Britt Palmer

Britt is the owner, a psychotherapist and equine professional at Connections. Britt created this program in order to be able to combine what she sees as the most effective forms of psychotherapy and intervention. It is not enough to just understand behaviors. Most therapist training focuses on learning how to be insightful. That doesn’t change behavior. A therapist needs to know how to help you change your behavior. She loves working with couples and families and offers intensives in addition to outpatient hourly therapy. Britt believes in the power of experiential therapy such as equine assisted psychotherapy, art therapy, mindfulness, yoga and intuitive movement, and EMDR (yes, this can be very experiential), and organizes her treatment with contextual therapy, attachment theory, and neurosequential development and regulation.

The technical stuff: Since 1999, Britt has had the privilege of working in the mental health field. She works with individuals, couples, families and groups. She is certified and is an approved consultant in training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), is a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist and Supervisor. She has been dually certified in two equine therapy models as both a mental health professional and equine professional, and has been a trainer with Natural Lifemanship Trauma Focused Equine Assisted Psychotherapy. She is also certified in the Trauma Conscious Yoga Method, and the Safe and Sound Protocol. She is also trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy.  Britt is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (TN and CA) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (CA) and is an AAMFT Approved Supervisor. She has been the West Tn Director of TNAMFT since 2022.
