I work with Adults who have struggled with trauma, anxiety, depression, life stressors, and self-esteem issues. I believe that we all have the ability to change. We just need the right tools to do so. My goal is to help you identify the areas in your life that prolong these struggles. Then, equip yourself with the lifelong tools that aid you in identifying and overcoming problematic thinking, a rigid belief system that could be holding you back, and understanding your emotions and how they affect everything around you.

Hello! My name is Brooke. Are you struggling with your child’s behavior at home or school? Feeling depressed, anxious, or simply lost in life? Have you recently experienced any big changes? Has a traumatic experience occurred in you or your child’s life and you don’t know how to go back to normalcy? Do you think you may be in a abusive or narcissistic relationship? Do you have a child with an intellectual disability that is struggling with emotional/behavioral issues? If any of these scenarios connected with you, I would love to help you not only gain the skills you need to heal and cope through your journey, but to also flourish!

I love working with individuals that wish to take action to improve themselves. Regardless of their mental health concerns or the catalyst that led to change. If you are feeling lost or unsure where to go, having a guide can help with that. If you are feeling anxious, worried, or feel as though you need to do some general processing, you don’t have to do it alone. Once we work through whatever is holding you down, you may be surprised with how free you will feel.

We all need to explore our fears, insecurities and those places in your life of which you are not proud. My wish is to provide a safe place to allow my clients to explore those vulnerable places and allow healing. I chose to be a therapist to help clients understand that they are valued, and they can accept themselves, flaws and all. Our collaborative efforts will establish a strong therapeutic relationship focusing on goals to create healing. I am transparent in the active healing research-based approach we will use in sessions. I want to empower clients to increase coping skills as well as engage in healthy relationships.

Many of my clients' goals involve managing anxiety, depression, identity development, and living authentically so that they can lead happier and healthier lives, whatever that may look like for them.
My approach to therapy is collaborative and transparent. I use the skills and experiences I've gained to help clients achieve their own goals. Instead of curing mental health I believe in helping people understand and manage their issues in sustainable ways. Since I use a lot of metaphors in therapy, the one I use to illustrate and describe my therapeutic process is likening it to a home improvement. My job is to help clients explore and find the right tools for their unique improvements and provide guidance so clients have support while making lasting changes they want in their life. The toolbox can then be used outside of therapy.

In the past 26 years, I have worked with all age groups but specialize in anxiety, depressive, and trauma disorders and use various therapy techniques depending on our discussions and your desired goals.
We can often feel controlled by our emotions, struggling to think clearly, and simply reacting, rather than directing our own life path. It can feel like a tornado of thoughts quickly swirling, leaving us feeling tense and discouraged that life could look any different. We usually just want everything to slow down and feel more at peace. The goal is to provide you with the tools for this to happen so you can move forward with confidence to live a more positive and balanced life.

Anxiety Therapists
What are the most common treatments for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
