About Brooke
Brooke Lesley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and changes in life. She brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions and focuses on practical ways to feel steadier day to day. Many people come to her for help with depression, relationship or intimacy concerns, sleep struggles, and addiction-related stress.
Brooke pays close attention to how the body reacts to thoughts and memories.
Background and approach
She uses that awareness to guide conversations and small practices that reduce overwhelm. Mindfulness and self-compassion are regular parts of her work because they help people respond to hard feelings more gently. Her approach centers on the person in front of her.
Brooke treats people as the experts on their own lives and works together with them to set goals. Sessions aim to identify strengths, shift unhelpful beliefs, and try new ways of coping that fit each person’s situation. She also integrates attachment-based ideas when addressing relationship patterns and family of origin concerns.
For people with trauma histories, Brooke includes body-based noticing and evidence-informed techniques to help reduce distress and dissociation symptoms. With 12 years of clinical experience, Brooke blends practical tools and reflective conversation. She supports people through grief, caregiver stress, chronic illness, gender-related concerns, and career or life-purpose questions.
Her work is direct, empathic, and grounded in everyday steps that can be used between sessions.

Online support
Attachment and Mindfulness Approaches for Online Care
Brooke commonly draws on attachment-based work to notice patterns in how people relate to others and themselves, helping to shift repeated ways of reacting that cause pain. She also uses client-centered and mindfulness approaches that focus on the person's experience in the moment and teach simple practices to calm the nervous system.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Brooke will listen to your goals, try different methods, and adjust what she offers based on what helps you feel safer and more effective. Together you can choose practices and session rhythms that match your needs and preferences.
Online therapy lets people access this work through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video can support face-to-face conversation and guided mindfulness exercises. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in fits the day. Live chat and messaging are helpful for short updates, skill reminders, or when a written exchange feels easier. These options make it possible to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or health-related schedules while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
