About Brooke
Brooke Brunken is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 13 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She works with concerns including ADHD, LGBT issues, relationship and family stress, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, anger, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. Brooke prefers a straightforward, down-to-earth style that focuses on practical next steps.
Her approach is relaxed and solution-focused. She looks for small, doable changes that lead to visible improvements.
How Brooke works
Sessions often include talking through daily habits and routines to see what helps and what gets in the way. Brooke uses elements of client-centered work to listen and respond to each person’s needs. She adds cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns.
Motivational interviewing helps when someone is uncertain about making a change. She also draws on narrative and solution-focused ideas to help people reframe their stories and set short-term goals. That mix allows her to tailor sessions to the problem at hand and the pace the person prefers.
Brooke aims for clear, practical plans rather than long lists of tasks. She helps people find habits that fit their life and build from small successes. The tone in sessions is calm and collaborative, with an emphasis on what can change now.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Brooke uses client-centered work to listen closely and shape sessions around what matters most to each person. That approach focuses on understanding feelings and building trust so people can set their own goals and move at a comfortable pace.She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when people want clear steps to change patterns that cause distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Brooke will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try techniques and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is good for shorter check-ins, and messaging offers ongoing access between sessions. These options make it easier to fit appointments into busy days and keep continuity of care when schedules change.
