Online support
Online approaches that meet you where you are
Brooke often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and act on their values. CBT is practical and skill-focused, useful for anxiety, depression, and behavior change. ACT helps people accept difficult feelings while building a life guided by personal values, which can be helpful for chronic stress and avoidance.She also uses Attachment-Based ideas when relationship patterns or early bonds affect current issues. That approach looks at how connection and trust developed and guides work to form healthier ways of relating. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a team effort: the therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and adjust methods as needed.
Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video allows face-to-face conversation for skill practice, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, short check-ins work well over text, and live chat fits those who prefer typing. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible while keeping the focus on practical progress and steady support.
