Hi, I am Tammy Brooks, your California therapist providing individual counseling to make a difference in your life. I am rewarded by helping you grow and conquer your challenges so that you can begin promoting positive changes in your life. I help people who are struggling, having anxiety or fear, keeping them feeling stuck or hopeless. I help people discover best hopes for themselves despite problems by using Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I want to help you rediscover the joy and hope for a better tomorrow! As a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist in California since 2014, I am so dedicated and compassionate to help individuals 20 years and older that I even obtained licensure to offer online therapy in Michigan, Missouri, and Texas!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

You are not interested in spending a whole bunch of time talking about the problems. Actually, you really hate going back to the past just for sake of digging into the past. Why does any of that even matter anyway? You just want a therapist who knows how to help you talk through solutions and gets you moving in a positive direction. In my therapy sessions, I lead away from "problem talk" to "solution talk." The approach I use is Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I strongly believe this approach takes less time, saves money, and gets to your desired outcomes for therapy sooner, so much so, that I invested the time and money to obtain level 3 certification and attend regular training and practice calls with other SFBT clinicians so that I can perfect how I ask those questions. I am here to offer a virtual therapy safe space to discuss your concerns, offer support, and discover insights. No more endlessly rehashing problems. Starting from our first session, I will ask you what difference do you want therapy to make in your life? I will continue to ask questions and really listen to your answers. Together, through online therapy, you will learn how to take care of you, listen to your body and heart. We'll focus on your strengths, identify your best hopes, and build on the positive steps that you probably already know you can take. I hope to help you gain insight, recognize past coping strategies, and uncover that potential that’s already within you! On average my clients find that 12 weeks of weekly online therapy is sufficient to reach their goals. In other words, I don't expect you to be here forever- we want to get you change and get you graduated! Are you ready to create positive change in your life? Schedule a session with your solution-focused therapist and start your journey towards a happier, more fulfilling life.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have hope that things will change. Life doesn't have to be this tough. I’m confident that I will ask the right question that you will begin seeing that too. I am here to help you be the best version of yourself. Don’t let another day slip by—take the first step toward a better tomorrow to start building a life you’re proud of—starting today!
