About Brittney

Brittney Mendoza is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family concerns, depression, addictions, grief, and challenges around intimacy, eating, and sleep. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, self-esteem problems, attachment issues, and family of origin issues.

She approaches sessions in a direct, conversational way. She listens to a person’s story and points out strengths she notices. She asks questions designed to help people notice patterns and rethink self-defeating beliefs. Conversations often include practical steps to manage emotions and try new behaviors between sessions.

Her work draws on several evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods. These give a mix of skills practice, thinking-work, and attention to close relationships and personal values.

People can expect clear, focused sessions that balance talking with skills and reflection. Brittney pays attention to how past family roles and rules still shape current relationships and personal choices. She helps clients consider how to change old patterns while keeping important relationships intact.

Sessions are aimed at helping adults make practical changes that fit their lives. The therapist encourages people to notice small shifts in thinking and behavior, try new ways of interacting, and build on what already works.

Approaches used in remote sessions and how they fit daily life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and decisions tied to family roles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication. It can help people understand repeating relationship roles and work on closer, more balanced interactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns into small, changeable steps and includes practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and together with the client will pick methods that match the person’s goals, preferences, and current life demands. That collaborative planning helps shape session focus and homework tasks.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in on a break from work. It can also let someone try skills practice in the context of everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, attachment-focused work, or CBT exercises to remote sessions so they stay practical and action-oriented.
