About Brittany

Brittany Bordonaro is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 15 years of experience delivering direct mental health services. She earned a Master of Social Work (MSW) in 2008 and has built a practice that addresses a wide range of concerns, including self-esteem, stress and anxiety, work-related challenges, military lifestyle issues, family and relationship difficulties - such as infidelity and intimacy concerns - and trauma and family violence.

Brittany has provided services across multiple settings and populations, with extensive experience working with families in the community and within the military system. She currently provides counseling to U.S. service members and their dependents on a daily basis. Her approach centers on trust, openness and respect, and she brings a sensitivity to cultural factors that shape each personâs experience.

Therapeutically, Brittany draws from client-centered principles and cognitive behavioral techniques, with influences from strengths-based and solution-focused work. She aims to empower and motivate clients, helping them recognize existing strengths, identify practical solutions, and learn techniques that can relieve troubling symptoms. Clients describe her as kind, caring, and empathic, and many report feeling comfortable and finding relief relatively quickly when they focus on the concerns most important to them.

Brittany offers supportive, goal-oriented care designed to help people navigate change and work toward a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens closely and helps clients explore their values, goals, and strengths. This approach supports personal growth and is often helpful for people facing relationship, self-esteem, or life transition challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to change them. CBT can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress management, and many day-to-day coping concerns.

The Gottman Method is a structured, research-informed approach for couples that targets communication patterns, conflict management, and emotional connection, making it useful for relationship distress and intimacy issues.

Brittany approaches treatment collaboratively, working with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques and pacing so clients can build on strengths while addressing immediate concerns.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging add flexibility and make it easier to connect with licensed professionals from different settings. These formats allow clients to access care around work, family, or military schedules and to continue therapy even when in-person visits are difficult.
