Brittany Bordonaro, LICSW

Brittany Bordonaro is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with fifteen years of experience helping people navigate relationship strain, addiction concerns, anxiety, and grief. She works in plain language and focuses on practical steps that people can use right away. Brittany aims to create a respectful, open space where clients feel heard and understood.

She uses a client-centered approach that starts with listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. Brittany combines that with cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice patterns of thought and action. She also draws on motivational interviewing to support change and the Gottman Method when relationship repair is a clear goal.

Her background includes long-term work with military populations and community settings, providing counseling for service members and their families. That experience informs how she thinks about stress, deployment-related strain, veteran issues, and the practical demands of military life.

Brittany emphasizes strengths and solution-focused strategies. She helps people identify existing resources, try small changes, and track what helps. When symptoms are intense, she offers concrete tools for symptom relief alongside longer-term work on underlying issues.

People who come to her for help with addiction, trauma, or family and relationship problems find a steady, motivational presence. To begin, clients are guided through a brief matching process and then schedule sessions based on availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Brittany frequently uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, pacing, and supporting each person's priorities. This approach helps people feel understood and sets the agenda around what matters most to them.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. CBT offers practical exercises and small experiments that people can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage cravings, or improve sleep.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Brittany works with clients to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and current needs. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress or challenges emerge.

Confirm current online session options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can fit more easily into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Online sessions also make it simpler to continue care during life transitions or while juggling work and family responsibilities.
