Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Brooke uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and shift emotional patterns that affect relationships and self-understanding. EFT work focuses on naming feelings and changing how people respond to them, which can help with intimacy-related issues, grief, and attachment concerns.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify values and learn small steps to act on those values even when feelings are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors that produce better outcomes for mood and anxiety problems.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Brooke will talk with each person about goals, life circumstances, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan over time based on what helps.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let clients use visual cues and longer conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging work well for shorter check-ins, skill practice between sessions, or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options make therapy more flexible for work schedules, caregiving, or busy days.
