About Me
Krista Brown, LICSW, MHP, CMHS
I have extensive experience working with trauma and enjoy researching it in my spare time. In addition to trauma, I have a passion for working with people who are exploring their identities. I work with a client-centered orientation and offer a safe and comforting environment to challenge yourself towards positive and effective change.

I completed my Masters in Social Work through University of Southern California. While in my masters, I was an in-home trauma therapist.
