About Brittney

Brittney McCoy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and trauma and abuse. She speaks English and Spanish and brings ten years of clinical experience to sessions. Her approach is direct and practical, aimed at helping people make real changes they can use day to day.

Clients can expect a conversational style that blends problem-solving with goal setting. Brittney uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try small changes, and build new habits that stick. She also draws on experience with faith-informed counseling and cross-cultural work when it fits a person’s needs.

She often helps with concerns such as ADHD, addictions, grief, sleep problems, anger, bipolar mood issues, and major life changes. Brittney also addresses family-related stress like blended family dynamics, caregiver strain, fatherhood issues, and family of origin wounds. She works with problems linked to abandonment, attachment, isolation, and feelings of emptiness.

Sessions focus on clear steps and practical skills. Conversations might include identifying unhelpful thinking, setting realistic goals, and using motivational techniques to move toward change. Brittney prioritizes collaboration so people leave with an action plan they can try between sessions.

People interested in starting are asked to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. The goal is to make therapy useful and manageable while supporting progress over time.

How Brittney's approaches work in online therapy

CBT helps people notice unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and support better sleep and daily routines. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person's own reasons for change and helps resolve mixed feelings about steps like reducing substance use or starting new habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Brittney will discuss goals and preferences and try techniques that fit each person's situation. The process is collaborative and adjusts as progress is made so methods match what actually helps.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins between in-person commitments. Some people find phone or video sessions help maintain continuity during workdays or family routines, while others prefer a format that allows shorter, focused check-ins. Talk with Brittney about which session style would best match schedule and needs.
