About Brittany

Brittany Meredith is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with five years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, self-esteem, motivation, and related concerns like grief, sleeping problems, and coping with life changes. Brittany emphasizes the client's own knowledge of their story and meets people where they are. She aims to offer steady support as people take the first steps toward change.

In sessions she listens first and builds on existing strengths. She uses practical tools to help manage anxious thoughts and daily habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavior changes. Mindfulness exercises and client-centered conversations help people notice what matters to them in the moment.

Brittany also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings feel intense. Existential therapy ideas come into play when people want to tackle big questions about meaning, values, and life direction. These approaches are blended to match what each person brings to the room.

Her work can include attention to relationship strain, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and challenges tied to ADHD or mood concerns. She supports people dealing with trauma, abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, and chronic health-related stress. Progress often starts with one clear goal and a few simple, doable steps.

People meet her in a calm, straightforward style. She encourages honest conversation and practical experiments between sessions. To begin, the usual process is to pick a goal, try a few strategies, and adjust as needed.

Approaches that guide online work

Brittany draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and daily habits. CBT often involves setting small experiments between sessions to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep issues.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT tools can be useful when feelings feel overwhelming or when relationships are strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Brittany works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, needs, and preferences. She will check in regularly about what is working and adapt plans over time so the work stays relevant and doable.

If you prefer online sessions, confirm the specific session formats available before booking since the biography does not list formats. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into a busy life, allows shorter check-ins when needed, reduces travel time, or makes it easier to keep appointments around work and caregiving responsibilities. Licensed professionals can use these options to focus on changing thoughts and everyday habits without needing lengthy commutes.
