Brittney Jarett

Brittney Jarett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with five years of experience in mental health. She works with adults and adolescents on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Her stated additional focus includes guilt and shame, life purpose, and post-traumatic stress.

Brittney combines skills from social work and criminal justice administration to support people who are feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She has worked in outpatient settings providing ongoing mental health services to adolescents and adults. Her day-to-day work involves practical coping skills, symptom management, and talking through relationship and grief issues.

Her approach draws on dialectical behavior therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. She uses these methods to help people notice unhelpful patterns, manage strong emotions, and try different ways of responding. Sessions typically involve learning specific skills, practicing new responses, and reviewing how those changes went in daily life.

Brittney aims to offer an authentic and accepting therapeutic relationship where people can speak honestly about difficult experiences. She helps clients clarify what matters to them and to make small, achievable steps toward those goals. Outside of work she enjoys movies, music, travel, concerts, and bowling.

For someone feeling unsure about what comes next, Brittney focuses on concrete tools and steady support so people can test changes and see what fits their life.

How Brittney adapts DBT and CBT for online work

Dialectical behavior therapy teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Online sessions can focus on specific DBT skills such as distress tolerance and emotion regulation, with plans to practice them between meetings.

Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In remote sessions, CBT often uses brief experiments, homework assignments, and step-by-step behavior changes to address anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress symptoms.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Brittney will collaborate with each person to match techniques to their goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing a single method. That means checking in about what helps and adjusting the plan as progress or obstacles appear.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit care around work, school, or caregiving by reducing travel time. They also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or audio-only options when bandwidth or camera use is an issue, helping people keep therapy practical within everyday life.
