I’m Brooke, here to walk with you on your journey towards healing!
If you’ve found your way here, I’m guessing life feels like a lot right now. Maybe you’ve been carrying more than your share for far too long. Maybe you’re tired of looking like you have it all together when you’re merely just getting by. I’m glad you’re here and looking to get some help.
You’re probably someone who gives your all to everything—your relationships, your career, your interests your responsibilities—but no matter how much you do, it never feels like enough. On the outside, you’re successful, put together, maybe even thriving. But on the inside? There’s that quiet but constant voice saying, “This is all becoming too much, something has to give.” You’ve exhausted the self-help books, podcasts, and coping. Your options seem slim to none.
That’s where I come in.
What It’s Like To Work With Me
Therapy with me is a collaboration. It’s not about me “fixing” you or telling you the magic secret to your life’s problems. It’s about creating a space where you can show up as your real self and start untangling everything that’s been weighing you down.
I bring a mix of curiosity, insight, and practical tools to each session. While healing can be messy and uncomfortable at times, it doesn’t have to be cold or clinical. You’ll find our sessions are a mix of deep work, real talk, and sometimes even a little laughter—because healing is serious work, but it doesn’t always have to feel heavy.
Why I Do This Work
I believe in showing up for the people the world often overlooks—the ones who seem “fine” on the outside but are silently struggling on the inside. The truth is, I’ve been there. I’ve faced my own challenges, and I know how lonely and tiring it can feel. That’s why I’m so passionate about this work.
You deserve more than just surviving each day. You deserve relief and to feel connected back to yourself again. My job is to help you get there.
I’m not here to sugarcoat things or slap a band-aid on deep wounds. I’m here to dig in with you, to ask the hard questions, and to help you uncover the strength and clarity that are already inside you. I’ll guide you through the tough stuff with compassion, warmth, and empathy while empowering you to find that within yourself.
My Journey To Becoming The Therapist I Needed
I don’t just care about your story—I understand it. Before I was a therapist, I was a client. I was “put together” on the outside, but on the inside, I was carrying a weight I couldn’t shake. It wasn’t until I realized without healing, nothing was going to change. My experience with healing inspired me to pursue therapy as a career. Now as a therapist, I strive to help adults process the complexities that have brought disconnection from their true selves. I believe life isn’t just about surviving; it’s about learning to truly live—even when it feels impossible.
My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solutions-Focused Therapy—but it’s also deeply personal and tailored to you. Because no two people are the same, and your therapy should reflect that. We’ll work together at your pace to find what helps you move forward.
When I’m not in the (virtual) therapy room, you can find me trying a new coffee shop, crafting, exercising, enjoying time with my family, or searching for my next book series to read!

How Mensch Came To Be
Mensch Therapy was born during my time abroad in 2017. I got to explore historical landmarks and hear about their impact on humanity which got me thinking… when was the last time I acknowledged my humanity? I was overly worried about chasing “perfection” in life. There was no room for complexities. In today’s world, it’s easy to forget that at our core, we’re all just human—flawed, messy, and beautifully unique. I created Mensch Therapy as a space where you can show up as your whole, imperfect self and explore without judgment. Here, your humanity is seen and respected. The work we do is grounded in evidence-based care, delivered in a way that’s real, engaging, and focused on your strengths.
Think We’d Be A Good Fit?
Seeking help is brave and also nerve-racking in the same breath. What if it doesn’t help? What if it’s a waste of time and money?
I understand your caution, seeking help is a big step! But what if it gives you a second to take care of you? What if it gives you the space to focus on your healing? What if it allows you to have more capacity for yourself and others? You deserve to feel supported. You deserve relief. You deserve to be connected to yourself. And most importantly, you deserve a life that feels authentically yours.
