About Brooke

Motherhood, in any capacity, is transformational. Sometimes it transforms us in ways we don't expect. The unexpected can be scary, exhausting, traumatizing, and confusing. Together, we can navigate through and process these challenges.

During our time together, I will provide you with resources, guidance, support, and a safe space to just be. I value authentic conversation and digging through the layers underneath the surface. We will take a look at the feelings that arise in real time and hold space for them.

After our work together, you will feel connected to your authentic self and be able to live life joyfully without the pressures to be perfect. I am a therapist who will nurture and challenge you, be your biggest advocate, and keep you grounded when things seem out of control.

PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY

More Than Just My Work

"When I realized the internal calm that comes with doing my own work, I was eager to teach others to do the same."

I am a huge believer in the power of energy. My spiritual connection to the universe/God is important to me.

I love being outside... I grew up in (and now live in) Sarasota, FL so the beach is my happy place!

Brooke's Vision for Nurture & Be

As the founder of Nurture & Be, Brooke created a practice built on the belief that helping the mother heals the family. Her vision of collaborative, compassionate care — the Circle of Care model — ensures that clients receive comprehensive support from a team that works together.

While Brooke is not currently accepting new individual clients as she focuses on leading the practice, her approach and values are woven into every aspect of Nurture & Be. The therapists on our team are carefully selected and share Brooke's commitment to authentic, transformational care.

Customer testimonials

From the very beginning, I felt heard, validated, and never judged.
Brooke helped me work through postpartum anxiety and other challenges in a way that felt manageable and empowering. Sessions gave me practical tools, clarity, and—most importantly—confidence in myself again.

-L.E.

I would highly recommend any of the wonderful staff to anyone for someone to share their experiences with. The offices are beautiful, comfortable and soothing a real place of zen.

-L.B.

Nurture and Be was extremely professional, responsive, and great to work with. They worked with me to get me scheduled quickly at a time that was best, and provided unmatched customer service. Highly recommend!

-J.W.

Her knowledge and ability to counsel those going through the rollercoaster we call life is phenomenal. She’s a young business professional, wife, and mother so it’s easy to relate on a personal level to many. If you are looking for an amazing therapist, look no further, you found her.

-S.T.

I’m incredibly grateful for the support I received during my postpartum period and therefore after. Brooke helped me navigate one of the most overwhelming and vulnerable seasons of my life with compassion, patience, and genuine care.
