Brian Flynn, LCSW
About me
I am a clinical social worker with 20 years of post -graduate experience helping clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, living with grief and loss, coping with trauma, crisis and disasters, issues facing first responders and challenges relating to LGBTQ- identifying individuals and couples.
When working with clients, I take a solution-focused, trauma-informed and strengths-based approach. Everyone deserves to be listened to, treated with respect and provided with opportunities to live a meaningful, joyful and productive life.
I’d like to learn more about you and hear from you about what you would like to get out of our work together. We can find a time for us to meet and start talking more about your hopes and goals - and how we can work together to make those hopes a reality.
I look forward to talking with you more.

Brian is great. He’s been able to dig into things and get me to places other therapists have not been able to. He’s able to help me see things from a different perspective and I find our sessions extremely valuable
