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.

Dr.Brooks is always kind and allows me to speak my mind. She will bring up a thing or two and will let me know when we will be discussing the things she didn’t explain in the moment. She is very helpful with not shoving jesus or the bible down my throat.

She’s awesome

Dr. Brooks is great, personable, but gets to the point. She has given me strategies for dealing with anxiety that have worked. Highly recommend.

Dr. Brooks is compassionate and understanding. I can tell she truly cares about me and my growth. I appreciate her expertise and feel safe showing up unfiltered. Thank you.

Very Understanding, Very Helpful and very very good with communication

Dr Brooks really understood me and what I needed as I navigated a divorce. She gave me great insights, actionable tools, challenged me when needed, and loads of support. I am so very grateful for her work!

Dr. Brooks brings a lot of experience to the table and professionalism to each session. She is an good listener who offers thoughtful, practical advice. Her ability to shed light on issues in a clear and rational way makes for a supportive and productive environment. I would highly recommend Dr. Brooks to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and compassionate therapist.

I see very meaningful and tangible results after taking therapy with Dr. Brooks. She’s a very empathetic listener and extremely supportive and insightful. Her exercises and advice have been extremely helpful to me.

Dr. Brooks was very quick to zero in on our family communications issues and propose a very practical plan for us to adopt. She made us feel very comfortable in talking about our issues and in working on potential solutions.

First therapist I feel extremely comfortable speaking with after attempting to do so with 4 prior therapists. This is my first time in therapy at the age of 50 & I was about to quit & thought it just wasn’t for me. That wasn’t the case, I just didn’t meet the right one for me until Dr. Brooks. I’m glad I didn’t give up and I truly look fwd to our future sessions. After only two sessions so far I feel like a weight has been lifted off of me and I feel heard and understood for the first time in my life. It’s a good feeling. I am excited to see & feel what it’s like after a few more sessions
