Meet Our Team

My name is Brittany Thammavongkeo, and I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker at Midwest Wellness Institute. I earned my master’s degree from University of South Dakota and hold certifications as a Qualified Mental Health Professional and Certified Addiction Counselor.

I specialize in addiction, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and more. I primarily work with teens and adults. I have experience working with individuals in custody. My approach to care is collaborative, strength-focused, and straightforward. I often use trauma-focused interventions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and reality interventions to support my clients.

I chose this profession because I have a desire to assist individuals through difficult times, working with them to overcome challenges, and foster personal growth. I find it most rewarding to watch clients have a new experience of themselves that opens them up for a better quality of life.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family. You can often find us at a softball or baseball field or basketball court. I believe these activities help me stay balanced and energized to support my clients.
