Brittany Gray (she/her)

LCPC
Accepting Clients

Hello! I'm Brittany and I am a therapist at Gemstone Wellness in downtown Chicago. I currently see clients online and in-person.

Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Chicago, IL

About My Clients

My clients are adults and couples who seek to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and how they show up in this world. I want to assist people in becoming their fully realized emotional selves by creating a non-judgmental and sex-positive space for them to safely explore their feelings and share their vulnerabilities. The therapeutic relationship, and collaboration within it, is a crucial component of my work as well as something that I build and honor throughout the therapeutic process.

My Background and Approach

I believe that the examination of emotions is critical to cultivating a meaningful life, and that our feelings provide limitless information and guidance, if we learn to understand them. The discussion of progress with clients is an important aspect to the work that I do to help eliminate feelings of stagnation while also improving self-esteem and self-worth. My clients will receive my full attention along with my warm, inviting energy throughout every session. Some areas of my clinical focus include life transitions, anxiety, depression, identity and/or sexuality exploration, relationship issues, trauma, and sex-related issues. I primarily approach therapy utilizing an emotion-focused perspective but I integrate techniques from Relational-Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Attachment Theory when best suited.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I work to de-stigmatize mental health issues and ascribe to the notion that everyone can benefit from therapy. I strongly believe in the importance of a socially equitable society so I am actively committed to the pursuit of anti-racist beliefs, behaviors, and systems. I possess a strong awareness of the ways in which social factors can profoundly influence a person’s experience, and I seek to acknowledge and process these facets with my clients.
