Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Brooke often guides clients in examining how daily routines, work demands, and relationships shape mood and behavior. That includes parenting strains, caregiving fatigue, and the impact of trauma or long-term stress.
She helps people break problems into manageable steps and track progress over time. Sessions are practical and conversational. Expect clear goals, homework you can use between meetings, and a focus on what works for your schedule.
Brooke aims to make therapy feel useful from the first few sessions. She also draws on motivational interviewing and narrative therapy when exploring motivation and personal stories. These tools help people reframe their experience and find reasons to try new approaches.
Brooke tailors methods to each person's needs and pace.
How Brooke's approaches fit online care
Brooke uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and shape sessions around each person's priorities. This approach focuses on understanding a person's values and goals and helps build trust and clarity about next steps.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people test unhelpful thinking and try small behavioral experiments that reduce anxiety or lift mood.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Brooke will work with clients to decide which methods fit best based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. It is common to blend techniques rather than stick to one model.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different rhythms of life. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation for deeper work. Phone sessions and live chat can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or brief problem solving between longer sessions.
These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity when life changes, and practice new skills in real time with guidance from a licensed professional.
