About
As a clinician with over 30 years of experience, I have worked in multiple settings with widely differing populations and needs as a clinician, supervisor, and educator.
Dr. Brooks began his career in mental health and addictions counseling in 1992. Since that time, he has worked in inpatient and outpatient settings as varied as rural community clinics, hospitals, managing clinics in urban communities, directing an international employee assistance program, university counseling centers, and developing & managing treatment programs for executives and professionals. Populations he has served have been just as varied—addictions (both substance abuse and behavioral), mental health, individuals & families, adoption, indigent persons, athletes, executives, and professionals. He has held faculty positions at 6 universities and colleges in psychology and counseling programs.
Dr. Brooks earned his bachelor's in Psychology from East Carolina University, his master's degree in Rehabilitation Counseling and a master's in Substance Abuse Counseling from ECU. After working for a few years, he returned to ECU and earned a Certificate of Advanced Study in Employee Assistance Program counseling and later an EdS in Counselor Education. He completed his academic career at NCSU where he received his Ph.D. in Counselor Education & Supervision. Dr. Brooks worked full-time as a therapist while in school and brings a wealth of practical as well as academic experiences to his practice. His counseling style is based in the philosophies of Stoicism, existentialism and the work of Viktor Frankl's logotherapy using the theories of cognitive development and the tools of cognitive behavioral and rational-emotive therapies
We have good days and bad days. Or we can say we have growing days. Growing days are those occasions when we are challenged to learn, change, and improve our lives and the lives of those that are most important to us.

My go-to approach for helping individuals is to create a safe, judgment-free space where they feel heard, respected, and understood. I prefer client-centered therapy to build trust and cognitive behavioral therapy to help teens identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts.

Anxiety and depression are two of the most common mental illnesses. Although the two are separate mood disorders, they are often co-occurring.
The key indicator of anxiety and depression is disruption—daily functioning and daily life cannot continue as normal because of the following:
Have you experienced any of these symptoms? If so, consider reaching out for help from an experienced mental health professional. A variety of treatment options are available, and skilled therapists and counselors may be able to help you find a treatment plan that works for you.
People are whole beings—their minds and their bodies are interconnected. What affects the mind can affect the body, and what affects the body can affect the mind. When anxiety and depression strike, their effects can reach across the mind and the body. For example, people may struggle with the following as they struggle with anxiety and/or depression:
Treating anxiety and depression is not about quick fixes or magic potions. Therapy is often a difficult process of finding ways to manage symptoms and seeking out healing for deeper wounds.
