About Brittany
Brittany Neal is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Wisconsin who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. She uses straightforward, practical approaches to help clients find clearer ways forward. Brittany writes and talks plainly so parents and busy adults can quickly understand what therapy will feel like.
She draws on tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address worried thinking and unhelpful behavior patterns.
Background and approach
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is used when past events keep coming back and causing distress. Motivational Interviewing can help people clarify their goals and find the motivation to change small habits that matter. Brittany also brings attention to cultural and identity factors that shape experiences of stress and discrimination.
That means she listens for how race, sexual orientation, and life context affect mood, relationships, and self-image. She supports people working through grief, parenting strain, workplace burnout, and ADHD-related challenges in daily life. Sessions are collaborative and practical.
Clients can expect to set clear goals, try doable strategies between sessions, and track progress in simple ways. Brittany aims to make therapy feel like a useful part of everyday life rather than a separate burden. Her background includes six years of clinical experience in varied settings.
She combines evidence-based methods with attention to each person’s story to help them build routines, calm, and clearer decision-making.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Her work uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, with straightforward exercises to practice between sessions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many daily challenges because it focuses on concrete steps that can change how someone feels.She also offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which helps when past traumatic events continue to cause strong reactions. EMDR in online sessions involves guided processing and focused attention to reduce the intensity of upsetting memories.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and the issues they bring. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most in everyday life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging make it easier to check in between meetings or fit short sessions into a busy day. These options help people maintain steady work on goals while juggling family, school, or work commitments.
