Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


Welcome. I’m Dr. Tawnya H. Brown, a clinically licensed social worker based in Maryland and licensed to practice in MD, DC, and VA. For over 28 years, I have supported individuals and families through life’s most difficult and meaningful transitions, with a special focus on working with families, youth, and young adults.

Reaching out for support is one of the most important steps you can take as you begin a new chapter in your life. Whether you are dealing with depression, trauma, major life changes, difficult transitions, challenging relationship decisions, self-esteem or self-worth concerns, or simply feeling that the way you are managing life is not helping you move toward a better place, you do not have to walk through it alone.

I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, understanding, and hope. Together, we can work toward healing, clarity, and growth—and get to the other side of this stronger, healthier, and with renewed hope.

Welcome! I commend you on taking this big step to start working on your healing journey. I am a licensed clinical therapist with a Master’s degree in Social Work and over seven years of experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and with a variety of life experiences and challenges. My professional experience has allowed me to support clients as they navigate emotional, behavioral, relational, and life transitions.

I enjoy utilizing evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. I uses CBT to help clients identify and challenge negative or unhelpful thought patterns while developing healthier ways of thinking and responding. Through Motivational Interviewing, I empower clients to identify their strengths, explore their own reasons for change, and take meaningful steps toward their personal goals.

Life can feel overwhelming — and sometimes the weight of anxiety, depression, or past trauma can make it hard to see a way forward. I'm here to help you make sense of what you're carrying and find a path toward feeling more like yourself again.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 7 years of experience supporting adults through some of life's most difficult moments. Over the past 3.5 years as an independently licensed therapist, I've had the privilege of walking alongside clients navigating anxiety, depression, and the lasting effects of trauma. My approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based practices — evidence-backed tools that I tailor to fit you, not the other way around.

I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen and safe. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming, and I'm committed to creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment.
