Brooke Wexler, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Brooke!

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist helping individuals navigate anxiety, trauma, and major life changes. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in mindfulness, CBT, and psychodynamic principles. I offer a safe space to explore your experiences, build resilience, and move toward lasting healing.

My focus

I work best with individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, and life transitions who are ready to explore their inner world and build healthier ways of coping. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or struggling to feel grounded, I'm here to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and move toward lasting change.

My approach

My therapeutic style is empathetic, collaborative, and rooted in curiosity and care. I adapt my approach to fit your needs, using tools from CBT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic therapy to help uncover patterns, process emotions, and support change. I hold space with intention and respect, encouraging you to show up fully and move toward self-trust.

My communication style

My communication style is compassionate, explorative, and down-to-earth. I create a space where you feel safe to be yourself—where humor, honesty, and curiosity are always welcome. I'm an engaged listener and an active participant, offering gentle reflections, thoughtful questions, and support that meets you where you are.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for mindfulness, mental well-being, and meaningful connection inspired my transition into psychology. I've worked in acute care, residential treatment with youth, and as a primary therapist supporting adolescents in identity formation and emotion regulation. I look forward to bringing my experience to private practice.

My goals for you

I help clients clarify their goals by exploring what truly matters and identifying obstacles. Together, we break goals into manageable steps and regularly check in on progress, adjusting as needed. I offer structure, insight, and encouragement throughout, always tailoring the pace and approach to fit your unique needs and strengths.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll get to know one another and begin building trust. I'll invite you to share what brought you to therapy, what you're hoping to work on, and any relevant history. This is also a space for you to ask questions, get a sense of my style, and explore what a supportive relationship can look like.
