About Lillian

Lillian Ojetta Brown is a Licensed Master Social Worker with 30 years of clinical experience in Michigan. She focuses on helping people who are coping with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and concerns related to sexuality and self-worth. Her approach is grounded in steady support and practical steps that people can use between sessions.

Clients can expect clear, simple conversations about what matters most to them. Lillian listens for patterns that cause distress and helps people try small changes to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She also offers coaching-style guidance for career questions and life transitions.

Her work often addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues alongside longer-standing family of origin concerns. She supports those facing caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, and the emotional effects of aging. Lillian also helps people process trauma, prejudice and discrimination, and experiences tied to HIV and sexuality.

Over three decades she has helped people manage sleeping problems, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, and feelings of isolation. Sessions blend emotional support with practical tools for coping, communication, and self-care. She works with people who identify as LGBT and those exploring sexuality and self-love.

Lillian provides services in English and accepts clients inside and outside the United States. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules and needs. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that works for them.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Many clients benefit from straightforward, evidence-based methods that focus on present challenges and teach coping skills. Problem-focused techniques help people identify patterns that worsen anxiety or depression and try specific, manageable changes to reduce distress. These methods are useful for sleep problems, stress, and day-to-day symptoms.

Supportive coaching-style work complements skill-based methods by focusing on goals like career changes, parenting strain, or rebuilding after loss. This approach blends practical guidance with listening to help people make steady progress toward their aims.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, preferences, and goals, then try methods that fit. Adjustments are made over time so the plan stays useful and relevant to the person's life.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video helps maintain a face-to-face feel for in-depth work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging lets people check in between appointments. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
