About Britt
Britt Olean is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Minnesota with 11 years of experience. She works with adults coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD-related concentration and focus concerns, and life changes. She also supports people navigating grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and questions about life purpose.
Britt frames clients as the experts on their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are conversational and practical. She helps people name what feels stuck, try new ways of thinking or organizing tasks, and practice small changes that fit daily life.
Her background includes extensive clinical work across common mental health concerns. That experience informs how she structures sessions and sets goals with each person. Britt pays attention to cognitive and behavioral patterns that affect mood and focus, and she uses straightforward strategies to address them.
Expect collaborative planning in early sessions. Britt will listen to problems, highlight strengths, and help set short-term steps to test what works. She offers support for parenting questions, caregiver stress, relationship and blended family issues, and challenges tied to attachment or autism spectrum differences.
People who contact her typically want clearer routines, better focus, or relief from anxiety and low mood. She asks practical questions and works with clients to try manageable changes. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Two common evidence-based techniques she draws on are behavioral strategies and cognitive approaches. Behavioral strategies focus on changing routines and habits - for example building small daily tasks to improve focus, sleep, or activity levels. These methods can help with low energy, ADHD-related struggles, and seasonal mood shifts.Cognitive approaches look at unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of interpreting situations. This can reduce anxiety, challenge self-critical thoughts, and make decisions feel more manageable when life roles shift.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Britt will ask about your goals, daily life, and what has or has not helped before. Together you will decide which techniques to try and adjust them based on what fits your needs and preferences.
Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work or caregiving days, or useful for shorter check-ins when bandwidth is limited. Others prefer a longer appointment to work through parenting or grief concerns. Discuss practical scheduling and format preferences during the matching and intake steps so sessions align with your routine and goals.
