About Brooke
Brooke Ayoub is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical support for people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and life changes. Brooke keeps language simple and direct so parents and individuals can quickly understand how she works.
She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used to clarify values and take actions that matter.
Background and approach
Brooke also uses client-centered listening to make space for each person's experience. Brooke has helped people facing trauma, intimate relationship challenges, parenting stress, career concerns, and mood disorders. Her background includes supporting people through blended family issues, caregiving strain, chronic illness, and transitions like separation or midlife questions.
She aims to help clients build coping skills and practical plans rather than offering vague promises. Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-oriented. Brooke works at a pace the client prefers, combining short skills practice with deeper conversations about meaning and values.
She encourages homework and small experiments that fit real life. Brooke believes clients are the experts on their own lives. She provides steady guidance, reflection, and tools to try between sessions so people can make clearer choices and feel more able to handle daily challenges.
How Brooke Uses Therapy Methods Online
Brooke often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thinking patterns that increase worry or low mood, and then try concrete behavior changes to reduce those patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is also used to clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values, even when feelings are difficult.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brooke will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. She treats the choice of approach as a collaboration and adjusts techniques based on how a person responds in sessions.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people talk face-to-face for deeper conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick skills coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and keep progress moving forward.
