Specialty Services

Brittany Hayes is a Licensed Professional Counselor working at Pauquette Center’s Sauk office. Her approach involves even the youngest of clients in learning, growing, and healing through a number of life difficulties. Previously she has worked in community mental health supporting parents and children involved in child protection and the foster care system; inpatient psychiatric units for schizophrenia spectrum disorders, suicidality, and self-harm behaviors; and tribal behavioral health with a focus on individuals and families impacted by addiction and incarceration.

Brittany’s clinical background and experience initially focused on working with children and adolescents who had experienced traumatic events and has developed into also treating all ages who struggle with addiction, harmful behaviors, suicidal thoughts, and Borderline Personality Disorder. She is one of Pauquette’s Dialectical Behavior Therapy providers taking clients for DBT (adults,) DBT-A (adolescents and family,) DBT-SUD (substance use disorders,) and DBT-C (parents and children.)

Outside of DBT, her therapy style for children and adults alike combines an attachment-based, collaborative approach, which is highly personalized to best explore and meet the needs of each individual client. She works to build a trusting relationship with her clients which tends to look a little different for everyone.
