About Brooke
Brooke Ayoub is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, parenting, anger, career questions, bipolar disorder, and depression. Brooke also offers coaching for practical life changes and vocational transitions.
Her background includes work in mental health settings across Erie and Niagara counties, where she supported people diagnosed with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, and post-traumatic stress. She has experience in crisis intervention and suicide prevention and has worked with children, adolescents, and adults in those roles.
Brooke holds a master’s degree in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling from Auburn University and is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 500). She brings elements of yoga, ayurveda, and mindfulness meditation into her sessions when relevant. Her training also includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which she uses alongside other therapeutic tools.
In practical terms Brooke focuses on building skills people can use outside sessions. That might mean practicing acceptance and commitment techniques, applying cognitive strategies to reduce reactivity, or using mindfulness to notice triggers. She emphasizes collaborative work and straightforward tools for managing anger, impulse control, communication problems, and blended-family stress.
People meet her for help sorting immediate problems and for building longer-term routines. She supports vocational goals as well, helping clients prepare for work or navigate employer-related challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and centered on clear, usable steps rather than abstract theory.
How sessions work
How Brooke Uses Therapy Models Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It can help people who react with anger or avoidance and want steadier behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills for reducing reactivity and managing mood. It is useful for anger at work, patterns of criticism, and anxiety that fuels irritability.Brooke treats approach selection as a collaborative step. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and which methods feel most useful. Together they decide which practices to try and adjust the plan based on what helps in daily life.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting work and family schedules more easily and reducing travel time. Because formats were not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can still include skill practice, mindfulness exercises, guided reflection, and conceptual work that translates into real-world changes without promising a specific outcome.
