Psy.D., Clinical Psychologist (She/Her)

Dr. Brittany Findlan Sawant

Brittany Findlan-Sawant , Psy.D., LPC (she/her/hers) is a Clinical Psychologist Candidate and an MSC Associate Level II Therapist supervised by Aimee Solis, LCPC. She provides telehealth services to Illinois residents with increased accessibility for Colorado (in-person and virtual). Dr. Findlan-Sawant works with individuals ages 14 + and specializes in eating disorder recovery, helping clients learn to heal poor body image and self-esteem, mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, sexual assault/abuse survivors, and women’s issues. She strives to provide a safe, empathic space to those she works with and is dedicated to being a non-judgmental presence for clients. Dr. Findlan-Sawant’s approach within therapy would be described as a deep, collaborative exploration of one’s inner life, valuing the impact that early relationships and current relationships have on an individual’s sense of themselves and the world. She utilizes a combination of both traditional and non-traditional therapeutic approaches, including DBT, ACT, psychodynamic and feminist theory, and ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy).

About quick hello from Dr. Brittany

When not wearing my “therapist hat”, I enjoy exploring the mountains and rugged terrain of Colorado with my husband and our Siberian husky mix, Brynn. I'm a lifelong gardener, lover of hiking, and a big fan of bird watching. I also am a distance runner and cyclist who appreciates the way these movements help me to have gratitude for my body and what it's capable of. WhenI'm not outside, I enjoy time relaxing at home with a good show, non-fiction book, and/or an RPG video game.
