Ken Brown is an incredible resource if you are genuinely interested in being held accountable. He is patient, knowledgeable, and willing to do whatever it takes to help you where you need it most. He and I have worked together for over four months, and I keep coming back because I am seeing is a positive impact on my life. Ken is not one of these counselors that lets you talk and blow off steam. Instead, he is results and action-oriented and will push you. Somehow he knows just how far to go without making you feel overwhelmed but still helping you move forward. Ken is highly boundaried and has strong principles, so you always know it's a professional environment when you are in session with him. That was important to me as a woman talking about really personal stuff with a man. He is firm but also warm. He is both astute and willing to admit that he does not know something. I think he really cares about me and my success, and so when times are tough, or he suggests something hard for me to hear, I trust him. And I try my best to be open to his suggestions, too. My favorite thing about my relationship with him is that it feels like a true collaboration with mutual respect. Thank you, Ken! I will always be grateful to you.

More about Kenneth
- 9 years' experience
- Male
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. My focus is helping adults who may be dealing with mental health and or substance abuse issues. It is my goal to help my clients overcome their challenges in order for them to live healthier, happier, lives. I am a person centered, solution focused therapist with an eclectic approach to treatment. I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. We are all individuals and what works for some, may not work for others. I look forward to meeting my clients where they are and helping them get to where they want to be in their journey toward positive change and recovery. All that being said, please be aware that the therapeutic process is a a collaborative one, as your counselor, I will do all I can to help you so long as you do all you can to adhere to your appointment times and apply what you learn. I firmly believe you will get out of the process exactly what you are willing to put in.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Ken is an excellent therapist and has/is giving me the tools to get better
Extremely helpful and has great insight on how to help me progress with the issues that I’m facing. Very blunt and honest. Very friendly and listens to key points and issues. I enjoy speaking with him on a weekly basis, and eager to get me in a better place for my family and myself.
Kenneth seems quite knowable and a good listener. I highly recommend him.
Very knowledgeable and willing to listen and help
Very professional, responsive and caring. I felt he listened and was able to relate with some personal experiences. It was like talking to a friend.
I was skeptical about counseling at first. Especially since the first counselor I got here was not the best. Then I got Kenneth and everything has been amazing. He really understands me and how to help me. I highly recommend him if you want the best counselor.
