I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Mental Health Therapist for over 20 years. I earned my masters in social work at the University of Nebraska at Omaha in 2002. Since I live in a rural area with little access to mental health services; I have had the opportunity to work with all populations. I have been the most effective in assisting those who experience depression, anxiety (including related diagnoses like OCD and sleep disorders) , and relationship problems (unhealthy and abusive relationships, parenting, and couples counseling). I have worked in all levels of care from psychiatric inpatient, to group homes, crisis centers, and outpatient counseling. A large portion of my work has been in the child welfare system and juvenile system. I have worked with abused and neglected children as well as their parents. I have many military veterans in my life. My family has navigated the VA disability process and I have many ideas to share in order to help clients involved with the VA. I practice through the lens of trauma-informed care and consider the whole person; not just individual symptoms. My approach is eclectic and client-driven. I will assist you in formulating a treatment plan that will be ever adapting to your current needs. My friends describe me as "The most approachable person in the room." I know how hard is it to seek support and I never make people feel judged or minimize their experiences. Helping people help themselves is my passion. I like the Better Help platform because people can often feel stuck and unable to take the multiple steps needed to seek counseling in a traditional office setting. Online counseling removes many of the barriers that keep people from seeking support. I have had anxious clients who started out with messaging and slowly moved to phone and video as they felt more comfortable. I have been with Better Help for 4 years. I started 1/2020 as the pandemic was starting up and I had the opportunity to work with clients all over the world and see how they were being affected by the illness and local rules and regulations meant to mitigate the spread. I still have three of those clients who started in 2020. It has been very nice to see their progress over a long period of time. I am looking forward to assisting you in meeting your potential and helping improve your daily quality of life! You have taken the first step. Let's get started.

Hello, my name Chloe Brown. I am Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC). I am a New York native but spent the majority of my life growing up in California. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from California. State University Long Beach and a Master of Science degree in Clinical Professional Counseling with an emphasis on addiction studies at UNLV. I have been practicing professionally in psychotherapy for the last 10 years and worked extensively with individuals who have experienced addiction, poverty and emotional abuse. I enjoy supporting individuals who have experienced narcissistic abuse and wish to explore themselves at new depths, building self-awareness to support making the changes they wish to achieve. My approach includes helping individuals discover untapped power sources within themselves, build feelings of connection to the universe, and discover the courage they need to improve their life satisfaction. Miracles happen every day, and miracles are waiting for you. Clients that tend to match well with me are those seeking to empower their sources of strength and motivation to align with the reality of their dreams. Perhaps you feel like you were dealt a bad hand in life and feel defeated; your dreams coming true don't have to remain a fantasy forever. Perhaps you're having trouble navigating your personal relationships, or you feel chaos building in your life. Perhaps you feel confused by your thoughts, feelings or behaviors and want to get to know yourself better. I am currently in the process in working towards my certification as Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician; and I have personal passions for metaphysical healing, stand-up comedy and dream analysis.

I have often counseled people who work in the entertainment, gaming, and hospitality sectors. The way of life in Nevada is different from most of the other states, and I understand the unique challenges that face Nevadans. I also specialize in International Psychology, and have worked with people around the world including Europe, Eastern Europe, Central America, South America, Canada, United Arab Emeriates, Australia, and other locations including areas of ongoing conflict. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

Have you been overwhelmed with anxiety, feeling down, lacking motivation or self-confidence? Many of my clients find themselves on edge, irritable, at the end of their rope. Often, they struggle to see their own worth, burdened with negative core beliefs and memories of their past. They’ve felt like they haven’t had control in their life for far too long. They’re exhausted, burnt out, and don’t know where else to turn. They are humans having human reactions to this wild ride called life. My clients are adults (18+) who thrive with online therapy. They are looking for help with their problems and want to see someone from the comfort of their own homes. Because Capital City Counseling is fully telehealth, I am licensed and able to serve individuals living in the states of Louisiana, Nevada, or Utah. My professional experience in the field of mental health has afforded me an opportunity to impact hundreds of lives. This experience has also impacted yours truly (me). I am experienced and comfortable with a broad range of issues including depression, anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, family conflict, addiction, self-esteem, chronic relapse, traumatic brain injury, anger management, gambling, parenting, infidelity, ADHD, sexual abuse, domestic violence, self-harming, oppositional defiance, coping skills, impulsivity, spirituality, bipolar disorder, suicidal ideation, personality disorders, dual diagnosis, emotional disturbance, relationship issues, divorce behavioral issues, codependency, racial identity, trauma and PTSD, and stress. I specialize in treating maternal and postpartum mental health issues, trauma recovery, and the unique issues marginalized individuals and individuals within the BIPOC communities face. I believe in the inherent ability of everyone to heal and grow when provided the appropriate opportunity. My approach is honoring, kind, and forthright to enable you to feel safe, not judged, and make the progress you desire on your path to enhanced well-being. My strengths lie in helping you negotiate and sort through the complicated choices, transitions & challenges life presents. You’ve already taken that first step, and I’m proud of you. I hold space for each client no matter their background, gender, size, age, race, religion, income, career, culture, sexual orientation, abilities, or disabilities. If you are ready to heal what has held you back, process what you've been avoiding, and resolve the issues that life has thrown your way; then, I am ready to walk beside and guide you on your journey. I provide a non-judgmental, safe, and supportive setting in which to move forward. Encouraging you to explore the internal landscape of your own life, holding you accountable in our work together, and holding space for you to experience your emotions.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Some commonly asked questions can be found below.

How much does a therapist cost?

Mental health professionals can differ in price. Forbes found that the average cost of in-person therapy in the US is around $100 to $200 per hour. Pricing can also vary based on your location. 

BetterHelp offers payment plans of $60 to $90 per session, charged monthly in a lump sum. You can also take advantage of this pricing on one of BetterHelp's sister platforms, like ReGain for couples or TeenCounseling for teens aged 13 to 19.

Many therapists may be upfront about their pricing and whether or not they take health insurance from the beginning. Additionally, some in your area may offer a sliding scale plan to allow those with lower incomes to pay less for therapy. However, services online can often save individuals a few hundred dollars per month.

How do I know if I should get a therapist?

Mental health services and mental health providers may help you navigate various concerns. You do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy; You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general advice. A counselor may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Mental health issues don't always present as a crisis. Many professionals provide talk therapy and support for life transitions, skills learning, relationship problems, or life coaching. Online therapy sessions in Nevada can allow clients seeking therapy to experience professional help through video, phone, or live chat sessions without commuting to an office.

Does insurance cover therapy?

Different counseling services can vary in cost. Therapists must apply to accept insurance through insurance companies, which may take time and money, so not every therapist offers services through insurance. If you cannot find a therapist that accepts your plan, BetterHelp may be cheaper than visiting an in-person therapist.

Is online therapy safe?

Online therapy through BetterHelp and its sister platforms is safe. Therapists are licensed, experienced, and vetted before being contracted with the platform. If you experience any concerns with your therapist, you change your counselor through the platform or app at any time.
