About me
Dr. Brittny Gainey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over fifteen years of experience. She currently serves and supports students in Hampton City Schools as a school social worker. Her experiences in and outside of the public school system have given her a unique perspective of student achievement and how it intersects with emotional, mental, and behavioral health. Dr. Gainey believes in the Whole Child, Whole School, Whole Community concept. She is driven to help others understand how these factors influence one another and the value in giving children, their families and their community a voice. Dr. Gainey is a strong advocate for social work and stands on the values of service, social justice, dignity and worth of a person, and the importance of human relationships.
Outside of Hampton City Schools, Dr. Gainey is an adjunct instructor for Norfolk State University, School of Social Work, Hub Team Member for the Virginia Partnership for School Mental Health, Co-Owner of Mother to Daughter, LLC and Owner of The Middle Ground Counseling and Consulting.
