panic disorders. Brittany can help you understand where the anxiety comes from, what triggers it and how to manage it. Brittany is skilled at helping you develop a tool kit filled with effective coping skill and strategies that you can confidently carry with you, even outside of therapy. Whenever you feel overcome with anxiety, you can refer to your tool kit to help you through it. Brittany is also skilled in treating fears and phobias.

Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours

BFRBs are widely neglected concerns, which impact a large number of people in our community. Hair-pulling, skin-picking, severe nail biting, nose picking, and cheek biting are all common BFRBs, that are treatable. With a knowledgeable therapist, you can overcome the shame, stop the behaviours, and live the kind of life you want to. Brittany has training specific to BFRBs, including the Comprehensive Behavioural Model for BFRBs (ComB), and specialized EMDR training. She can help you come up with an individualized treatment plan, as she knows that BFRBs have many different characteristics.

Grief and Loss

Everyone experiences grief and loss at some point in their life. Grief can be caused by the loss of a loved one, a pet, or even a job. Brittany's personal experiences, combined with her training and experience, allow her to empathetically, and effectively help individuals overcome grief, including traumatic grief. When you are ready, Brittany can help you reconnect to the positive memories you have, and learn to move forward.

Pain and Chronic Pain

Brittany has a special interest in helping those experiencing pain, and chronic pain. Having seen success with clinical hypnosis and EMDR pain protocols, Brittany would love to help you reduce your pain, and get back to activities you enjoy.

Bipolar Disorder

The ups and downs related to Bipolar Disorders can be exhausting. Brittany has been working with these disorders since the beginning or her practicum, and is confident in helping clients accept their diagnosis, overcome shame, and manage symptoms of bipolar depression and mania.
