About Brittany

Brittany Lauer is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) practicing in Ohio who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, family and parenting challenges, anger, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She returns to clinical social work after years caring for her young children, bringing lived experience in parenting alongside clinical skills honed through work in school and adoption settings. Her background includes grief and pregnancy counseling at an adoption agency as well as school-based mental health work supporting parents, students, and staff.

She draws on a strengths-based, client-centered stance and uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when appropriate to address anxiety, adjustment concerns, behavioral issues, mood disorders, and attention-related challenges. Colleagues and clients can expect an empathetic, advocacy-minded clinician who values understanding each person’s story and goals.

Brittany emphasizes practical strategies parents and individuals can use at home and in daily life while collaborating on goals and interventions tailored to each person’s needs. Interested clients are invited to connect to explore whether her style and experience are a good match for their concerns and objectives.

Approaches and Online Options for Practical, Collaborative Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist listens closely and supports each person's own goals and choices. This approach helps people feel heard and empowered to explore values, strengths, and next steps in coping with life changes or relational concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the relationships among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete skills for managing anxiety, panic symptoms, mood instability, and attention-related challenges. CBT tends to emphasize measurable strategies like thought records, behavioral experiments, and coping plans that can be practiced between sessions.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is collaborative; the therapist will work with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences and may blend elements of client-centered work and CBT as appropriate. Clients can expect ongoing discussion about progress and adjustments to the plan.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These options make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules and to continue work on skills and support from a distance while coordinating times that suit individual routines.
