Brooke is a very conscientious and compassionate counselor. It is very easy for me to talk things openly with her and she asks me pertinent questions that help me dive deeper into my own consciousness and reasonings. I highly recommend her as a counselor and value her input in my exploration of self.

More about Brooke
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am an LCSW with experience working with parents for the past ten years in Hawaii. I have served families and individuals in Hawaii as a Social Worker, Therapist, and parent educator. I am passionate about serving women during the perinatal period, this includes trying to conceive, pregnancy, and the year after birth. I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Counselor and love supporting women during their journeys as mothers during any stage. I am a doula so I bring extensive knowledge of pregnancy and birth preparation with a special interest in healing birth trauma.
I am experienced in working with people with chronic medical conditions, as well as substance abuse recovery.
My treatment approach is always trauma informed, a cognitive behavioral therapy model, with a client driven treatment style. I offer a safe place to build a healthy therapeutic relationship, learn tools to enhance daily functioning, and heal and grow.
I am a mother of two boys living on a farm on the windward side of Oahu.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
