About
I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist practicing in Tennessee, California, South Carolina, and Florida.
Marriage/Couples Counseling:
You dread going home after work because it’s just going to be another fight about something. You can’t remember the last time you and your partner were able to just talk with each other.. It seems like you can’t agree on anything anymore and wonder how in the world you got to this point. You feel frustrated or even sick to your stomach that you can’t seem to get along anymore and you’ve begun to wonder if your partner even loves you anymore. You definitely don’t feel heard and you feel less and less like a priority to your partner. It’s almost like they don’t care anymore. But you’re willing to do anything to get the relationship back on track, so that you can enjoy each other’s company like you used to, years ago. You want to learn how to improve the communication in your relationship.
I will observe the interactions between you and your partner, and provide feedback of what I heard and saw, as well as what was unspoken. I will help you learn how to uncover the deeper issues and underlying emotions that have halted your communication, while teaching you new strategies for how to have more open and honest communication with each other.
In very practical ways, I will teach you how to really listen to each other, using strategies such as Reflective Listening and "I" Statements, how to create healthy boundaries in the relationship, how to have difficult conversations & fight fairly, and how to maintain a healthy relationship, using a structured "family meeting". Together we will practice these new skills in session & you'll practice between sessions, until they become almost second nature.
I come alongside you as a partner in the process, instead of someone directing from above. My clients appreciate my humor, casual, relatable approach, and my insight. Check out my website at www.brittaniedmillslmft.com to schedule a free 15 minute consultation.
And For Individual Counseling:
Do you feel unheard, unappreciated, or under-valued? Do you feel like nothing you do is good enough? Do you wish you had the courage to be who you are really meant to be? Chances are that you’ve felt that way so long, you’ve come to believe it yourself. There are patterns in place that you can't seem to break. Imposter Syndrome and feelings of insecurity are real! Now you’re ready to change those beliefs, break those patterns, learn to value yourself, and take control of your own life. You're ready to discover who you were really meant to be. I want to help you be the best version of yourself. You can do this!
You want to discover yourself, find your purpose, & achieve personal fulfillment. You want to be that confident person who doesn't worry about what everyone else thinks. You want to be comfortable being authentically you. And you want your voice to be heard and valued. You want personal growth and to show the world what you have to offer. I can help.
You have taken the courageous first step toward making a positive change in your life. I will walk you through it & be your biggest support. I offer online evening & Friday appointments to fit your busy schedule. Clients who work with me appreciate my humor & my casual approach. Go to www.brittaniedmillslmft.com for more info or email me.
I do this work because I enjoy helping people get out of their own way and become the person they were meant to be.
I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with over 25 years of experience working with children, families, and couples of diverse backgrounds.
My Christian Faith and My Professional Practice
I made the decision to become a Christian when I was 3 years old. I was raised in a strong Christian family and grew up in church. My relationship with Christ has always played an important role in my life, although I'll admit to having ups and downs in my Christian walk throughout the years.
In 8th grade, it became clear to me that my calling was to become a therapist. And from that point on, I set out to achieve that goal. In 2014, I earned my California Marriage & Family Therapist license.
In 2011, during a particularly intense church service, I felt God clearly tell me that He wanted me to serve fellow believers with the issues they struggle with, infusing Christan beliefs into the sessions to support others.
In my practice, I seek to meet people where they are and support them at the level that they are comfortable with.
