Dale Brown

My communication style

I believe that a counseling relationship should always feel safe, supportive, and sincere. I embrace opportunities for joy, humor, and imagination while also welcoming conversations about serious or painful topics. At times, I may ask you difficult questions or present different ways to consider a situation.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist began with a hunger to understand where biology meets psychology. I sought to comprehend the complexity and power of the mind, brain, and body through clinical research. As I continued forward to pursue a career in medicine, a series of difficult life events led me to reevaluate my path.

My goals for you

Goal-setting is an important, collaborative exercise where I see you as the essential expert of your own life. Your goals largely guide mine, and we will periodically check in to adjust as needed. The ultimate goal of therapy is to achieve self-love and acceptance as well as confidence in your ability to resolve future issues.

Our first session

We will start by getting to know each other and setting the stage for the work that follows. I will be curious about what brings you to see me. Are you dealing with a present challenge or hoping to achieve a particular goal? I may ask about related life experiences or previous pursuits in therapy.
