RELATIONSHIPS….They pretty much run the world, direct your life, and move your heart. Your relationships, especially with your partner, will greatly improve when you learn to communicate better, and begin using some very effective methods to improve your mood, draw more success, and find more peace. COMMUNICATION….How well you communicate with your partner and other people directly determines the quality of your relationships. How well you communicate with yourself—by self-talk, clear thinking, and effective organization—also determines your relationship quality, and just about everything else.

Hello! My name is Dr. Chelece-Atavia Brown, a Pre-Licensed Social Worker (LSW) for New Jersey and a certified facilitator in Teen Mental Health First Aid by the National Council of Well-Being. I have experience in providing therapeutic services for children, teens, adults, couples, and groups. I assist high-achieving Black women and men with navigating life stressors. I'm passionate about bridging the gap between faith and mental health to increase an individual's quality of life.

Welcome to my profile. Perhaps you are here because you are searching to change what has been bothering you in your life or to find solutions or new directions. You may also be wondering how I would be able to help and what approach I may take? After getting to know and understand your situation, my approach is to talk with you in ways that open space for the discovery and exploration of possible solutions that have worked for you in the past or could work for you in the future. You may see me individually, or with your consent, you may involve others to participate in a collaborative process.

I have often had the best success with clients seeking a symptom relief or crisis resolution, in combination with a desire to change lifestyles. Personal growth is more than learning new coping skills, requiring a commitment to self exploration and changing orientations. Breaking old patterns of thought and behavior can be accomplished via changing what we pay attention to,how we treat ourselves and others and broadening our view of the world. I focus on the life directions, passions and strengths of people. I am informed by the belief that we are all unique beings.

Has a cancer diagnosis turned your life upside down? Is cancer all you think about? Hearing those three words “you have cancer” is a gut punch that is difficult to process. Thoughts of scans, testing, treatment, and side effects can become overwhelming. Some people become paralyzed by fear and struggle to experience joy. Even after treatment is over, quality of life can be compromised. Are you living with fear of recurrence? Do you have survivors’ guilt? Do you feel like you should be now living a life filled with gratitude, but instead feel lost? Are you wondering what is that "new normal" they talk about? Do you just feel stuck?

I am passionate about helping people and I sincerely believe that good counseling will transform lives. I am fully committed to providing high quality mental health services.

I have a specialty in life coaching. This can include transitions, performance, work-life balance, mentoring, helping the techs improve their people skills, and a favorite, "say what you mean mean what you say" good old communication issues. And of course, the heart of it all, relationship issues. Coaching is often short term, goal focused, and action oriented on your part. Your success will depend on your willingness to define, take risks, and try new approaches. Like any human endeavor, life coaching can involve feelings of distress and frustration that accompany the process of change. Your life is up to you, you define your success.
