Meet Brittany Brookshire

Welcome to Only Human Counseling!

I am Brittany Brookshire, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor working remotely with clients in Illinois and Arkansas. I graduated in 2017 with a master’s degree in counseling from the University of Georgia, and I have worked as a school counselor and in private practice.

Many of my clients are between ages 18-50, and I often work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, and adult ADHD. I love being a part of peoples’ journeys through life, and I feel passionately about helping those going through (or healing from) life transitions, religious trauma, abusive relationships, uncertainty in life, grief, stress within marriages, or those just working to love or learn about themselves.

I value the opportunity to help people “lift the fog” after a difficult life experience, new diagnosis, or while struggling with mental health. I understand the deep roots that take hold in our inner-narratives and how it impacts our day-to-day lives, and my strengths lie in helping people navigate their way out of life’s difficult mazes.

I am currently accepting clients ages 18 and up, and I would love to meet you and see if we would be a good fit. Not sure what you are looking for in a counselor? Have questions about me, my practice, or how to find the right counselor for you? I would love to hear from you!

What Can Counseling Do For You?

Healing

Whatever is standing in the way of your mental or emotional health, counseling can help you process, accept, and make positive change

Self Confidence

Learn to love and trust in yourself, to view yourself in a positive light, to speak to yourself with kindness

Perspective

It is hard to see clearly when you are overwhelmed. Counseling can help shift your perspective to be able to see things with more clarity

Process

Talk through the things taking up space in your mind, learn what you need to move forward

Get to Know Yourself

Does who you are match up with who you want to be? Learn about yourself and the things that impact your emotions, behaviors, relationships, and your personal needs. Identify past experiences, or current situations, that are impacting your ability to cope or move forward

Resilience & Coping

Humans are naturally resilient, but sometimes we need help identifying our strengths and remembering how to persist

Keep in mind….

Just like any relationship, a relationship with yourself takes work! Counseling can be hard work, and it is not linear. You may experience highs and lows on this path to healing, but you will not be alone.
