About Brittani
Brittani Senser is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Minnesota with nine years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, addictions, and related concerns including social anxiety and phobia. She also supports people dealing with relationship and communication problems, feelings of isolation, and life-purpose questions.
Senser uses practical, talk-based approaches in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help people notice thought and behavior patterns and practice different ways of responding. She also uses client-centered listening and psychodynamic ideas to understand how past experiences shape present reactions.
Her background includes work addressing chemical dependency and supporting adult students as they adjust after school. She holds a Minnesota LICSW and has experience running trainings and curriculum related to youth suicide prevention for parents, teachers, clinicians, and young people aged 10 to 24.
In sessions she focuses on concrete skills and reflection. That can mean learning breathing and grounding methods for panic, testing small changes in social situations, or talking through core beliefs that fuel shame and avoidance. Sessions also include practical planning for behavior change and relapse prevention when addictions are involved.
People who feel stuck by worry, social fear, or repeated patterns often come to her for steady, skill-focused work. Brittani encourages small steps and regular check-ins to track progress and adjust what’s being tried.
How her approaches map to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people feel heard and clarify what matters to them, which supports discussions about social anxiety and life goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches steps to test new actions; it is often used for panic, social fears, and mood problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance during stressful situations.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brittani will talk with the client about their goals and preferences, and then try methods that fit those goals. That collaborative process means approaches can shift as progress and needs become clearer.
