Hi, I’m Brittaney Ratzlaff, and I’m so glad you’re here!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate with over a decade of experience walking alongside children, families, and communities through some of life’s most difficult moments. My work is rooted in compassion, connection, and a deep belief in people’s capacity to grow and heal.

I specialize in trauma-informed care, child welfare, parenting support, and helping families find strength and stability in the face of stress or change. Whether I’m supporting a caregiver, helping a child navigate big emotions, or guiding a family through the systems around them. I show up with empathy, respect, and practical tools that empower long-term growth and change.

I earned my BSW and MSW from East Carolina University and am certified in both Mental Health First Aid and Triple Positive Parenting Program iLevels 3, 4, and 5. My professional background includes everything from hands-on child welfare work to leading prevention programs and building collaborative community partnerships.

If you’re looking for someone who will meet you where you are with kindness, insight, and a commitment to real, meaningful progress, I’d love to connect!

I currently have openings available for children ages 4-13 years old in person and telehealth available for ages 14+. For a free 15 minute consultation or to refer send an email to brpeacecounseling@gmail.com

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas with peace and joy ❤️💚

Can you help a teen smile this Christmas?
While many holiday programs focus on little ones, our teens are often forgotten, and yet they’re the ones who need to feel seen, valued, and loved just as much.

For the 8th year, our Tinsel for Teens program is stepping in to make sure NO teen wakes up on Christmas feeling overlooked!

We are currently seeking:
💛 Volunteers
🎁 Gift donors
🎄 Holiday sponsors

If you believe every teen deserves to feel like they matter, especially at Christmas, we’d love for you to join us.

Comment “I’m in!” for info
or
Message us to donate, sponsor, or volunteer

Together, we can give our teens a reason to smile 😊
