Meet the Team
Brittany LaFleur, LCPC-S, RPT
Hi!
I began practicing in 2014 as a Licensed School Counselor and then moved into private practice as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I received my Bachelor’s from the University of Maryland and my Master’s in Counseling from Johns Hopkins University. I am a Nationally Board Certified Counselor and a member of the American Counseling Association. I have a deep passion for aiding individuals in their journey toward becoming their best selves, which is why I started Your Best Self therapeutic services in 2018.
