✨ Led by Mattie Brown, Masters Level Therapist

I’m a queer, polyamorous mom and therapist who believes that healing happens through connection. I focus on working with individuals and relationships navigating complex trauma, attachment wounds, and non-traditional relationship structures, including polyamory and open relationships.

My clinical approach integrates deep emotional work, somatic awareness, and a social justice lens. Whether I’m supporting someone exploring their identity, rebuilding trust, or seeking more fulfilling relationships, I aim to create a space where all parts of you are welcome.

I work with people across the lifespan, including those facing relational trauma, religious harm, neurodivergence, and life transitions. My work is LGBTQ+ affirming, culturally inclusive, and grounded in the belief that everyone deserves a space to feel seen and celebrated.
