Brittany Pettiford, MSW, LCSW

I believe that therapy can be a transformative process which encourages healing from the past and navigating through the present into a brighter future. In a safe and supportive space, clients can explore early life experiences at their own pace. As you take the courageous step into the therapy room, you’ll find knowledge and acceptance of self are the tools to encourage growth, effective coping, and peace of mind.

My approach with clients usually ranges between goal-oriented and psychodynamic. We can address specific areas of improvement non-judgmentally. We can explore early childhood experiences or address traumatic events and how to move forward while challenging negative thoughts and beliefs along the way. With the treatment centered around the client’s needs, I also acknowledge intersections between race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and other cultural aspects of the client.

I have experience in mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy which has been used with clients who have identified experiencing depression and anxiety. This can overlap with trauma-informed care for those clients who have processed trauma. I have knowledge in additional areas related to African American psychology. I also have experience with clients who work to manage their personality disorders.

You may never find a cure or solution in therapy, but healing results in the determination to achieve peace through self-exploration. I look forward to joining the next journey of healing with you!
