My name is John W Brown. I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 12 years of experience. I see individuals dealing with multiple issues including anxiety, depression, managing difficult medical diagnoses, role loss, and life transitions. I have several years of experience working in oncology, HIV/AIDS, and with members of the LGBTQ community. I utilize techniques from several modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Problem Solving techniques, and Supportive Therapy. My role is to help you tap back into your own inner wisdom to move through challenges and thrive.
I believe that individuals must be truly comfortable in order to forge a strong therapeutic relationship. My approach is to foster this by creating a warm, relaxed and structured environment to facilitate healing. As a therapist, I am most excited when I help facilitate an "aha" moment with a client.
Our first session is your chance to let me know who you are and why you are seeking help. I will answer any questions you might have about myself and my background so that you may determine whether or not we are a good fit to tackle the work ahead. If you think we might be a good fit, I encourage you to reach out today.
Take the first step to help. Call or John Brown now - (916) 602-3937
