Getting to know John Brown

Hi there, I'm John! John W Brown, LCSW, 69088. I believe people already possess the innate wisdom to manage life's challenges. My role is to help you tap into your inner wisdom to move through challenges and thrive. My approach I utilize techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Problem Solving, and Supportive Therapy. My focus I work with individuals managing devastating cancer diagnoses, role loss, difficult life transitions, and issues related to sexual identity. I have years of experience in oncology, HIV/AIDS, and with the LGBTQ community. My communication style I believe individuals must be comfortable to forge a strong therapeutic relationship. I create a warm, relaxed, and structured environment to facilitate healing. My journey to therapy We all get stuck sometimes and can benefit from a fresh perspective. I am most excited when I help facilitate an "aha" moment with a client. These moments often move clients from immobilization and provide valuable personal insights. My goals for you Early in treatment, I work collaboratively with clients to identify the underlying cause of distress and set goals to address it. I believe goals should be flexible as therapy isn't always a straight line to health. My first session with you This is your chance to share who you are and why you seek help. I will answer any questions about myself and my background so you can determine if we are a good fit. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Los Angeles, which laid the foundation for my clinical practice and commitment to client-centered care.
