I was terrified to change providers, but choosing Dr. Brown was the best decision I could make. He listens, truly cares, and most importantly, treats me as a person. Through medication management and therapy, he’s shown dedication and created a safe space where I can be honest about even the most difficult struggles. For the first time in 20+ years, I feel like I can finally make progress, and during those times that I feel unfixable, he’s still there encouraging and believing in me.

Dr. Brown was very non judgemental at our first session, when I word-vomited all over him! Lol He shared some things with and offered me some solutions that made feel very comfortable. Looking forward to our next sess, Doc!
