When Brittany Todd first founded B Balanced in Pawleys Island, SC, the practice began as a Wellness Center with an emphasis on yoga, movement, massage therapy, and life coaching. After moving back to Winston – Salem in 2016, Brittany re-opened B Balanced as private practice counseling with an emphasis on overall health and well – being. As a Winston Salem native, Brittany is passionate about supporting her community and it’s members through multiple avenues of outreach and connection. Therefore, B Balanced Counseling & Wellness embodies a clear mission of community and collaborative care, with the goal of spreading mental health awareness and bringing people together in health and wellness. Brittany’s focus of creating a unique, comfortable, accepting, safe space for all of our clients at B Balanced Counseling has led B Balanced to have a feel as the “Cheers” of mental health.

Brittany continues to enjoy her own personal mental health journey, practicing what she preaches daily in order to show up in the best way for herself, her clients, the BB team, and her precious loved ones.
