About

Does your child have social and emotional challenges  that impact their academic performance and the ability to build healthy relationships?  Do they have difficulty paying attention, difficulty cooperating with peers and adults, and unable to control their feelings?  At a Place to Grow Counseling we are here to serve you. My name is Melissa Brown and I am a licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) , Registered Play Therapist (RPT), and a Certified Anger Management Specialist (CAMS II). My experience includes working in various settings: Outpatient, School-Based, Crisis Stabilization, and Community Mental Health Agencies.  I utilize a variety of techniques in my work with children, such as Play Therapy, Crisis Intervention, Trauma Recovery, Behavior Management, and other Creative and Expressive Approaches that foster resiliency and growth. **Credentials & Experience:** I have over 13 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, through challenging emotional experiences as a Professional Counselor in Georgia and the Virgin Islands and hold additional certifications as a Professional Counselor Supervisor, Registered Play Therapist Supervisor.
