As an artist and art therapist, I believe that creativity comes in many forms. It is my goal to help every individual create a peaceful home environment be it through art or therapy. Being a visual artist means being able to make simple shapes and lines and help them evolve into another form. Art therapy uses lines, shapes and colors to help one heal. How an individual choses to manipulate those various tools determines the final outcome.

Therapist

I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who believes healing happens when people feel seen, safe, and supported without judgment. My work is rooted in authenticity, compassion, accountability, and cultural awareness. As a Black woman, mother, caregiver, and mental health professional, I understand firsthand how life’s responsibilities, transitions, grief, trauma, relationships, and everyday stress can impact emotional wellness.

I strive to create a space where clients do not have to “hold it all together.” Whether you are navigating anxiety, burnout, depression, life transitions, motherhood, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, or generational patterns, my goal is to help you reconnect with yourself while building practical tools for lasting growth.

Clients often describe me as warm, relatable, direct when needed, and easy to talk to. I value creating a therapeutic relationship that feels collaborative, empowering, and real.

Hi, I’m Brittany — a licensed therapist, maternal wellness advocate, and founder of B.Intentional Wellness and The Center for Intentional Maternal Wellness.

I bring both expertise and heart to my work, and I’m committed to helping clients reclaim their peace, power, and purpose. Outside the therapy room, I’m a mom, a lover of cozy evenings, intentional self-care, long walks, and good music. I believe healing can be warm, real, and even a little fun.
