About Brittney
Brittney McCoy is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL LMHC) with 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, and issues tied to family and parenting roles. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Brittney favors clear, behavior-focused work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing to identify unhelpful thoughts and small patterns that keep problems going. Conversations aim to surface practical changes people can try between sessions.
Her background includes work with blended families, caregiver stress, attachment and abandonment concerns, and family-of-origin problems. She also brings experience with trauma, grief, addiction, and coping after disasters. That range means she often helps people with overlapping problems rather than a single issue.
In a typical session Brittney will listen for patterns in thinking and behavior, suggest targeted techniques, and check how those ideas fit the person’s daily life. She uses short experiments and step-by-step plans so changes are easier to test and adjust.
People can expect direct practical work on communication problems, impulsivity, guilt and shame, or struggles with isolation and emptiness. She also addresses sleep, anger, bipolar mood concerns, and fatherhood issues where relevant. The aim is readable, actionable steps rather than long theory talks.
How Brittney uses CBT and motivational techniques online
Brittney uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and habits that keep problems going. CBT sessions focus on small, concrete experiments and steps to change thinking, behavior, and daily routines. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing impulsivity.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people who feel stuck or ambivalent about change. That method involves asking focused questions, reflecting back what the person says, and building motivation one step at a time. It can be useful for addictions, lifestyle changes, and when someone is unsure how to move forward.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist and client will review goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what works. Brittney will check progress and shift focus if a different method seems more helpful.
