My Story

During my time in graduate school, I had the opportunity to take specialized classes related to complex trauma. I learned how to work with individuals using evidence based research to intervene with children and adolescents and their care givers addressing the whole family system. I use tools to help provide coping skills, address attachment issues, and increase emotional regulation. 

How I work

I believe every story is unique and asks me to be present with each individual and family in front of me. With this belief, I am able to show up and offer both direct and empathetic communication as needed. Something that is unique to me, is I enjoy using illustrations from nature. When thinking about anxiety, change, and grief, I like to remind people that no feeling is final and come and go like the waves. I love working in Norcross because the historic downtown offers many opportunities for walks and are quickly accessible to beautiful parks. Utilizing these outdoor spaces, I am able to put into motion these feelings and allowing my client to ride the waves and leave feeling more grounded than when they came. I believe that you are the keeper of your own story, the expert on your child and family. In our time together, I get to learn your story, provide strategic tools to help you meet your personalized goals. I am grateful to be a piece in the puzzle for your healing journey. 

About Brooke

My self-care practices consist of playing outdoor sports, going on long runs, calling a friend, reading a historical fiction novel, singing in the car, eating a good meal, and sleeping a whole 8 hours. The easiest way to fill my cup is mainly through close friends and family. My greatest interest and habit is being in community with my church. I found myself more grounded and known after leaving small groups, walks, and Sunday church more than any other place. I believe that habits created here are foundational for myself to keep the rhythms and Health, that I believe in so strongly intact. The vulnerability and kindness that I found in this interest helps me to enhance my therapy and make it a safe and authentic space. Lastly, being outside encompasses, a lot of my interests. The seasons remind me of the growth and pruning that we have in ourselves when in nature, I find myself at rest.

Brooke’s session fee is $100 per 50-minute session.
