Brittany Jenkins, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Brittany!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California and Maryland. I earned my BA in Psychology from Towson University and have dual master’s degrees in Counseling Psychology and Forensic Psychology. I bring a diverse educational background to my practice.

My focus

I work with people of all ages facing serious challenges, including schizophrenia, anxiety, major depression, and bipolar disorder. I have experience in crisis intervention and residential treatment for teens. I'm here to help with whatever you're going through.

My approach

I use a mix of therapy styles, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. My goal is to find the right approach for each client, making sure you feel safe and supported every step of the way.

My communication style

I believe in open and collaborative communication. I strive to create a safe space where you feel comfortable expressing your thoughts and feelings. Active listening and empathy are central to my interactions, fostering a trusting therapeutic relationship.

My journey to mental healthcare

Becoming a therapist began with a passion for understanding human behavior and a desire to help others. I founded a wellness clubhouse to support underserved youth, which has been a fulfilling part of my career.

My goals for you

I help you identify your goals and develop actionable steps to achieve them. I empower you to navigate challenges and foster personal growth by utilizing evidence-based techniques and a strength-based perspective.

Our first session

In our first session, I'll make sure you feel at ease. We'll discuss what brings you here, your goals, and what you hope to get from our time together. It's all about setting the stage for our therapeutic journey together.
