Britt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a National Certified Counselor (NCC). She obtained her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Wofford College and earned her Master’s in Education and Education Specialist degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Clemson University. Prior to earning her Masters, Britt gained clinical experience while working at the Marcus Autism Center in Atlanta. Observing the impactful work the counselors at Art It Out helped Britt discover her own passion for counseling! After witnessing firsthand the important work being done by the therapists at Art It Out, Britt made it her goal to pursue her Master’s degree and return to the group as a counselor.
While earning her Master’s degree, Britt enhanced her clinical experience by completing a practicum at Carolina Family Services in Greenville, SC. She then served as an intern at Converse College Wellness Center, providing individual therapy to college-aged students.
Britt leverages the power of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and expressive arts techniques to help her clients and their families achieve their goals. She believes in the importance of taking a person-centered approach to therapy, creating a climate for growth and healing. Britt’s mission is to help clients to regain control and face their challenges. She enjoys helping upper elementary, adolescents, teens, and adults as they navigate through various issues, including anxiety, depression, anger, emotional regulation, poor self-esteem, family or relational issues, life transitions or major life changes, and grief and loss.
Britt’s dog, Iggy, is also ready to provide support as a certified therapy dog! Iggy’s calming presence helps ground clients and makes discussing difficult topics a little bit easier. Her presence is always optional, as some clients have allergies or prefer not to be around animals.
