About Brittany Updegrove, MS, LAC

I Knew I Had a Passion for Working in Mental Health, But I Didn’t Know Where That Journey Would Lead Me.

After growing up in Arkansas, I moved to San Diego to begin my career in mental health, where I spent seven years gaining experience in various therapeutic settings.

I returned to Arkansas to continue my work, helping individuals navigate severe mental illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and borderline personality disorder, as well as addiction and emotional struggles like depression and anxiety.

My journey has shown me how resilient people can be, and I’m here to help you discover that strength within yourself.

I’m Here to Help You Tackle Life’s Toughest Challenges

I specialize in helping people manage mental health challenges, addiction recovery, and emotional difficulties. Whether it’s improving relationships, overcoming obstacles, or finding balance in your life, I’m here to support you.

Tools to Help You Build a Stronger, Healthier You.

I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you gain the skills and confidence to navigate life’s challenges, with a focus on mindfulness, emotional regulation, and creating healthier habits.

You Have the Power to Reach Your Goals

I believe in empowering you to take control of your life and your journey. Together, we’ll work on boosting your self-esteem, improving communication, and breaking down barriers so you can achieve your goals.

Finding Balance in Life’s Simple Pleasures

When I’m not working, I love relaxing with my dog and a good mystery novel or escaping to nature with a weekend camping trip. Nature keeps me grounded, and I bring that refreshed energy into my work with clients.
