Lynn Brown, EdD, LPC |
As a person who lives with a progressively debilitating health issue, I contend with the need to constantly adjust to ongoing
loss. Early in my life, I came to have a philosophy of living that has served me well; allowing for an attitude of gratitude
and a sense of purpose that manifests in inner peace based upon authenticity. In all that I do, my desire is to create the
opportunity for others to recognize and act on their empowerment.

I'm a guide and the cornerstones of my brand are non judgmental self-awareness, empowerment, and growth; based upon the idea
that each of us is capable of becoming a Thriver who has recognized their True Self. These elements are also a good representation
of my personality and life path. As a lifelong learner, I appreciate a desire to always be seeking opportunities for growth,
challenge, and leaving a comfort zone to embrace change. My target audience is lifelong learners who are interested in healing
and growth.
EXPERIENCE
I
have been working with clients for many years, using humanistic and cognitive therapy modalities with the adults and couples
whom I treat.
I believe in the inherent ability of everyone
to heal and grow when provided the appropriate opportunity.
My
approach is honoring, kind, and forthright to enable my clients to feel safe, not judged, and yet make the progress they desire
on their path to enhanced well-being.
I am a Professional Counselor licensed by
the State of Michigan (No. 6401006543).
