Heather Brooks

My communication style

I strive to cultivate a space where my clients have the opportunity & safety to be their most authentic selves; be that raw, ugly, good, bad, or indifferent. Most of us spend our whole day or lives changing masks between being a colleague, child, sibling, spouse, parent, friend, etc.

My journey to mental healthcare

I’ve known I would be in this career field since I had the opportunity to be a conflict counselor in 3rd grade. I volunteered for a trauma program throughout high school, and in the following years, I’ve worked in group homes, with the foster care system, inpatient facilities, correctional institutions, & maintained a private practice.

My goals for you

I practice a collaborative approach. I will never know you better than you know yourself. You know what isn’t working for you, & why you’re here reading this right now. Together we’re going to prioritize your concerns & establish realistic goals. Therapy is tough. Change is tough. You coming to therapy is tackling change!

Our first session

Our intake session is where we’ll meet & review your intake paperwork. I’ll review your documents before our session & identify any additional questions I may have, or where some clarification could be helpful. I’ll review or inform you of the limits to confidentiality in our work together.
