Getting to know Octalonda Brown

Hi, I’m Londa Brown, LCSW, founder of Hope & Relief Counseling, LLC. I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space for adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I also work with teens and adolescents who are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with emotional regulation. My style is collaborative, down-to-earth, and strengths-based. Together, we’ll identify what’s been weighing on you, explore patterns that keep you stuck, and build practical tools for coping, healthier boundaries, and stronger communication-so you can feel more grounded and confident in daily life. Therapy with me is personalized and paced with care. If you’re ready for meaningful change and steady support, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your healing journey.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
