Getting to know Brittany Scott
I am a highly motivated and progress-focused Mental Health Counselor - Limited Permit. I hold a B.A. in Psychology and a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Pace University. I possess over four years of experience in the counseling profession as a mental health provider in various diverse settings. I am experienced in working with teens and adults with substance abuse/use disorders and co-occurring severe and persistent mental health illnesses. I also have experience working with families and couples to address the communication (verbal and nonverbal) styles of the family or couple, as well as any individual concerns that may interfere with the cohesiveness of the family system. Furthermore, I have experience providing guidance to individuals in the LGBTQ+ community who lack familial support.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I believe it is important to build a solid rapport with clients to ensure a stable therapeutic relationship while using a variety of helpful approaches tailored to the needs of each client. I typically utilize a combination of theories to help clients achieve their identified goals. These theories include Motivational Interviewing (MI); Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT); Person- Centered Therapy; Adlerian Therapy techniques; Gestalt Therapy techniques; Family and Marriage Therapy. My hope is to work collaboratively with clients to build the tools/skills necessary to promote long-term mental health stability.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
In the first session I will complete an intake assessment to gather as much information to better assess and get to know you, your history, and what concerns have brought you to therapy and therefore set up goals. The following sessions, we will engage in talk therapy while pulling from various modalities to help you achieve your goals. Our sessions are 45 min in length on a weekly basis.
Please allow 15 minutes before the session to do the intake paperwork.
I PROVIDE PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICES ONLY; PLEASE NOTE I DON’T PROVIDE MEDICATION MANAGEMENT SERVICES.
