I am a Doctor of Social Work and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 5 years of experience in clinical mental health based in Metro Atlanta. The settings I have worked in includes; acute inpatient, outpatient, community-based care where I provided mental health evaluations, group/family and individual counseling and case management services. I have experience working with a litany of mental health diagnosis: PTSD, trauma, depression/suicidality, anxiety, bipolar, compulsive disorders, personality disorders, and psychosis. The populations that I have serviced includes: Individuals with mild intellectual/developmental disabilities, veterans, members of the LGBTQIA community and multicultural individuals. I have also worked as a mobile assessor for multiple hospitals providing mental health assessments and crisis intervention in their emergency room. As a therapist I am a proponent of prioritizing the client's mental health and overall well-being. I utilize an eclectic approach which will be tailored to their specific needs using strengths-based, trauma-informed care, person-in-environment, multicultural, integrative and holistic approach. The treatment modalities which underpin my practice are evidence-based and include, cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, existential therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and psychodynamic psychotherapy.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Dr.Brown is a down to earth, but still professional and caring therapist. She makes me feel seen and heard, but still calls me in when I’m spiraling or feel lost. She takes the time to let me vent, but we also work through some things thru smaller assignments.

Dr Brown has been a great. She helps me to be more centred and is a good listener. I would recommend her.

Dr Brown has helped a lot. When I started I was in crisis. She has given me a few tools to help avoid self destructive thoughts. I still don't use them often; they're not my nature. But maybe someday.

Dr. Brown is a great listener and I love how she responds to my journal entries. She maximizes the time we spend together and I have been doing better since starting counseling with her.

I have only had 1 session so far with Dr Brown and she has been amazing during the session. So far, she has shown she does not have any preconceived biases and we talked a variety of topics instead of focusing on one topic. It has been very helpful doing therapy, validating my feelings and learning how to cope with the negative feelings.

I haven't had many sessions with Dr brown but I am confident in her. she makes me feel validated in everything I say to her both my feelings and thoughts. I am excited to move forward with her in my journey to better myself and I believe she will be a great help

I love her compassion and concern. I love that she checks on me and sends an automatic reminder for me to write in my Journal (I forget that and the email reminders jog my memory). She's awesome. :)

Dr. Brown is incredibly knowledgeably in her field and approaches clients with a beautiful degree of empathy and understanding. She clearly is able detect what I need from clinical services and I am incredibly grateful for her skills.
