About Brittney
LICSW, LCSW social worker licensed in Alabama with 14 years of experience. Brittney Fortson helps people navigate family conflict, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stresses, and issues with self-esteem. She combines straightforward conversation with practical tools to address immediate problems and ongoing patterns.
Fortson focuses on what a person is facing now and how small changes can make life more manageable. Sessions tend to include goal-focused discussion, problem-solving, and skill practice. She uses several therapeutic approaches to guide work, choosing methods that fit each person's situation.
Her style is direct and conversational. She listens to what matters most and then suggests steps people can try between sessions. That can include exercises to change unhelpful thinking, experiments to test new behaviors, or values-based actions to rebuild connection.
Clients often bring blended family issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, or stress from caregiving. She also supports people dealing with dependence, commitment struggles, divorce and separation, substance concerns, and wounds from family of origin.
Fortson draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape sessions. Work is collaborative: goals are set together and progress is reviewed. Practical strategies are emphasized so people can apply them in everyday life.
Sessions are conducted in English and operate through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session to begin the process.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action. It helps when people feel stuck or overwhelmed by difficult thoughts and want to reconnect with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by teaching practical skills to test and change them. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and problem-focused goals.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. Early sessions review needs and try techniques to see what fits best.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Therapists can assign brief exercises to use between sessions and review how those worked during meetings, helping apply strategies directly to everyday life.
