Who We Are

Hi, I’m Brittany Dursi!

I’m a New York–based psychotherapist and founder of Instilled Psychotherapy.

As a native New Yorker, a wife, and mom of two little ones, I understand the pace, pressure, and expectations that come with building a life here. I also understand how easy it is to function at a high level while quietly carrying anxiety, trauma, relationship strain, or exhaustion beneath the surface.

I understand deeply how life is layered, complex, and demanding, especially when you are trying to hold everything together for everyone else.

My work is centered on depth, not just symptom management, but meaningful, lasting change

I have been in the mental health field for over a decade and have worked across a wide range of settings, including psychiatric hospitals, substance use treatment programs, domestic violence shelters, rape crisis response, private practice and as an ABA therapist. My goal is always the same: to create a space that feels safe, steady, and deeply attuned.

Clients often describe our work together as grounding, direct, and deeply supportive. My role is not to fix you but to help you understand yourself more clearly, regulate more effectively, and build relationships that feel secure and alive.

If you are ready for intentional, meaningful growth, I would be honored to work with you.
