Brittany Momah
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about social justice and ending relational violence. I received my Master's of Social Service from Bryn Mawr’s Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research in 2019.
I am passionate about advocating for and working with BIPOC individuals, the LGBTQIA+ community, and people who have experienced relational trauma.
I have experience working with a diverse set of populations- including, but not limited to, substance use, intimate partner violence/domestic violence, gender-based violence, sexual trauma, childhood trauma, and mental health disorders. I am passionate about advocating for and working with BIPOC individuals, the LGBTQIA+ community, and people who have experienced relational trauma. In my spare time, I can be found snuggling my pets, reading, listening to podcasts, or binging a Netflix series.
First session
In our first session, we will discuss what to expect from therapy. I will focus on some important aspects of your background, but mostly about what's bringing you in today. You never have to answer questions you are uncomfortable with and I will often stop to ask if you have questions or concerns along the way.
Strengths
I feel that, in so many ways, my work aligns with my personality and my identity. I am a caretaker by nature and am extremely empathetic. I am passionate about advocacy, social justice, and human rights. This makes being a therapist the perfect role for me.
Ideal clients
My clients often struggle with anxiety, depression, and mood disruptions. They have usually experienced trauma and/or abuse. I work with all adults, but primarily serve Black and Brown individuals, other people of color, people in the LGBTQIA+ community, and people who identify as women.
Treatment methods
Attachment-based
I utilize attachment theory to discuss attachment styles, what you learned about relationships, and how to unlearn unhealthy relational patterns.
Trauma-Informed Care
I always incorporate a trauma lens into my work. Trauma is something that happened to you, not something that defines you.
