ABOUT ME

Hi, My name is Marilyn Brown. I have been working as a social worker since 2013. I enjoy helping people who struggle with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and PTSD. I am able to help people to work through the pain and trauma from their past and develop stronger relationships with the ones they love most. 

I enjoy using treatment modalities, such and EMDR, IFS and CBT to help my clients to process their traumas and learn more about their inner self. With these tools we are able to learn more about where these feelings come and how to move forward. I am able to build an alliance with my clients that allows us to work on the root of their pain.

Making the first appointment can be scary and intimidating. Therapy is the first step in healing and learning skills to cope with the struggles we have in our lives. If you have any questions about the process please feel free to contact me via email or phone.
