Let’s ride the wave together
Mental health services for children, adolescents, young adults, and parents.
Los Angeles, California
Hi, I’m Brooke.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) located in West Los Angeles, CA. My private practice, Light Minds Therapy, is dedicated to supporting children, adolescents, young adults, and parents.
I have over 10 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, young adults, and parents in a variety of settings such as pre and post adoption services, alcohol and drug services, community mental health services, schools, and outpatient mental health services. I firmly believe that in order for my clients to see growth and obtain a “light mind”, it’s essential to have a therapeutic environment that is non-judgmental, trusting, validating, and supportive.
All of my services take place via telehealth or within the client’s home/community. The traditional office setting can be intimidating, lead to increased resistance, limit accessibility of services, and create clinical blind spots on the client’s real day-to-day life. Upon entering the space of my clients via telehealth or in-home, I strive to work toward building rapport through a warm and strengths-based approach. I want my clients to feel like they are meeting with someone who truly cares rather than a robotic mental health professional. Creating a space of trust is more important than any coping tool or guidance that I can offer my clientele.
I offer telehealth services for those located in CA and currently see clients for in-home therapy sessions in the following areas:
Westwood, Los Angeles, CA
Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA
Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles, CA
Anxiety
Depression
Grief and Loss
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Process for Getting Started
-
Step 1: Schedule Consult and Intake Session
You may call or email to request a free 15 minute initial consultation.
After the consultation, you have the option to schedule a 50 minute intake session via telehealth. All intake sessions take place via telehealth regardless of your preference for ongoing services. This is a good opportunity for me to learn about your needs, answer any questions you may have about Light Minds Therapy, and determine whether we are a good fit.
Prior to our intake meeting, I will send over my intake forms for you to review and sign through the client portal. These forms must be complete before we have our intake session.

Step 2: Identify Plan for Sessions
There is no pressure and no commitment to sessions following the intake session. I care most that you find the right clinician for your needs. After the intake session, I will follow up to see how the meeting went and whether you would like to move forward with sessions. If I am the right clinician for you then we will develop a plan for the structure of sessions moving forward.

Step 3: See Growth and Change
I am determined to see you succeed in reaching your goals. I cannot promise that the journey will be easy, but I can assure you that you are no longer alone. We will work together as a team to get you unstuck and living the life you want to live.
