Dianne Brooks

Hello! My name is Glenda “Dianne” Brooks, LPC, NCC

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Therapist with over 22 years’ experience engaging with adults around a variety of clinical and non-clinical issues.

Reaching out and connecting with a therapist to talk to, and share your story with, takes courage and discipline. It's also a positive first step to mental wellness which includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. I do believe that each individual has the ability to overcome their own personal struggles and challenges. Sometimes we just need one other person to validate, hear, and believe in us. As you seek out additional support through therapy, you can better identify and recognize the coping skills you already possess. Together we can explore the unprocessed and work towards a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling for you.

My counseling style is friendly and interactive and I treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I listen intently to clients, help them identify and connect with their inner strengths, and assist gathering information to find solutions to challenges. My clients come with a wide range of concerns as they try to cope with life adjustments, anxieties, depression, personal challenges, and career issues.

My educational background includes a Bachelor of Psychology Degree, Master of Arts in Counseling and Master of Arts in Clinical Counseling.

It takes courage to engage in counseling and taking that first step towards change can lead you to a more fulfilling and happier life. If you are ready and decide my experience and counseling style is the right match for you, I am here to support you!
