Brooke Stevenson therapist in North Carolina and Arizona

Welcome!

The fact that you’re here, means you’re ready for change.

Recognizing that you are not where you want to be is the starting point for getting where you want to go.

Hi there, I’m Brooke

And I really, really enjoy the work I do.

I’ve worked in the mental health field (with couples, individuals, and families) for over 15 years.

Through it all, I am continually in awe of the depth of the human experience as well as the resiliency of the human spirit.

I am passionate about working with individuals who are anxious, depressed, stressed, burnt out or stuck in past trauma to help them heal the past and find peace and balance in their lives again.

I believe in your ability to heal, grow, and thrive because I have the privilege of watching my clients do it everyday.

And because, well, I’m human too…

I’ve had my own experiences with burn-out, people pleasing and perfectionism and I know what it’s like to live a life out of alignment with my own needs and goals.

I know I can not lead you on a journey further or deeper than I am willing to go on my own, which means that I am dedicated to my own self discovery while having the privilege of supporting my client’s on their own unique paths.

Me at age 12! 

I’m committed to showing up for the best version of myself every day, so that I can also show up for the clients I support and the people I love.

Therapy with me is a collaborative process.

I see this healing work as the intersection of science and spirituality, and I am proud to use a combination of modalities that pull for your strengths, your resiliency and your natural inclination towards healing.

I am passionate about working with folks who are…

  • eager to learn how they became who they are,

  • release the limiting beliefs holding them back,

  • and write a future based on their deepest dreams and desires.

With curiosity and compassion, we’ll explore your patterns and beliefs, how your life experiences have shaped you, what’s working and not working.

Together, we’ll sit with the uncomfortable emotions, explore your pain, all in an effort to deepen your capacity for joy, ease, play and creativity.

Let’s do this.

I believe…

  • I believe that you deserve to feel better

  • I believe most people who are seeking therapy can benefit from the therapeutic process.

  • I believe that, while I have expertise and experience to support you, you are the expert in your own life experience. Your inner wisdom will be the guide in our work together.

  • I believe you are worthy of love and care

  • I believe that therapy should address the person as a whole - their mind, body, and spirit

  • I believe that therapy is more than just showing up for one hour each week. The therapeutic process is about incorporating new insights, skills, and understandings into your day-to-day life. Together, we’ll discuss and troubleshoot step by step, so you can achieve the changes you desire and bring your life into alignment with your identity, hopes, and dreams.

  • I believe that taking care of yourself is the most generous thing you can do for the people you love and also the world
