About Brittney
Brittney Jackson is an MD and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 17 years of experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting challenges, grief, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related life changes.
Background and approach
She draws on a strengths-based perspective and a background that spans human services, criminal justice, and healthcare administration to shape practical, individualized care.
As Patient Services Director for the End Stage Renal Disease Network of New England, she cared for over 15,000 patients and their families, and she has provided early childhood interventions aimed at helping vulnerable families and children recover from trauma and chronic stress.
Her clinical style blends creativity with tailored therapeutic tools, using Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) as foundations for work with individuals, families, and groups. Brittney assesses psycho-educational needs and applies evidence-based strategies alongside coaching techniques to support self-esteem, career concerns, compassion fatigue, and coping with major life transitions.
Based in Connecticut and working in English, she also accepts international clients and offers multiple session formats to fit varied schedules.
Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's perspective, offering a collaborative environment where the therapist listens deeply and supports self-directed growth; this approach is helpful for issues like self-esteem, coping with life changes, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it practical for anxiety, depression, stress management, and coping strategies.Brittney treats selecting the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and the issues that matter most, then tailor a combination of methods that fit those needs rather than applying a single fixed model.
Online therapy with Brittney is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow continuity of care across locations, and support different communication styles so clients can choose what feels most comfortable while progressing toward their goals.
