Brooke Aymes, LCSW, LCADC
My name is Brooke Aymes - I am a licensed clinical social worker and a licensed drug and alcohol counselor in New Jersey and a licensed Telehealth therapist in Florida. I specialize in individual therapy sessions for adolescents, individuals and couples experiencing addiction, co-dependency of a loved one in addiction, mental illness and dual-diagnosis.
Credentials/Certifications
- Masters In Social Work (MSW)
- Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
- Licensed Drug and Alcohol Counselor (LCADC)
- Certification in Trauma (TF-CBT)
My holistic approach to therapy takes bits and pieces from several different therapeutic modalities to best fit each client’s unique needs. The main approaches that can be expected are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI). Challenging false beliefs and negative thought processes to help people heal from trauma, improve self esteem and break unhealthy patterns genuinely excites me which is why I work best with people who are ready to take on the challenge of change. My favorite piece of being a therapist is helping individuals to find peace within their own minds. Anxious thoughts and substance use can cloud our minds, prevent us from being fully present in the moment, deprive us of feeling joy and leave us feeling foggy, unorganized and irritated most days. Individuals doing therapy with me can expect an active therapy session paired with weekly homework assignments.
When I am not working, I'm a full time wife, mama, step-mama and fur-mama in substance use recovery managing my own anxiety. My experience brings both a personal and professional perspective to the work that I do with my clients.
I would love the opportunity to help you to decrease anxiety and increase your peace of mind. We can work together to find relief from anxious thoughts, work on repairing/building healthy relationships and start feeling more joy in each day. E-mail me today for a free 15 minute phone consultation to get started.
