Getting to know Brittany Flournoy
Hi, I'm Brittany Flournoy, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-S) and certified Perinatal Mental Health specialist (PMH-C) with over 11 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I specialize in women's mental health, pregnancy and postpartum mental health, and supporting individuals through emotionally challenging periods of their lives.
I have extensive experience treating postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, pregnancy-related stress, infertility concerns, maternal mental health challenges, and the emotional adjustments associated with motherhood and parenting. I also work with adults experiencing mood disorders, bipolar disorder, low self-esteem, identity concerns, family conflict, relationship difficulties, chronic illness, and significant life changes.
My approach to therapy is culturally sensitive, and strengths-based. I use evidence-based treatment approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. I tailor treatment to your individual needs, helping you develop healthy coping skills, manage difficult emotions, improve relationships, and build resilience.
My professional background includes working in hospital settings, maternal behavioral health programs, and private practice. I have particular expertise in supporting women and families experiencing pregnancy complications, pregnancy loss, grief, health-related anxiety, and the emotional impact of medical challenges. I am passionate about providing culturally responsive mental health care and creating a welcoming environment where individuals from diverse backgrounds feel understood and supported.
I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Houston and am pursuing a PhD at Howard University.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I believe that seeking therapy is an important step toward prioritizing your emotional well-being. My style is warm, approachable, collaborative, and empowering. I create a supportive, judgment-free environment where you can explore your concerns openly and feel genuinely heard. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, postpartum challenges, or major life changes, we'll work together to understand your experiences, identify your strengths, and develop practical strategies to help you feel more confident, balanced, and in control of your life.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our first session focuses on getting to know you, understanding your concerns, and discussing what you hope to achieve through therapy. We'll explore your personal history, current challenges, relationships, and emotional well-being to develop an individualized treatment plan. Depending on your needs, I incorporate evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, interpersonal therapy, and solution-focused techniques. Throughout our work together, we'll regularly assess your progress, strengthen coping skills, and adjust our approach to support meaningful, lasting change.
