Brooke is great! We hit it off right from the beginning. I don’t feel like “just a client” and therapy doesn’t feel like a chore with her. It’s something I look forward to now!

As a licensed therapist in Georgia and Massachusetts, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop self-compassion, improve communication skills, and overcome challenges related to anxiety, grief, and life transitions.
I'm particularly passionate about working with individuals exploring identity, sexuality, and personal growth. My therapeutic practice creates a supportive environment where clients can address social anxiety, isolation, and self-esteem concerns with compassion and understanding.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I help clients develop resilient coping strategies, process difficult emotions, and rediscover their sense of purpose. Whether you're experiencing mood challenges, relationship difficulties, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.
My work honors the unique experiences of each individual, with a special focus on supporting LGBTQ+ communities and those navigating significant life changes. Together, we'll create a collaborative path toward healing and personal empowerment.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She's amazing and I want too write more but I'm at work. More to come :)
Wonderful she listened was attentive to my concerns
I find Brooke to be very easy to talk to . She is empathetic and very helpful. She is casual and professional. She makes you feel seen and heard and really that is what we are looking for someone to see and hear us.
Brooke is amazing and does her best to get back to me. We just met but I can already see a long time relationship with her as my therapist. I am very greatful for her being here for me during a hard time in my life.
While working on yourself can feel scary and hard, Brooke makes it easy. I feel heard and equipped to continue working towards my goals. Thanks, Brooke!
