About
Hello my name is Brooke Yaffe. I am an LPC with a license issued by the state of Oklahoma and I have an M.Ed. in Applied Behavioral Studies/Counseling. I have over 3 years of counseling experience. Prior to being an LPC I was a secondary science and special education teacher. I have taught grades 3 through 12. In a therapeutic setting I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, family conflicts, coping with grief and loss, parenting issues, social behavior, transgender, sexual identity, career/life transitions, educational conflicts/test anxiety, and crisis counseling.
I am experienced in many counseling techniques and have an open minded compassionate approach. My counseling style and approach is Holistic/Integrative. The first few sessions start out with a person-centered therapy approach. It is important to establish a trusting, ethical, therapeutic relationship by form of congruence, unconditional positive regard, and empathy in the beginning. Many times a person-centered approach leads the client to discover the answers for themselves. However, the information collected in the first few sessions may lead to a better suited theory. With issues like depression or anxiety, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) can be helpful and an optional approach therapy. CBT has also been great when working with adolescents who struggle with aggression and conduct disorders. Dialectical behavior therapy techniques to be useful in a counseling setting as well. My counseling style and approach really depends on the client and what best fits the situation. Person-centered therapy, CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness have been my main approach and style.
Whether you are seeking change for a healthier happier life, or just need a non judgmental ear to listen, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
