About Brooke
Brooke Ayoub is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She brings five years of clinical experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family concerns. Brooke uses practical, down-to-earth guidance to help people find clearer steps forward.
Her background includes work across mental health settings where she supported people with mood and trauma-related challenges. That hands-on experience shapes how she approaches day-to-day problems like low motivation, parenting strain, or life transitions.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Brooke draws from several therapeutic approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, and EMDR. She also brings mindfulness practices into sessions when they fit a person’s goals.
She explains tools plainly and practices them together with the person in session. People who connect well with Brooke tend to want straightforward strategies and emotional understanding. She helps clients clarify values, learn skills to reduce anxiety, and rehearse new ways of coping.
Progress is measured in small, practical steps rather than quick fixes. Brooke offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.
How Brooke’s approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps people process past distressing memories and reduce their emotional hold.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Brooke will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT, EMDR, or a mix of methods best fits the situation and adapt the plan over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversations and exercises that need visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow ongoing reflection between sessions or when someone prefers written communication. These options aim to make it easier to attend sessions and practice skills consistently.
