About Randye
Randye Brittain is a Maryland-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW-C) with 20 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and life changes related to career, parenting, grief, trauma and intimacy. She also addresses issues tied to adoption, blended family dynamics, aging, immigration, and feelings of emptiness or loneliness.
Her approach mixes client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and psychodynamic ideas. She also uses solution-focused strategies in shorter-term work. Sessions include practical conversations, skill building, and reflection so people can handle day-to-day problems more effectively.
In practice she listens without labeling and adapts discussions to the person in front of her. This can mean working on coping strategies for anxiety, unpacking family patterns, improving sleep and self-esteem, or addressing compassion fatigue. She may introduce relaxation skills and brief exercises when they fit the goals.
Randye has supported people through trauma, abuse, adoption challenges, custody and blended family concerns. She helps with career questions and with finding meaning after major life transitions. Her work is direct and geared toward making everyday life more manageable.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy places emphasis on listening and understanding the person's concerns. Online sessions using this approach focus on open conversation, reflective questions, and supporting whatever issues the person brings up, such as relationships, life purpose or parenting challenges.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns. In online sessions CBT can involve short exercises, behavioral experiments, and homework to try between meetings for anxiety, sleep problems or low mood.
Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices. Online work with this approach uses discussion to notice those patterns and consider how past experiences affect present decisions and feelings.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit the situation. That recommendation can change as therapy progresses and new priorities emerge.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit around daily life, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and allow practical skill practice between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt pacing and techniques to remote sessions so people can address stress, career questions, family patterns or life purpose concerns without rearranging their whole day.
