About Brittany
Brittany Olson is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana with nine years of clinical experience. She has worked across prevention, community, and residential settings and has experience in early childhood, children, and adolescent work. Her background includes time in addictions and an internship at an LGBTQ+ center.
She is direct in her approach and focuses on clear goals and a treatment plan agreed with the client. Sessions emphasize practical steps people can use to manage stress, anxiety, anger, or problems with substance use. Brittany aims to help clients notice patterns and try different ways of responding to difficult feelings.
Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, depression, eating issues, relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, and ADHD. She also works with people dealing with career pressure, codependency, attachment and family-of-origin issues, and chronic illness or caregiver stress. Anger and coping with life changes are specifically listed among her focus areas.
Brittany uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy in her work. That typically means looking at thoughts and behavior that keep problems going, and using practical strategies to change them. For trauma-related issues she integrates approaches that attend to painful memories while focusing on stabilization and safety skills.
People who prefer straightforward, goal-focused sessions may find her style helpful. Before booking, confirm current session options and any practical details through the site's matching and scheduling flow.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Brittany uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and experiment with different behaviors. CBT often includes practical exercises and short homework tasks to try between sessions, which can be easy to track in online work.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events are part of current difficulties. That approach pairs stabilization skills with careful processing of traumatic memories, and it often emphasizes pacing and grounding techniques suited to remote sessions when needed.
Finding the best method is a collaborative process. Brittany will work with each person to identify goals, try an approach, and adjust plans based on how things go. That helps ensure the work fits the client’s needs and preferences rather than assuming a single method will suit everyone.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Discussing scheduling and practical needs during the matching questionnaire helps match a plan that fits everyday life.
