About Brandy

Brandy Jastrow is a licensed social worker practicing in Wisconsin with eight years of clinical experience. She holds both LMSW and LCSW credentials and draws on that background to support people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and issues with motivation and self-esteem.

Background and approach

Brandy emphasizes an individualized approach, shaping conversation and treatment plans to reflect each person’s situation and goals. Her work also covers a broad range of related concerns including addictions, relationship and intimacy challenges, grief, sleeping and eating problems, career struggles, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Brandy aims to form a strong therapeutic alliance through respect, sensitivity, and compassion, helping clients take steps toward a more fulfilling life. She approaches care collaboratively, focusing on practical strategies and emotional understanding tailored to what matters most to the individual.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that adapt to your needs

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and creating a supportive, nonjudgmental dialogue so clients can explore goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior, using practical exercises to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood and to build coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for regulating emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is often part of therapy itself. She works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts plans over time based on what proves most helpful.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit therapeutic work into everyday life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person options are limited, while allowing licensed professionals to deliver structured, evidence-informed interventions remotely.
