About Brittney
Brittney Mendoza is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, and issues with substance use. She also supports concerns around parenting, intimacy, grief, eating and sleeping struggles, and self-esteem.
Background and approach
Brittney writes plainly and listens without judgment to understand what matters most to each person. She creates a calm, respectful space where clients can be vulnerable and talk about hard things.
Brittney points out strengths she sees, asks questions that prompt new thinking, and gently challenges beliefs that get in the way of progress. Her style balances warmth with practical feedback so sessions feel direct but kind.
Brittney draws on several approaches to fit the problem at hand. She uses the Gottman Method for relationship patterns, acceptance and commitment therapy to help people live by their values, and attachment-based ideas to clarify connection needs.
Cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered listening round out her toolbox. Over eight years as an LMFT she has supported individuals and couples through separation, blended family challenges, parenting stress, and recovery from addiction.
Her work also addresses family of origin issues, body image and caregiver strain. Brittney tailors strategies to each person's situation rather than offering one-size-fits-all answers.
People who work with Brittney can expect clear goals and practical steps between sessions. She encourages small experiments and new habits that fit real life.
The emphasis is on steady progress and building healthier patterns in relationships and daily routines.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Brittney often uses the Gottman Method to look at interaction patterns between partners and teach practical communication skills that reduce conflict and build connection. This work focuses on small, teachable moments and exercises that couples can practice between sessions.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions because it focuses on meaningful behavior rather than trying to eliminate feelings.
Brittney will collaborate with each person to find the approaches that fit their goals and pace. She will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process rather than a single up-front decision.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier and to match different needs. Video calls work well for skill practice and reading nonverbal cues; phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in when bandwidth or time is limited. Chat and messaging allow ongoing contact and brief check-ins between longer sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
