I'm so glad you're here!
My name is Brittany Walters Hard and I'm a licensed professional counselor with advanced certification in substance abuse and addictive disorders. My expertise centers on treating addictive behaviors, focusing notably on relationship addiction and codependency.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I have a deep understanding of trauma's complex effects on mental health, emotions, and behavior. I have dedicated my career to support fellow West Virginians and recognize their value, especially during difficult times. I aim to extend that same encouragement and sense of hope to you! While a diagnosis may be important, I prioritize the person in front of me. You are more than a diagnosis, and your treatment will be tailored to your unique needs and individuality.
It's my passion to help folks find their voices and self-worth. Through evidence-based techniques and personalized strategies, I empower my clients to set healthy boundaries, enhance self-awareness, and develop the confidence to prioritize their own well-being. This often involves assisting them in taking a step back to reflect about their life experiences and process how these experiences might be related to the challenges they're currently facing. Together, we uncover patterns, beliefs, and behaviors that may be holding you back from living authentically and fulfilling your own needs.
Therapy may look different for each person depending on the concerns we are actively addressing in session. I'll help you apply our work to real-life situations and stressors. I welcome discussions that clarify therapy for you! Do you relate to a celebrity or TV character but struggle to express your own issues? Let's explore that. Did a TikTok resonate with you? Let's navigate it together; everything you share is vital to your journey.
Whether you're navigating difficult relationships, dealing with work-related stress, or simply seeking to improve your self-esteem and self-care practices, I'm here to help!
It's hard being human, but having a therapist you connect with can make it easier. Take the first step towards a more balanced and fulfilling life by scheduling a session with me today. I'm ready when you are!
