Betsy Brown (she/her)

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who graduated from Columbia University School of Social Work. I work as a clinician at the Center For Anxiety's Brooklyn office and as a study therapist in the Solomonov Lab at Weill Cornell Medical Center.

I specialize in anxiety, mood disorders, maternal mental health, and supporting clients navigating life transitions, challenging relationships, or questions around identity. I have particular expertise in women’s mental health. My approach is relational, humanistic, and compassionate. I strive to create a collaborative, safe, and inclusive environment rooted in a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive framework. I use an eclectic treatment style, tailoring therapeutic modalities to each client’s unique needs. I also have experience with acute mental illnesses in the hospital setting; I completed an internship at Payne Whitney's Adult Partial Hospitalization Program and went on to do psychiatric social work at Payne Whitney's Comprehensive Psychiatric Emergency Program, where I worked in both the ER and Mobile Crisis unit.

I am a former high school special education teacher, so have several years of experience working with young adults who are differently abled (ADHD, general learning disability, autism spectrum disorder, ID/DD).

I live in Brooklyn with my husband and two sons.
