Jessa Brown
Grief doesn't follow a timeline. Neither does the therapy that helps.
MS, LLPC · Limited Licensed Professional Counselor · Michigan
I offer online counseling across Michigan for grief, cancer-related stress, military and veteran concerns, trauma and relationships. I work collaboratively with individuals, teens, couples and families, making room for difficult experiences without asking you to hurry through them.
I accept BCBS, Blue Care Network (BCN), Aetna and Priority Health, with private pay also available. Appointments are by telehealth; we’ll confirm your specific plan, availability and estimated cost before booking.
At a Glance
Cancer diagnosis counseling
A cancer diagnosis doesn't just change your body. It changes your relationship with time, with certainty, with the people around you, and with yourself. Whether you're newly diagnosed, in treatment, in remission, or supporting someone who is — the emotional weight of cancer deserves its own space.
I work with individuals and families navigating every stage of cancer, from the shock of diagnosis through treatment decisions, survivorship, and the grief that threads through all of it. You don't have to be strong here. You just have to show up.
Veteran and military family therapy
Military service leaves marks that don't always show. PTSD, moral injury, the difficulty of reintegration, the strain on families who held everything together during deployment — these are real wounds, and they deserve real clinical attention. Not platitudes. Not "thank you for your service."
I work with veterans, active service members, and their families. I understand the culture well enough to meet you where you are, and I won't ask you to explain things you shouldn't have to explain.
Children, Couples & Families
Since 2016, I have confidently worked with children, parents, and families to foster growth and understanding. Group work is one of my strengths, as I excel at creating an inclusive environment that values all perspectives. I provide online counseling for teens and older adolescents and effectively guide families and couples through transitions. My significant flexibility in scheduling allows me to accommodate multiple clients seamlessly, ensuring that everyone receives the support they deserve.
How I work
I tailor treatment collaboratively, drawing from CBT, DBT, person-centered, and trauma-focused approaches. I also work with teens, couples, and groups. I believe therapy should be shaped around you — not the other way around.
I offer telehealth across the entire state of Michigan, which means you don't need to live near Ann Arbor to work with me. If you're in a rural area, a small town, or anywhere in Michigan where specialized grief and trauma support is hard to find — I can reach you.
Specialized grief and trauma therapy — without the drive.
Anywhere in Michigan
You shouldn't have to travel two hours for a therapist who understands cancer, military trauma, or complicated grief. Statewide telehealth means expert care from wherever you are in Michigan.
