More about Brooks

I start with the assumption that every human being has a purpose and the ability to be a productive member of society. I believe that we all have an optimal self and that it is helpful to have someone act as a mirror and a support to keep moving toward that optimal self. I primarily utilize the practice of neuropsychotherapy, although this approach leaves room for most other theories under its umbrella. My approach often employs the theory and techniques of Person-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral, Adlerian, and Existential therapies. I believe in a healthy mind, body, and soul, and in that vein, I provide counseling in spiritual matters tailored to each client’s personal beliefs. I am proud of my formal education, and I obviously could not do this work without it. However, the key to my ability to help others has always been the education I’ve garnered through my own life experiences. I draw on both of these influences as appropriate.

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.

We get along and help solve the issues in my life
He listens, gives good advice and makes me feel better after every session.
Easy to talk with and gives good feedback
Brooks has gone above and beyond in his help for me and my mental health. I would Recommend him to anyone who is seeking to sincerely better themselves, and not someone who is looking for answers that they want to hear, rather than the truth. Always on time and always honest
Brooks is very personable and has made the therapy process seamless. Looking forward to my next session with him.
Brooks has been amazing with taking time to understand where I’m at and helping me work through hurdles I’ve faced so that I can make better decisions and get to where I want to be. He has been extremely patient and very understanding. I highly recommend Brooks to anyone looking to make changes.
Brooks is one of the rare angels in the mental health industry.
Kind, understanding and non judgmental. Brooks is really a good therapist.
Brooks has been there when I needed to talk to him. Has given me some practical advice so far.

Brooks did an outstanding job helping me out with my issue. He listened, he advised and he made sure I was well taken care of. I highly recommend him and will come back if I need to get any additional help. Thank you Brooks for your help!
Fantastic to partner with in helping me for my next chapter.
Brooks is very down to earth! He can work with you using different frameworks and is very compelling in his recommendations. He studiously remembers everything one has to say and incorporates those stories into future dialogue. I can't recommend him enough!
Brooks has a great approach and is very easy to talk to.
This being my first time speaking with a therapist, Brooks has been great. He really has really put things in a different perspective for me to analyze differently and it really helped me understand many of my own actions, thoughts, and ideas I which was very confused about. He is a great listener and makes you feel very welcome to share things in a nonjudgmental way. 10/10 would recommend. He has studied his work and it shows. :) Thank you Brooks
Every time I talk to Brooks I feel like I’m talking to a friend that cares and respects me. I have tried therapy previously and would always feel so heavy after each session and that is not the case this time. He has helped me see what good things I bring to the table and has helped me accept myself as I am. Always keeping an upbeat attitude and showing compassion as well through any situation that I share with him.
Brooks Johnson is a great counselor. He listens, allows you to vent, gives you insight on a different perspective, gives you coping skills, and more. I actually look forward to my weekly session instead of fear it like I used to.
