About

With a warm and collaborative approach, Britta Homelvig, LMSW, brings 14 years of experience to her therapy practice, specializing in helping individuals enhance their lives. Her unique perspective recognizes clients as the true experts of their own experiences, viewing them as products of their environments shaped by diverse backgrounds and often impacted by systems of oppression.

Britta's therapeutic methodology is deeply rooted in cultural humility and ongoing antiracist education. She employs a strengths-based, person-centered approach that is both validating and dynamic. Understanding the complexity of healing, Britta tailors her treatment to each individual, allowing for fluidity as layers of understanding unfold and goals evolve.

In her sessions, Britta utilizes various techniques to facilitate meaningful change. She employs externalization and cognitive restructuring to help clients explore the influence of their experiences and develop new relationships with these events. Additionally, she focuses on identifying and capitalizing on the unique ways individuals have adapted to traumatic experiences, using these insights to regulate their nervous systems.

Britta's professional background includes extensive work in the nonprofit sector, primarily with adults from diverse backgrounds. This experience has honed her ability to connect early life and impactful experiences to unconscious behaviors, providing a comprehensive framework for personal growth and healing.

As a lifelong learner, Britta continually expands her knowledge not just through formal education and research, but through the invaluable lessons learned from supporting clients on their personal journeys. Her practice embodies the philosophy expressed in Thomas Merton's words: "Compassion is the keen awareness of the interdependence of all things." This understanding of interconnectedness informs her holistic approach to therapy, recognizing the complex web of factors that influence an individual's well-being.
