Through her trauma and pain God has called and equipped her to successfully walk with others through symptoms of trauma. She believes people yearn for empathy, and a desire to be heard and understood during suffering. Brooke values the expression of authentic emotion and can support others with great care, respect, and sensitivity when they are experiencing painful emotions. She believes self-care is part of the answer to how we can all better cope with daily stressors. She sees self-care as a valuable asset to healing physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. 

 

Brooke believes victory in healing is possible for all people and that a person’s value is in the simplicity of their existence, and their worth is not in what they do or have done, but just because they are. Brooke connects easily with people from a variety of different backgrounds, she is an empathetic listener who specializes in coping mechanisms and can provide advice as well as listen.
