About Brooke
Brooke Bowen is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 22 years of experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and listens carefully to what is most pressing for each person. Brooke aims to create a calm, encouraging space where clients can talk through immediate struggles and plan practical next steps.
She draws from several therapeutic traditions to match care to the person in front of her.
Background and approach
That can mean focusing on how attachment patterns shape current relationships, using acceptance and commitment strategies to clarify values, or applying cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking. Sessions tend to be collaborative and focused on usable skills rather than abstract theory. Brooke trained in psychology and criminal justice and completed a master of science in psychology.
She has worked across settings since 2003 and has experience with a wide range of concerns, including depression, addictions, grief, parenting stress, ADHD, and identity questions related to LGBT issues. Her background gives her familiarity with both clinical and community systems. In session she keeps language straightforward and practical.
She supports people coping with chronic health issues, caregiver strain, body image concerns, and difficulties tied to abandonment or adoption. She also addresses workplace stress, career choices, and compassion fatigue. Brooke offers sessions to adults in Alabama and conducts therapy in English.
She uses a mix of longer sessions for deeper work and shorter check-ins when people need quick support. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their needs.

Online support
Attachment and skills-focused therapy online
Brooke often combines Attachment-Based Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to address how early relationship patterns affect current behavior and values. Attachment-informed work looks at recurring relationship themes and helps people understand and change patterns that cause pain. ACT focuses on identifying what matters to a person and taking small actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult emotions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy in sessions, which means conversations are guided by the client's priorities and pace. This approach emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental stance so clients can explore hard topics and decide what change looks like for them. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process; Brooke works with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level.
Online therapy offers practical advantages for people balancing busy lives. Video calls allow for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit quick check-ins or shorter coaching-style support. These options make it easier to keep consistency, fit sessions into work or caregiving schedules, and maintain momentum between appointments.
