Welcome! I’m Carissa Brown, and I’m passionate about making therapy more accessible and breaking down the stigma surrounding it. Whether you’re facing challenges in your personal life, seeking support for trauma, or simply looking for a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings, I’m here to help. I specialize in Anxiety, depression, other mood disorders in both adults and children and advocating for children who are atypical,
In therapy, I draw on evidence-based treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed approaches, and Motivational Interviewing. These modalities provide practical tools and support as clients work toward making meaningful, lasting changes.
My approach is rooted in empathy, cultural humility, and a deep commitment to providing compassionate, non-judgmental support. I believe in the power of therapy to create real, lasting change. I’d be honored to work with you, whether you’re an adult or an adolescent, on your journey toward healing and growth. I look forward to speaking with you!

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
