ABOUT ME

I'm Brittany Cox, LCSW — founder of Cox Counseling. I work with overwhelmed women and mothers who are exhausted from constantly holding everything together.

Many of my clients are dealing with anxiety, ADHD, burnout, postpartum changes, or the sheer mental load of trying to be everything for everyone. Therapy with me is direct and specific — not a generic pep talk. We look at what's actually driving the exhaustion, name it accurately, and build tools that hold up outside of a session, not just inside one.

Empowering women and mothers to heal, regulate, and thrive in everyday life.

I specialize in these three situations because I've seen what happens when a woman finally understands what's actually going on with her brain, her nervous system, or her relationship, instead of what she's been told about herself for years.

She stops blaming herself for a brain, a body, or a relationship that was never actually broken. She stops overcompensating — masking the ADHD, performing "fine" through postpartum anxiety, keeping the peace in a marriage that's gone quiet in the wrong way. And she starts building a life that fits who she actually is, instead of who she's been pretending to be to keep everyone else comfortable.

The women and couples I work with aren't struggling because they haven't tried. The ADHD clients have spent years running strategies built for a different kind of brain and wondering why they keep failing anyway. The postpartum clients have smiled through months of feeling like a stranger in their own life because nobody told them that was allowed to be this hard. The couples have read every relationship book there is and are still having the same argument in different clothes. They come to me burned out, ashamed, and usually further along in understanding their own situation than they've given themselves credit for.

My approach is direct and built around what's specifically driving each situation — the masking and shame spiral underneath ADHD, the nervous system still in survival mode after having a baby, the automatic cycle keeping two people who love each other stuck in the same fight. Not one generic template stretched across all three.

We do real work here. We look at what's actually driving the burnout, not just how to manage the to-do list. We work on nervous system regulation, identity, shame, and building systems that are sustainable for how you're actually wired.

You don't have to perform here. You don't have to have it together. You just have to be willing to do something different.

Why I specialize in ADHD, postpartum, and couples work

My approach is direct, collaborative, and grounded in what's actually happening for you — not a script, and not pressure to perform wellness before you feel it.

I work with women, mothers, and couples who are overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, burned out, or stuck in survival mode. Many of my clients are navigating ADHD, postpartum challenges, anxiety, relationship stress, or the mental load of trying to hold everything together for everyone else.

Together, we work on understanding what's actually going on beneath the surface while building practical tools that hold up in real life — not just in the session. My approach blends CBT and ACT with nervous system support and emotional processing, so you leave calmer, more regulated, and more like yourself.

In sessions, I aim to be direct and honest, not clinical and distant. I'm not here to tell you how you "should" feel. I'm here to help you understand what's actually driving the pattern, strengthen your relationships, and build a life that's more manageable, connected, and yours.
