About Brittany
Brittany Burke is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Missouri with 11 years of experience. She works with adults who are struggling with things like anger, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, grief, sleep problems, and life transitions. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping people manage strong emotions and daily challenges.
Brittany focuses on emotional regulation and learning concrete skills to reduce distress. She and the client set goals together and build a plan that addresses whatever brought the person to therapy. Sessions include skill practice and problem-solving, not just talk about feelings.
She often helps people who have had contact with the criminal justice system or legal issues, drawing on her experience to navigate those specific concerns. Brittany also works on issues such as abandonment, impulsivity, isolation, and communication problems. She aims to make progress in ways that fit the client's life and responsibilities.
Her methods include client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior approaches, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. These tools are used to teach coping skills, manage anger and cravings, and reduce cycles of negative thinking and behavior.
Brittany uses active listening and validation during sessions. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where clients learn skills and track changes over time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Brittany uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, and dialectical behavior tools in session. Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can clarify what matters to them and set meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts, feelings, and behaviors into steps so clients can test and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers specific emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills useful for managing anger and high-intensity emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will review a client's goals and preferences and collaborate on which methods to try first. That planning can include short skills practice, tracking progress, and adjusting techniques as needed so sessions stay practical and goal-oriented.
The biography does not list the exact online or in-person formats she uses, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins on tight days, or reduce travel time. Many people find that practicing CBT or DBT skills between sessions helps translate what they learn into real-life situations.
