About Brittany

Dr. Brittany Collins combines client-centered care with evidence-informed therapies to help people navigate stress, grief, anxiety, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She brings ten years of professional experience to her practice and holds LPC and LPCC credentials, which reflect clinical training and supervisory qualifications. Dr.

Collins works from an empathetic, collaborative stance and encourages clients to build on their existing strengths as they face concerns like depression, career questions, parenting issues, and matters related to identity and LGBT concerns.

Her approach draws on several well-established methods including Internal Family Systems alongside cognitive and emotion-focused techniques, allowing her to tailor treatment to the needs of each person. She has supported clients through family-of-origin issues, blended family challenges, abandonment wounds, codependency, communication and commitment struggles, and trauma and abuse recovery.

Dr. Collins also addresses practical areas such as caregiver stress, body image and eating-related issues, divorce and separation, and fatherhood concerns.

Based in Ohio, she accepts international clients and offers multiple session formats to increase accessibility. Prospective clients begin by selecting the Start Therapy option, completing a brief matching questionnaire, and scheduling according to her availability.

Using IFS, Client-Centered Work, and CBT Online

Dr. Collins integrates Internal Family Systems, client-centered methods, and cognitive behavioral techniques into her online offerings to address emotional struggles and practical life challenges. Internal Family Systems helps clients explore different internal parts and their roles, which can be useful for understanding feelings like shame, fear, or anger and for processing trauma and relational wounds. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, reflective listening, and building on a person’s strengths to create a therapeutic plan that aligns with personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers structured tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often helping with anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time as needs evolve. Together they determine whether parts work, reflective listening, skills training, or a blend of methods best supports progress.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, support clients in different locations, and allow follow-up between live sessions when helpful.
