About Brittany
Brittany McDonnell is an Ohio LISW with 15 years of clinical experience. She spends most days helping people cope with stress, anxiety, trauma, and addiction, and she lists social anxiety among the concerns she addresses.
She often works with clients who are dealing with intense or complex needs. That includes panic, obsessive thoughts, posttraumatic stress, and depression. Brittany also supports people through major life changes such as divorce and midlife transitions.
Workplace stress and caregiver burnout are frequent topics in her sessions. She also helps people sort through family problems, blended family dynamics, and issues connected to adoption and foster care. Substance use and eating-related concerns are part of her caseload as well.
Brittany describes her approach as grounded in evidence-based techniques and adjusted to what each person needs. In practice that means clear, practical strategies alongside time to talk through what’s happening now. She aims to be direct and matter-of-fact about steps clients can try between appointments.
She names support for young adults, women navigating life changes, LGBTQ+ people, first responders, and those affected by blended family situations. Sessions are conducted in English from her Ohio practice. If you want to proceed, use the site controls to review online therapy options and schedule a first session.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Brittany describes her practice as grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Two common tools used in evidence-based work are cognitive-behavioral strategies and trauma-focused methods. Cognitive-behavioral approaches look at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offer practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, often used for anxiety and panic. Trauma-focused methods help people process distressing events and reduce symptoms that come from past trauma.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Brittany will review your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. She checks in with people as therapy progresses and adjusts plans when something isn’t helping.
