About Brooke
Brooke Elliott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of practice in New Jersey. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, anger, self-esteem, depression, LGBT concerns, relationships, family matters, and parenting. Brooke approaches each person with respect and straightforward support.
She sees the first step toward change as a brave choice and offers steady guidance along the way. Brooke has particular experience helping people cope with health-related stress and grief from chronic or long-term illness.
Background and approach
She also works with motivation, confidence building, anger concerns, and general adjustment to life changes. Her style is practical and strengths-based. She helps clients find what already works for them and build from there.
Sessions are collaborative and focused on small, achievable steps. Brooke uses clear tools to reduce anxiety and improve mood. She mixes conversation, active problem-solving, and homework when it fits the person’s needs.
The goal is to make daily life easier and more manageable. Brooke holds the New Jersey LCSW credential and draws on evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused ideas. She values plain talk and honest feedback.
Her approach aims to be useful on a day-to-day level. People who want practical support for parenting, family tensions, or major life transitions may find her style helpful. Brooke offers multiple session formats to fit busy schedules.
She meets clients where they are and helps plan the next reasonable steps.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's own goals. The therapist follows the client's lead, offering empathy and support to help people find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior. It helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to change how they feel and act.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Brooke will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made. The collaboration helps match techniques to what feels most useful.
Online sessions can be done by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow flexible scheduling and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Remote formats also let people continue work on skills between sessions and use short check-ins when that is helpful.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
