About Britt
Britt Olean is a licensed independent clinical social worker with 11 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or low mood. Parents seeking support around parenting challenges or life transitions will find practical guidance and straightforward conversation.
Britt uses clear, down-to-earth language to help clients name what's hard and notice small changes. She pays attention to thinking patterns, motivation, concentration, and everyday habits that affect mood and focus.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build on the client’s strengths and practical routines rather than rely on jargon. Clients can expect gentle encouragement to try steps that feel doable. Britt helps people break big problems into smaller tasks and develop ways to cope during stressful moments.
She also supports those facing grief, burnout, or compassion fatigue and helps people reconnect with priorities and meaning. Britt has worked with concerns related to attachment, blended family issues, caregiver stress, autism and Asperger syndrome, and challenges like body image, social anxiety, and isolation. She brings an adaptable approach that responds to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Britt practices in Minnesota and holds the LICSW credential, which stands for Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. She speaks English and draws on eleven years of experience to guide people toward clearer thinking and steadier daily routines.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Many clients benefit from approaches that focus on thinking patterns and daily habits. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with clearer, more balanced thinking to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another useful method focuses on building routines, improving concentration, and small behavioral steps to boost motivation and focus for people with ADHD-related challenges. These approaches are practical and aimed at day-to-day coping rather than abstract theory.Choosing the right way to work together is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s life, adjusting the plan as needed based on progress and comfort.
Online therapy offers flexible options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to meet people where they are. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging lets clients share updates between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between appointments.
