I have over 24 years of professional social work experience in a variety of settings, including outpatient mental health, crisis, home based services and residential treatment facilities. Some of my areas of expertise include helping clients with faith-based issues, relationship conflict, family tension, motivation, self esteem, life transitions & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, and I am proud of you for getting started! ***Please take note that I do not offer regular weekend hours and I only have limited appts that are after 4 or 5pm EST.***
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
On our first session, while it is important that we discuss the concerns that brought you to therapy, I first want to get to know who you are as a person. Whether you have a diagnosis or not, you are a wonderful person who has gifts, talents, and abilities that make you uniquely you and I think it is vital that we start there.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
While I aim to take a warm approach, I also feel it is important to be direct and honest with my clients in order to move them along the healing journey. I do have great active listening skills, but I am blessed to be able to hear what you aren't saying in order to deal with the hidden issues, as I do not believe in cookie cutter therapy. I believe in customizing your session based on what you actually need so that you don't have to say what you think I want you to say.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Clients who work with me often are able to release negative judgments about themselves and others, build healthy relationships, reduce anxiety, depression and self harm. Other clients learn how to integrate their faith to build the life they find worth living. ***Please take note that I do not offer regular weekend hours and I only have limited appts that are after 4 or 5pm EST.***
Christian Counseling
I truly believe that both Therapy and Prayer are effective methods of healing. This means that often the evidence based tools that I utilize have a direct scripture correlation, which helps with the application of the technique.

Dr. Miranda Brown is truly amazing. She really listens, never judges, and makes you feel completely comfortable. She offers thoughtful insight, practical solutions, and guidance that truly helps. I highly recommend her!

I love that she created a safe space for me from the beginning of our session through the end. She was warm and authentic, which allowed me to feel like i didn't need to be guarded. I felt both seen and heard for the first time ever. She also created a goal for our time together based on what I said and verified it was what I desired. I feel good about our sessions going forward and I am excited about the journey ahead!
