With decades of experience, I am well-versed in many different modalities. No one approach works for everyone, so I built a large tool kit to have a broad range of tools available. Areas of expertise include individual, couples and family counseling, trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, special needs of gifted and talented, medical social work, impact of illness, traumatic brain injury, grief and bereavement, positive aging, geriatrics and end of life issues. Having been raised in a military family I enjoy working with our veterans, active duty personnel and their families.

Brittany Meredith

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Lubbock, TX


I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. My professional experience has allowed me to work with children, teens, and young adults facing a variety of challenges, and these experiences have shaped my compassionate, client-centered approach. Supporting children and their families is a special passion of mine, and I enjoy helping young people build confidence, develop healthy coping skills, and navigate life's challenges.

I have experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, life transitions, chronic medical conditions, and substance use. I have also completed specialized training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and incorporate these skills when appropriate. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and earned my master's degree from the University of Texas at Arlington. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel empowered to grow, heal, and create meaningful change.

Therapist

I’m a bilingual therapist working with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, and major life transitions. Many of the people I support feel overwhelmed by overthinking, internal pressure, difficulty managing stress, and the uncertainty of what comes next.

In our work together, I focus on helping you make sense of what’s happening internally and develop practical ways to respond to stress and emotions. I integrate cognitive, somatic, and neuroscience-informed approaches to support both emotional and nervous system regulation.

I believe therapy should feel human. It can be structured but still fit your individual needs. I offer a space where you can show up as you are, while also doing meaningful work that leads to real shifts in how you experience and respond to life.

Therapist

Virtual • China Spring, TX


"I believe that therapy should be as unique as the person sitting across from me. With nine years of clinical experience, I’ve learned that a 'one-size-fits-all' approach rarely works. That’s why I integrate evidence-based tools like CBT, EMDR, and REBT with a holistic, solution-focused framework to create a proactive plan tailored specifically to you.

My career has been defined by serving those in their most vulnerable moments—from life transitions and developmental stages to veterans and families navigating the complexities of service to individuals fighting addiction and codependency. Whether we are utilizing 12-Step principles or processing trauma through EMDR, my goal is to provide a constructive, non-judgmental space where you can find a concrete path forward. I hold an MS in Counseling Mental Health and am dually licensed as a Professional Counselor (LPC) and Addiction Counselor (LCDC) to ensure you receive the most comprehensive support possible."
