Brittany Gustafson, LMSW
Owner & Therapist
“I believe every person is capable of growth and change.”
I strive to create a space that no matter how you feel, you know that you belong here. Finding a therapist can be such an intimate process, but my goal is to help you discover your strengths and reconnect with the person that you are. I am passionate about working with people who struggle to get through their day to day for a myriad of reasons including their relationships with others, overall stress, and feelings of anxiety or depression. I also find joy in working with people who are experiencing unique challenges and trying to understand the root cause of their core beliefs.

Although I pull from a variety of techniques, I am trained in Brainspotting and truly believe that healing is not only in our mind, but in our body as well. Brainspotting has been shown to help reprocess negative events within our lives in order to finally heal. I am also trained in Reiki and have a great interest in energy work as a whole. I take a more somatic approach to therapy in order to help you understand the mind/body connection better.

I received my Bachelors Degree from Northern Michigan University (Go Wildcats!) , and my Master’s Degree from the University of Michigan.
I am also trained in Reiki, Brainspotting, and will be a Registered yoga instructor in Spring of 2024.
I have experience working in Hospice and helping those with end of life care and preparations.
However, my greatest passion has always been working with people who are in crisis, or who have a history of crisis situations.
My goal here is to help you better understand yourself, reconnect your body and mind, and to feel whole once again.

I am not only an ally, but I am also able to provide letters of support. Currently, I am only able to see adults.
