Meet Gary and Brittany Wardlaw

Gary and Brittany Wardlaw are the founders and co-owners of The Relationship Clinic, a mental health clinic.

Brittany received her Business degrees in International Business and Marketing but then went on to earn her Juris Doctor degree shortly thereafter. While it was her intention to get in the courtroom when she finished, she ended up taking a position in higher education (thinking it to be temporary) but finding a niche in conflict resolution—specifically mediation and restorative justice. The move to The Relationship Clinic was a natural next step.

Gary’s experience began as a counselor at the local YMCA. From there, his clinical experience was gained in psychiatric facilities, the K12 school system, and in church settings where he provided pre-marital therapy and education to couples looking to tie the knot.

Whether through psychoeducation, group, or individual therapy, Gary affirms that it’s time for us as a community to heal from the generational trauma we’ve carried for centuries while coping with the trauma currently.
