“This was my first therapy after a long time without one. He was very open and understandable, he definitely creates a safe space.”

“This was my first time ever seeing a therapist, and I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect—but Anthony made it feel surprisingly comfortable. He was warm, down-to-earth, and somehow knew how to ask the right questions without making it feel like an interrogation. I didn’t think I’d be able to open up so quickly, but I left our session feeling lighter and a little more hopeful than I’ve felt in a while. If you’re nervous about starting therapy, I can’t recommend him enough. He made it feel like a really safe place to begin.”

Getting to know Anthony Brown
Hi, I’m Anthony, and I’m really glad you’re here. Therapy is a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out—you just have to show up as you are. My goal is to provide a supportive environment where you can freely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at a pace that feels right for you. My approach is collaborative and person-centered—we’ll work together to identify what matters most to you and find practical tools to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and aligned with your values. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, burnout, stress, life transitions, trauma, or relationship challenges, I’ll meet you where you are and help you take meaningful steps forward.
I draw from evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, to tailor each session to your unique needs. Therapy isn’t just about learning new skills—it’s about creating a deeper mind-body connection and managing overwhelm and emotional dysregulation in ways that support your well-being. I strive to make sessions feel engaging, supportive, and insightful in ways you might not expect. We’ll balance learning new skills and putting them into practice—whether becoming more present, reconnecting with what’s important, or processing trauma when you’re ready.
I tailor therapy to each person’s unique needs by drawing on various evidence-based methods because there is no “one size fits all” approach. My professional experience spans hospital settings to outpatient programs, and I’ve worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Social Work from the University of Chicago: Hyde Park, which has deeply informed my practice. No matter your story or goals, I’m here to walk alongside you as we navigate this journey together. If you’re looking for a supportive, strengths-focused partner in your healing process, I’d be honored to help you find greater well-being and fulfillment in your life.
What should a new client know about working with you?
In our first couple of sessions, I’m taking the time to get to know you, understand your history, and clarify what you need from therapy. By doing this groundwork, we set the stage for meaningful progress. After these initial sessions, we’ll work together to set clear goals and begin moving in the direction you want. Along the way, I’ll also share practical tools and strategies to help you find relief in your day-to-day life.

Anthony is a great therapist. His energy is very laid back and easy to talk to. He has mixed therapy with some art therapy which was very creative and useful. I can recommend Anthony as you will feel comfortable having conversations with him.

First time in therapy and skeptic about what it could do for my depression I’m 3 sessions in and invested. Anthony’s approach is dynamic yet calming and approachable. He has given me some direct feedback and tools to use right away.

Anthony is warm and compassionate. He created a nonjudgmental space where I felt truly heard and understood. He empowered me to take steps and work through tough moments I would normally try to avoid. I leave my sessions feeling more grounded and hopeful. Love working with him so far!
