About Brytrina

Brytrina Perkins is an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - based in Illinois who brings a decade of clinical experience to her practice. She completed both a Bachelor of Social Work and a Master of Social Work at Loyola University, specializing in mental health and alcohol and drug services, and she is also a certified alcohol and drug counselor. Over ten years she has worked extensively with addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes, as well as related areas such as caregiver stress, cancer care, and gerontology.

Her approach blends solution-focused thinking with evidence-informed techniques and trainings in areas like Emotional Freedom Therapy, caregiver support, cancer care, and holistic health. She is known for listening closely, offering empathy, and emphasizing clients' strengths as the basis for practical, sustainable change. Brytrina uses a range of clinical methods - including client-centered work, cognitive strategies, emotionally focused techniques, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing - to tailor care to each person's needs.

Committed to helping people move forward, she looks to share tools and strategies that support recovery, manage difficult emotions, and rebuild relationships, all while centering each person's goals and lived experience.

Approaches That Guide Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting atmosphere where a person feels heard and respected. This approach helps people explore values, build self-esteem, and make choices that align with their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, addiction, and anger management by teaching practical coping skills and problem-solving strategies. Emotionally-Focused Therapy targets emotional patterns in relationships and can be especially helpful for couples and individuals working through attachment issues, grief, or interpersonal conflict.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Brytrina collaborates with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors methods to fit those priorities. That collaborative process helps determine whether a strengths-based, behavioral, emotional, or mindfulness-oriented path will be most useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. Working with licensed professionals in these formats makes it possible to receive consistent care from afar, maintain momentum between sessions, and access support that fits into daily life.
