As a licensed therapist in Georgia, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions, personal growth, and emotional challenges. My approach centers on empowering clients to develop deeper self-understanding and resilience, particularly for young adults and women experiencing workplace stress, social anxiety, and personal identity exploration.
I bring a compassionate, culturally responsive perspective to therapy, with expertise in addressing mood disorders, communication difficulties, and life purpose challenges. My practice focuses on helping clients work through guilt, shame, attachment issues, and personal transformation.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I create a supportive environment where individuals can explore their experiences, develop healthy coping strategies, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. I'm committed to meeting each client exactly where they are, honoring their unique journey and strengths.

Dr. Brown has proven to be the perfect match for me. She is a non-anxious presence who serves as a hopeful guide through the counseling journey. She begins her sessions with a recap of the previous session and makes note of the goals you all are working toward. She is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. She conveys understanding and empathy. And while I can tell that she can connect with a variety of people from various cultural backgrounds and walks of life, I have especially appreciated the inherent, unspoken understanding we have as fellow Black women. I have felt accepted and liberated from even the early inklings of shame. I’m grateful Dr. Brown is a betterhelp therapist!
