Meet Micah Brown, LMFT

A young man with dark skin, glasses, a beard, and a fade hairstyle with natural hair on top, smiling and crossing his arms. He is wearing a light pink button-up shirt, a black smartwatch, and blue jeans. The background is black.

Hi, I’m Micah.

I've always been the person people come to — the listener, the one who helps people see things clearly and figure out what to do next. Eventually I turned that into a career, because I believe everyone deserves to be witnessed.

I think of myself as a disruptor of cycles. A lot of my work is helping clients notice the patterns that keep them stuck — in their relationships, in their self-talk, in the stories they've been told about who they're allowed to be — and helping them find a new way forward.

Being invited into someone's life at this level, in the good moments and the hard ones, isn't something I take lightly. Your lived experience matters, and I’m here to listen and provide help where I can.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, and video games. My partner and I enjoy a cozy life in Indianapolis with our three dogs: Ember, Ziggy, and Zelda.

Equip Clients with Tools

I'm not a "just nod and listen" therapist. I want you to leave every session with something practical — a tool, a shift in perspective, a next step.

Speak Honestly

I'm gentle, but I'll call you out when it matters. I'll be insightful and direct, because real growth usually requires someone willing to tell you the truth.

Sit With You in Discomfort

I work best with people who are ready to sit with discomfort in order to change. A healthy, happy life isn’t about avoiding discomfort.

A Note on Identity & Allyship

I'm a cisgender, heterosexual man, and I've built my practice around serving people whose identities and relationships don't always get space in traditional therapy — including LGBTQ+ folks, people of color, people who are kink-identified, and people practicing non-monogamy. I've served as Treasurer for the Queer and Trans Advocacy Network since January 2020.

A large portion of the people I work with in my practice identify as queer or trans. Nearly 39% of the folks I’ve worked with from 2024 to 2026 identify as LGBTQ+. I ask myself regularly how I can keep showing up well for the people I work with — and I mean it when I say you shouldn't have to educate me on your own identity or lived experience.

If you want to talk more about this before booking, I'm happy to discuss it in a free consultation or over email.
