Dr. Jeff Brown is a Licensed & Ordained Minister with more than 35 years of experience providing Christian counseling for individuals and couples. He earned his Doctor of Ministry from Grace Theological Seminary in 2022 and has served in pastoral ministry for over 40 years, including leadership as Senior Pastor of two churches. His doctoral work focused on neuroscience, counseling, and emotional intelligence—areas that work together to provide practical tools for building emotionally healthy marriages. Since 2022, he has also worked with Restore Addiction Recovery, supporting men pursuing freedom from addiction.
Dr. Jeff specializes in marriage counseling, addiction recovery, and emotional intelligence, helping clients understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and relational patterns. He has extensive experience guiding individuals and couples through challenges such as drug and alcohol addiction, pornography addiction, anger, anxiety, depression, and relationship conflict.
Passionate about restoration, Jeff believes healing and growth are always possible. Married to his wife Joyce for 41 years, he brings both professional expertise and personal experience to strengthening marriages and restoring hope.
In his spare time, Jeff and his wife enjoy visiting their two children, four grandchildren, and two granddogs. Together, they love visiting the ocean, hiking in the mountains, hosting family game nights, and drinking delicious coffee.
