Background and approach

Sessions are geared toward everyday problems like parenting strain, career stress, and coping with major life changes. Brooke also addresses more specific issues such as blended family challenges, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, impulse control, and forgiveness work. She supports people dealing with trauma, abuse, and intimacy-related struggles using trauma-aware methods.

Her goal is to help clients build practical coping skills and clearer goals for the future. Her background includes work in a range of mental health settings where she supported people with mood disorders and trauma-related concerns. She draws on that hands-on experience to match strategies to each person’s situation.

Brooke encourages a collaborative approach where the client’s priorities guide the pace of work. Sessions are offered in English and delivered remotely by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows the platform process for matching and booking.

How Brooke’s Methods Translate to Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small committed actions even when feelings are hard. It focuses on what matters and builds simple daily habits to move toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete skills for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and changing unhelpful patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that can help reduce the intensity of distressing memories by using guided bilateral stimulation with a therapist’s support.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brooke will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their needs and goals. She reviews options, tries techniques, and adjusts the plan based on what the person finds most helpful and practical.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or when lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins and written homework or coaching between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, parenting, or health commitments.
