TRAUMA THERAPIST, RALEIGH NC

Hello, and welcome! I’m Brittany Coker, LMFTA (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate). My therapeutic approach is informed by my experiences working in both inpatient and outpatient settings, as well as my participation in research labs studying anxiety and childhood development. 

Specialties:

  • Anxiety/Depression

  • PTSD/C-PTSD

  • OCD

  • Chronic Illness/Autoimmune Conditions

  • Marital Counseling, Separation, and Divorce

  • LGBTQ+ Affirming

  • Polyamory/ENM Relationships

I care deeply about empowering my clients to live healthier, happier lives. I have worked with children, teens, adults, individuals, couples, and families throughout my career. I specialize in helping my clients increase their self-esteem, work through identity issues, conquer anxiety, improve communication, set healthy boundaries, and explore their attachment styles

In my work, I have used a wide range of therapy modalities, including Person-Centered, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, Gottman Counseling Techniques for Couples Therapy, Narrative Therapy, MBCT (Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Somatic Therapy, and Trauma-Informed care. 

When I’m not in the office, I enjoy exploring nature trails, painting, and ranking the local boba tea shops! 

COUNSELING APPROACH

I approach therapy collaboratively, meaning I genuinely work with you rather than directing you. I know that every client's needs and challenges are unique. Therefore, I take a flexible approach to treatment so that I can provide a model of therapy that you feel is a perfect fit for you. It is important to me to provide a warm setting where you will feel truly seen and heard. To do this, I focus on providing a safe, judgment-free environment where you can be your most authentic self. Together, we will work to explore your needs, discover your strengths, and determine a plan of action for achieving your goals.

I look forward to meeting you!
