About Brittany

Brittany Buckelew is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of clinical experience based in South Carolina. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, depression, issues related to LGBT identity, trauma and abuse, career concerns, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. The profile also notes work around compassion fatigue and family-related problems.

Brittany uses a blend of approaches in her work. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and values that matter to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her practice for helping people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain distress. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) ideas when relationship emotions are central to the problem.

In sessions she aims for a collaborative tone. People talk through what matters and set small, practical steps between meetings. She pays attention to how past attachments and family of origin issues shape present reactions, including abandonment, codependency, and communication problems.

Brittany also addresses concerns such as body image, commitment and control issues, dissociation, divorce and separation, emptiness, forgiveness, and coping with disasters. Her work includes grief and loss and supporting people with bipolar disorder within therapy. She honors each person's experience and focuses on clear, real-world strategies rather than abstract labels.

How her approaches translate to online work

Brittany uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with what matters to them. ACT often includes simple exercises and values-based actions that translate well to remote conversations and between-session practice.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thinking and behavior patterns that keep anxiety or shame active. CBT in an online format typically involves short skill-building tasks, worksheets, and reviewing what worked between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) ideas guide work on strong relationship emotions, naming feelings and improving how people respond to each other during conflict.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Brittany will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. She checks in regularly to adjust the plan so sessions match what feels most useful.

The original biography does not list specific session delivery methods, so confirm available formats before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and let people use approaches like CBT worksheets or ACT exercises between meetings.
