Brittany Phillips Hunt

I specialize in trauma-informed therapy for military personnel, veterans, first responders, and LGBTQIA+ clients. I work with adults and couples navigating trauma, mood disorders, substance use, and life transitions. I'm passionate about reducing mental health stigma and creating a safe space where you can explore, grow, and be challenged. My approach I believe therapy should feel collaborative, where you feel supported and empowered. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, prioritizing emotional safety and respect. I draw from CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Prolonged Exposure to help you understand your thoughts and emotions while learning practical tools for change. My focus I work with adults and couples facing trauma, mood disorders, substance use, identity exploration, and life transitions. Many of my clients are military personnel, veterans, first responders, or their loved ones who carry heavy responsibilities and often push through emotional pain. I also work with LGBTQIA+ clients seeking affirming care. My communication style My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I create a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard. I practice active listening and engage thoughtfully, asking meaningful questions and offering insights or gentle challenges when helpful. Clients appreciate my ability to balance empathy with a grounded, no-pressure approach. My journey to mental healthcare As a former EMT and spouse to a Marine Corps Veteran, I understand how hard it can be to reach out for support. I'm dedicated to working alongside my clients on their journey to a better life, offering a safe space where you don't have to carry it all alone. My goals for you From the beginning, we'll work together to identify what matters most to you—whether that's healing from trauma, improving communication, managing anxiety or depression, or gaining a stronger sense of identity. Your goals guide our work, and I'll support you in breaking them down into manageable, meaningful steps. My first session with you In our first session, we'll take time to get to know each other and explore what brings you to therapy. I'll ask about your concerns, strengths, and what you hope to achieve. Together, we'll begin creating a treatment plan that honors your needs and feels both empowering and achievable.
