I hope with all my heart that your life is working just as it should. I hope your life is full of wonder and joy, friendships and family, fulfilling work, and a promising future. As much as I may hope for it, and as much as you may wish for it, sometimes this just isn't happening. Sometimes unexpected, painful, and difficult events occur, leaving you feeling beaten up and broken. If this is where you are, you need to know it can get better! We can work on it together to make it better! You don't have to do this alone. Alone can be scary; together is better. :-)

Hello, my name is Christa Brown and I have the privilege of being in a field helping others. I will paraphrase an old Irish proverb to give an example of how I see the counseling relationship. "A tree alone in a storm may not have the best chance to survive or thrive, although, a tree that is amongst the forest in the storm has the best chance of survival and thriving." My hope is that in the counseling relationship my client's learn to draw from their own strength and the support of others to survive and thrive when they encounter storms in their lives.

I will listen carefully as you teach me about your life. I will listen to your words and to what your body is saying. We will work together, partners on a mission to discover ways your life might become more functional and satisfying. Your stay with me may be brief or lengthy, but will consist of the time and content that meets your personal needs. Whether the issue troubling you is about distressing thoughts or feelings, destructive behaviors, relational difficulties, a general sense of failure, or if you struggle with undiagnosed illness, come, let's explore together and find ways to improve your life.

Life can be full of joyful moments, but it can also contain times of hurt and painful, unmet expectations. The reality we face can crash into our dreams, bursting our hopes, leaving us shattered with disappointment. Not only can it leave us to manage a real-life crisis, the result can be a crisis of belief and confusion about our purpose and direction in life.

My approach to mental health counseling is very simple, one that encompasses unconditional positive regard and that encourages self-exploration throughout the therapeutic encounter. The client is considered the expert of his/her own life who may need support when challenges or obstacles become overwhelming and/or problematic (maladaptive). Through this therapeutic collaboration clients learn to identify how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors may positively or negatively impact their daily experience. If problematic belief patterns are identified, the client will co-create a treatment plan aimed to reduce the negative symptomatology while enhancing the client's self-esteem and overall well-being.

I enjoy helping patients with their mental health issues by identifying their strengths and working to overcome the problems that they face. I help my clients understand that we all face challenges and that we are not alone in our struggles. I address each of my clients needs at their own level and empower them to find their own solution to their individual issues.

If you are experiencing a crisis or simply a time in your life or in your relationships with others that causes you to feel that your expectations have not been met, you may feel stuck. You may feel anxious, depressed, angry, scared or hopeless. In my counseling practice I offer you the opportunity to express those feelings in a safe and non-judgmental environment. Together we will explore both the place you currently find yourself in and the path that led you to that place so that you can begin to establish a new direction for yourself.

I am so glad you are here. Through our non-judgmental guidance and culturally sensitive mental health care, our team is dedicated to providing a safe space. We are all passionate about providing hope for all of life's struggles. In our practice, we want to help you improve relationships-starting with the most important relationship, the relationship with yourself. Whether you are single, dating, married, or navigating a divorce, we want to help you be the best version of you.

Let’s be honest, therapy can be intimidating, but you’re ready to take the first step toward healing. I approach therapy as a partnership and together, we can navigate your journey of healing and self-discovery.

Therapy can seem intimidating, but I hope that I can make the process a little easier for you. My passion is working with college students, adolescents, and adults to help people explore their emotions and create positive changes to better their quality of life. Life can be really overwhelming- whether its a major life change, stress from school or work, or processing trauma. My goal is to support you as we process your experiences and figure out how we can make realistic steps towards improving your overall wellbeing. I'm a proud ally and have experience working with diverse populations so I am ready to meet you wherever you're at.

We are experiencing so many changes in our world at this time. This is causing feelings of anxiety and depression. Our normal day to day lives however are still happening. Good mental health is a journey not a destination. I believe in the importance of emotional wellness.

There is more to life than just "getting through." We all have a desire to live a fulfilling & impactful life but this society does NOT show us how. To create that is absolutely possible if you have the right education, lifestyle, & mentor that fits you. This was the case in my life, & is why I respect that each person is different & requires their own path. So, I create personalized programs for all my patients & clients to address their issues at the ROOT & rebuild their daily lives on a foundation of knowledge, joy, & habits that align them with their true intentions. Once the wins start accruing.. success is guaranteed.

Life can be overwhelming at times. With change, decisions, loss, or pain, we can feel confused, scared, depressed, or just stuck. Finding hope and courage in life to face these stressors often times feels lonely and exhausting. Joining with you along this journey toward personal growth and change in the face of those life challenges is where I focus my work with clients. I see the therapeutic relationship as the most effective tool for increasing understanding of yourself, your relationships, and how to move toward what you desire in life. I strive to create a therapeutic space that feels safe and inviting of self reflection.
