About Brooke

Brooke Elliott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Jersey with six years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress and anxiety, grief related to illness or loss, anger management, and concerns around self-esteem and motivation.

Background and approach

Her background includes supporting clients facing chronic health challenges, caregiving stress, and life transitions that affect emotional wellbeing. Brooke approaches therapy from a perspective that centers the client's expertise in their own life while using evidence-informed techniques to foster change.

She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies alongside client-centered and solution-focused tools to help clients identify patterns, build coping skills, and take practical steps toward goals. Her work also addresses relationship and family concerns, perinatal mood issues, and challenges tied to isolation or major life stages.

Clients can expect a collaborative, strengths-based stance where the therapist helps surface resources and supports progress at a manageable pace. Brooke offers sessions in a variety of online formats to accommodate differing schedules and preferences, and she assists clients in finding approaches that align with their needs and values.

How Evidence-Informed Approaches Translate to Online Care

Brooke uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress. CBT focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and is useful for building concrete coping strategies and problem-solving habits.

She also draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the individual's perspective, offering empathetic, nonjudgmental support while encouraging self-directed insight and growth. Motivational interviewing is another tool she may use to explore ambivalence and strengthen personal motivation for change, often helpful when clients want to increase follow-through on goals.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process; Brooke works with clients to determine which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they adapt methods over time so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, access care from home, and integrate therapeutic work into daily life while allowing the therapist to tailor formats to each client's routine and communication style.
