      <image:title>About Brittany and Associates - About Brittany</image:title>
      <image:caption>My passion is to journey alongside people as they walk through some of life's most difficult situations. I am committed to helping people find peace and freedom from their past hardships, present conditions, and internal struggles.  My specialities include Trauma, Spiritual Development/Growth work, Personal Development, Mood Regulation (Depression and Anxiety), and Relationship Dynamics. In addition to the intensive training I received while earning my Master's Degree, I have taken several training classes to learn about specific therapies including; EMDR, DBT, and ISF.  For more information on what type of therapy would be a good match for you check out the Services page or Contact Me page.  I have my Master's Degree in Clinical Counseling from Denver Seminary. My Bachelor's Degree is in Sign Language Interpretation from Regis University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC), and an Authorized Educational Interpreter (EIPA). I did my EMDR training through Maiberger Institute and have a certificate of of training allowing me to practice EMDR. My DBT training has consisted of a full-year of group training under a DBT certified therapist, and trainings offered by Dr. Lane Petersen giving me certificates that show my training in DBT. In college, I studied Sign Language as that was a strong interest of mine. After graduating with my BS in ASL Interpretation, I worked for 9 years in the interpreting field. I worked in schools across the Denver area, including; Metro University, Community College of Denver, Red Rocks, Denver University, and University of Colorado.  After 9 years of working as an interpreter I came to realize my true passion; to journey along-side people as they work through internal struggles. I was no longer satisfied with being a bystander in people's lives, I wanted to work with people in a deep and meaningful way. I decided to get my Masters Degree in Counseling so I could serve my community in the way I most desired. I now work full-time as a counselor serving both the deaf and hearing community in the field of psychology.  Other accomplishments include publishing. I have been published for my research focusing on the MBTI and American Missionaries. For more information on this research check out the Announcements page.

We ALL need a little bit of help when things in life become too much to handle on our own. I believe every human is capable of pursuing and accomplishing many things in life with the right tools. By utilizing modalities such as Narrative Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, I help my clients to understand and use emotional regulation, strengthen interpersonal skills and increase positive communication within themselves and with others. I am passionate about working with adults at all stages of life, adolescents girls, and those with medical trauma or chronic illness/pain. It would be an honor to help guide you on this journey. I hold a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health from Colorado Christian University. My bachelors degree from Colorado State University is in Journalism and Technical Communication, with an emphasis on Public Relations. I am an LPCC and NCC candidate.

      <image:title>About Brittany and Associates - About Jarred</image:title>
      <image:caption>Brittany Edwards Counseling is excited to welcome our newest intern, Jarred Ricks. Jarred brings a unique combination of life experience, education, and a genuine commitment to growth—both personally and professionally. His warmth, curiosity, and growth-oriented mindset make him a wonderful addition to our counseling team. We are grateful to have Jarred joining us as he continues his clinical training and begins serving individuals in our community. From Jarred: Life has a way of throwing a lot at us at once; school, work, relationships, and everything in between. Sometimes we just need someone in our corner to help sort through it all. I believe therapy works best when it feels collaborative, not clinical. I’m passionate about sitting with people in the hard and heavy places of life, and working together to figure out a way through. My goal is to help clients build the tools and confidence they need to navigate whatever stage of life they’re in, whether that’s the pressures of adolescence, the challenges that come with ADHD, or working through anxiety and depression. I am passionate about working with adolescent boys and young adult men, helping them build healthy coping skills and a stronger sense of self, as well as supporting adults with ADHD and those working through depression and anxiety. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from the University of Massachusetts Global and am currently completing my Master’s degree in Social Work at the University of Kentucky (Go Wildcats!). Before pursuing this path, I spent five years as a youth pastor, walking alongside young people through some of the biggest transitions of their lives, and this was an experience that shaped how I show up for clients today. Outside of the office, I’m usually being chased around the living room by my four-year-old son during an intense game of Ninja Turtles, and my wife and I are counting down the days until our daughter arrives. I love snowboarding, and you’ll find me writing and creating music every chance I get. More than anything, I value time with my family, as it’s what keeps me grounded and reminds me why this work matters.
