Brittani Joy Senser, MSW, LGSW, DBT facilitator
Mental health therapist at Kristen Lund Psychotherapy
On February 6, 2019, Brittani lost her only child, 13-year-old Aria Joy, to suicide. At that moment, it became clear to Brittani that for Aria, and for thousands of other youth in the United States, suicide prevention is not good enough.
Since that day, Brittani has focused her energy and career on creating steps to take before a child or teen ever reaches the point of suicidal ideation. She has created a model to teach kids how to emotionally regulate from when they are young through their high school years.
Brittani is the founder of DOYOUCARENOW.life. She is the Community Youth Director for Shout Out Loud. She has been a panelist for Suicide Survivor’s Day for the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention, and is the community liaison for the Minnesota Department of Health’s Zero Suicide Initiative.
