About Brittany

Brittany Powell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in West Virginia with 11 years of experience. She works with adults on common struggles such as anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related concerns. Her practice also addresses addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and relationship and family-related problems.

Powell supports people facing major life changes and the ongoing stress of caregiving or chronic illness. She helps those managing anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, and issues around intimacy. She also works with people dealing with complicated family of origin dynamics and guilt or shame.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people recognize patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, and then practices different ways of responding. Sessions focus on concrete skills and small changes that can be used day to day.

Brittany aims to make the work straightforward and team-based. She doesn’t promise quick fixes, but she does work with people to set realistic goals and try new strategies between sessions. Her background includes supporting those with addiction, trauma histories, and end-of-life or hospice concerns.

Sessions are in English and delivered from West Virginia. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling when they prepare to book.

How sessions work

How CBT is used in online work and what to expect

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that reinforce problems. It often involves short exercises and behavioral experiments to try between sessions, which can help with anxiety, depression, and mood regulation.

When addressing addictions or trauma-related symptoms, CBT techniques can be combined with structured coping skills and relapse-prevention planning. These approaches aim to give practical tools people can use in day-to-day life to manage urges, emotional reactions, and distressing memories.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to review goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. Together they adapt strategies and try different techniques until a workable fit is found.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, since specific online options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult. Talk with the therapist during the first meeting about how to make sessions fit into your daily routine.
