Hello, I am Patricia Brown MSW, CSW. I started working in Mental Health in 2001. I received a bachelor’s degree in human services and counseling from Lindsey Wilson College in 2003. I graduated from Campbellsville University’s Master of Social Work program. I have worked in Mental Health with children, adolescents, adults, couples, groups, parents, under 21 years of age D.U.I. offenders, and probation and parole clients.
In conjunction with the Mental Health field, I have worked in the Lake Cumberland Public Health Field for over 15 years. In Public Health, I served as a Health Educator III, Early Childhood Trainer, and Public Health H.A.N.D.S Specialist for parents. In the Public Health Field, I developed and advocated for policy changes in the community and facilitated community education groups. I was a trainer/facilitator for chronic disease management and smoking cessation programs. I developed coalitions and am still active in collations.
The area of focus for me is working with adults. I am trained in Gottman Couple’s Therapy Levels 1 & 2 and pursuing certification. The therapy benefits of the Gottman Method for couples are it enhances communication, intimacy, respect, problem-solving, empathy, and understanding of your partner.
If you are looking for support with managing a chronic disease, anger issues, parenting, or wanting to become a nonsmoker, I would enjoy being a support. I have facilitated groups on Smoking Cessation (Freedom from Smoking, Cooper Clayton), Chronic Disease Management, PACE Arthritis Groups, Parenting classes, and Prime for Life for under 21 years.
I am an Early Childhood Trainer in Kentucky, specializing in behavioral health and offering continuing education units. I would enjoy working with you if you are interested in continuing education units in Early Childhood.
Life is challenging at times; support is just seconds away. I look forward to working with you in individual, couples, or group counseling. Schedule an appointment today!
