Renata Plonska Brown

My therapeutic style is warm, direct, and refreshingly interactive. I’m not a passive listener—I’m an engaged partner in your growth. Expect plenty of thoughtful feedback, and yes, a healthy dose of humor when it fits. I especially love working with couples and watching them strengthen their connection and create lasting change together.

I bring extensive experience across diverse mental health settings—from psychiatric ERs to private practice—with a special focus on supporting LGBTQ clients. If you're curious about working together, let’s chat by phone and see if we are a good fit. :)

I am deeply committed to providing my patients with unconditional support at every step of their journey toward healing and growth. I take seriously the responsibility of creating a safe, supportive space—one that not only fosters comfort but also empowers meaningful change and lasting relief from emotional challenges.

I help clients build insight into their emotions and respond with greater flexibility and self-compassion. Using ACT, we focus on staying present, clarifying values, and taking meaningful action—even when things feel tough. I work gently with trauma, identity, and relationship challenges, always emphasizing self-care and balance.
