About Brooke
Brooke Ayoub is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She draws on five years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, and trouble with relationships. Brooke works with clients who want practical tools for mood, motivation, parenting strains, and navigating big life changes.
She uses approaches such as Existential therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
Background and approach
Sessions blend conversation with skill building, mindfulness, and movement-based ideas when helpful. Brooke aims to make sessions straightforward and relatable so people can use what they learn right away. Her background includes work in a range of mental health settings where she supported people facing trauma, crisis, and serious mental health symptoms.
That experience shaped a trauma-informed style that emphasizes safety and steady pacing. Brooke also has training that supports helping people re-enter work and manage vocational challenges. Brooke incorporates mindfulness, breathing, and elements of yoga into her sessions when clients are interested.
She focuses on helping people find clearer values, set realistic goals, and build routines that reduce overwhelm. Her approach centers on listening first, then working together to try practical steps that fit each person’s life. People who want direct, down-to-earth support for anxiety, family conflict, caregiving stress, parenting struggles, or coping with chronic health issues may find this approach helpful.
Brooke invites clients to try small changes and notice what helps over time.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Existential therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and face big life questions. It often focuses on meaning, choice, and how to move forward when life feels uncertain. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills to accept difficult thoughts while committing to actions that match personal values; it is useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation struggles.Client-Centered therapy centers the person’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens without judgment and helps the client find their own solutions. Brooke will work collaboratively to figure out which of these approaches fits best for each person, tailoring sessions to what feels most useful. Deciding together which methods to use is part of the therapy process, and adjustments are made as goals evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow full conversation and visual cues while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can help with shorter check-ins, skill reminders, and flexible communication between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try approaches that work with each person’s schedule and preferences.
