Brittney is a clinical counselor, a certified meditation guide, and a registered yoga teacher. Meditation, Yoga (Philosophy and Asanas), cognitive psychology, neurobiology, and counseling have been the tools that have helped her to befriend her suffering and sometimes heal from it.
Her connection to meditation and Yoga began to deepen about 10 years ago in an attempt to heal from workplace burnout and maladaptive coping strategies. For the last 4 years, she has been sharing the physical practice of Yoga and meditation with folks from all walks of life through her online community Mindfully Being Well, as a corporate wellness facilitator, and as a trauma-informed Yoga teacher trainer at Yoga Outreach. Now, as a trauma-informed clinical counselor, she works collaboratively with clients utilizing mind-body connection and relationship to support full body, heart, and mind healing and integration.
In the context of mindfulness, mediation, and Yoga, Brittney feels that it is important to locate herself within a sociocultural context to acknowledge that these sacred philosophies and practices are not part of her ethnic or cultural heritage.
Brittney is originally from a rural community in the interior of what is colonially known as British Columbia. Her father's family came to Turtle Island from what was then Prussia at the end of the 1700s. They were Mennonite pacifists and were fleeing religious persecution and military inscription. Her mother's parents are of Irish, Scottish, German, British, and Cowichan descent. She was the first in her immediate family to graduate high school, university.
Brittney’s understanding, practice, and teaching of mindfulness, meditation and Yoga are earnest and with deep gratitude for her teachers' teachers.
