My therapeutic approach combines Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and many more.
Hi! My name is Gena Brown, I am a LPC licensed in the state of Oklahoma with over 4 years experience. After working as a Special Education teacher for 11 years I decided to leave the classroom and focus on helping people work through the struggles they face. I have worked with clients from the age of 4 to adult with a multitude of presenting issues such as depression, anxiety, parenting conflicts, behavioral concerns, neurodevelopment disorders, family conflicts, trauma, and PTSD. I believe that each step of the therapeutic process should be goal focused, to help my clients reach therapy goals and personal goals.

I've focused my professional training on just a few modalities: Theraplay, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT).
My goal as a therapist is to help kids, teens, and young adults have healthy attachments, high self-esteem, and the skills to handle big emotions. Together we can identify and disrupt troubling behavioral patterns and ditch the unhelpful family traditions passed down through generations. If you are tired of the status quo and able to commit to the therapeutic process (which can be inconvenient and uncomfortable at times), we may be a good match for each other. Please note: I have opted out of Oklahoma's health information exchange and offer affirming care.

I am so proud of you for taking this first step into healing journey! You've heard the sayings...I’m not worthy, I’m nobody, I lost hope a long time ago, I’ll always be this way, I’ll never get through this. All of these sayings are what most of us believed at some point on this journey called life. Searching for a glimmer of hope seems impossible when life makes you feel that you are all alone. Those are all lies that we are forced to believe, but there is hope for those misguided beliefs. You are powerful, strong, and worthy. I would love to walk alongside you on this journey and help you find strength, hope, and peace.

The journey of life often takes twists and turns. At times, our physical and mental capabilities can be stretched to capacity. Childhood trauma continues to impact today’s relationships, often in negative ways. Adversity and life transitions can negatively impact self-worth and motivation. It takes immense courage to seek support and embrace change. Therapy can be extremely beneficial to those who are seeking to create positive change and experience growth within their lives and relationships.

In my way of working with you, I lay my personal issues aside for our time together and give myself plenty of internal space to resonate with you on a gut level. As I hear your story in words I also hear it in feelings. A good therapist puts these two narratives together, the spoken one and the emotional one, in getting to an accurate understanding of you. When I merge this understanding with my training in psychology, which is extensive, I'm able to reflect purposefully with you about what might be wrong; about "how" you're hurting.

Grief and loss presents itself in a basket of multifactorial components. Grief tugs at our hearts and minds through a significant loss or conflict. I have a strong passion for helping people who are struggling with grief from the death of a loved one, trauma, relationship issues, blended families, career issues, chronic illness, or life’s trials and tribulations. Believe it or not, we can even have grief from lack of boundaries and people pleasing. In a world where we tend to avoid grief and loss in hope it will simply disappear, we may find it creeping back in. This can be intentional or unintentional. I often hear “I feel stuck”.

I understand the difficulty of admitting the need for help and finding a person that is worthy of your trust. I hold my client's trust as sacred and consider it an honor each time I am invited into their life stories. I believe a good counseling service is one where the client has a sense of being in the "drivers seat" throughout the process. This approach allows people to have a strong sense of ownership of their personal growth that empowers them for future life challenges.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists

How does solution-focused therapy work?

The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.

Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?

Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.

How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?

Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.

Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?

Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
