Getting to know Victor Brown

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from Adelphi University, I bring expertise in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Harm Reduction Therapy, and other evidence-based modalities. I am dedicated to supporting individuals in their journey toward improved mental health and well-being. I work with both children and adults facing various mental health challenges, providing a compassionate and collaborative approach to therapy. In addition to individual therapy, I specialize in Couples Therapy for partners committed to saving their marriage and improving their relationship. I work with couples to enhance communication skills, rebuild trust, and strengthen their emotional connection. My approach to Couples Therapy is collaborative, non-judgmental, and focused on fostering a supportive environment where both partners can explore and address relationship issues.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am committed to creating a safe and supportive space for my clients to explore their concerns, build resilience, and work towards positive change. Through a strengths-based and culturally sensitive approach, I aim to empower individuals and couples to overcome challenges, enhance their coping skills, and achieve their therapeutic goals.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I believe in the power of CBT to help individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to their distress. Motivational Interviewing techniques are utilized to enhance motivation for change and empower clients to make positive decisions in their lives. Solution-Focused Therapy is employed to help clients set achievable goals and work towards practical solutions to their problems. I also incorporate Harm Reduction Therapy principles to support individuals in reducing the negative consequences of substance use and other harmful behaviors. By promoting a non-judgmental and client-centered approach, I strive to empower individuals to make healthier choices and improve their overall well-being.
