Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Opelika, AL


Healing happens when you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, OCD, family conflict, anger management, and cultural & ethnic identity concerns while also helping clients facing depression, trauma, stress, grief, ADHD, relationship challenges, women's issues, physical health concerns, and life transitions. With more than 17 years of experience in mental health, I bring a diverse background that includes private practice, school counseling, and serving as an Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant. These experiences have strengthened my belief that lasting growth happens through meaningful connections—with ourselves, our relationships, and our communities. Whether you're seeking support during a difficult season or looking to create lasting change, I'm committed to meeting you where you are with compassion, respect, and practical guidance.

I am an LCSW in Georgia (CSW009909) and LICSW in Alabama (6757C) providing therapy for PTSD in a cozy office in downtown Savannah, Georgia, or via telehealth.

If you have watched yourself and your life become unrecognizable in the aftermath of a traumatic event that left you plagued by anxiety and shame, I would be honored to walk alongside you to find a hopeful path forward.

I am trained in and utilize both Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to treat PTSD. I work collaboratively with clients during the intake process to identify which of these treatment modalities is most suitable for their treatment.

Jerusalem Brown

Therapist

Virtual • Alabama


You may already know why you overfunction, people-please, silence yourself, or keep repeating patterns in relationships that leave you drained. Insight matters, but it is not the finish line. I help people turn what they know into boundaries, emotional self-trust, and choices that reflect the life they are ready to lead.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist, a nationally certified counselor, a former adjunct psychology instructor in higher education, and the founder of Mental Health Monarchs. With more than 15 years of experience in mental health, including 6 years as a therapist, I work with adults navigating childhood trauma, emotional neglect, family dysfunction, identity concerns, and toxic relationship patterns.

My style is intuitive, culturally grounded, curious, and compassion-forward. We’ll explore what is underneath your patterns without making therapy feel stiff or overly clinical. We can leave the work voice outside. I’m not code-switching with you. Cool?

This space is best suited for people who are ready for honest reflection and willing to begin using new tools in real time, in real life. I give homework.
