Hello, I am Dr. David Brooks, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with more than 30 years experience.

My approach is to provide healing for adults suffering from PTSD, Trauma, Anxiety, Low Self Worth, Depression, Fear Reduction and Unwanted Cravings. My goal is to provide relief as soon as possible, as people I treat have suffered for too long and I can often provide significant improvement in about 10 sessions.

Imagine Recovery Counseling LLC (Kristen Gidel Kelly)
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S, LICDC, CTTS, Certified EMDR Therapist and Consultant
Kristen Gidel Kelly: FOUNDER, Imagine Recovery Counseling
The first thing you need to know about me is that I am not your Traditional Therapist (I’m an EMDR and DBT nerd and super passionate about what I do!) and everyone that works for me is an extension of me and my values. I value both the science and the art, creative, and personalized experience of therapy. I value both ethical practice and the need to adapt the science that I have to fit the needs of the human being sitting in front of me.
My values regarding client care:
Trauma is something that happens to you, it’s not part of your identity. I work with trauma because I believe people can change and heal from their experiences. I seek to empower people to heal and grow and I truly believe you can. I have lived experience in most of the conditions that I treat or I have worked with them for a long time and have extensive training. You will not intimate me with your experience. I often tell my clients, “If I don’t know something, I will find out”. Many of the clients that come see me have had a prior therapy experience that did not go well. While I always remain humble in what I do and let folks know “You are in the driver’s seat”, I want to make it clear that I have 18 years of experience in what I do and I’m always learning and consulting with experts to be the best version of myself for my clients and my staff. I go to my own therapy and work on my own stuff. Lastly, it is part of my professional and personal ethics to respond to all client referrals within 24 hours. I feel strongly that if you reach out, I will respond. I keep our wait list intentionally low because I do not feel it’s ethical for folks to wait a long time to get help.
My values regarding my group practice:
I worked in community mental health and government for 17 years. Many times, I was working in a toxic, oppressive workplace and was extremely burned out. It is highly important to me to provide a healing and safe environment for my staff. I pride myself on hiring folks that are deeply aligned with my values, highly skilled and trained (it’s not always about years of experience!), and have the self respect to expect to be taken care of by their boss. I believe it’s important to always be learning. I teach my staff everything I know and provide them with free consultation and training. It is the privilege and a responsibility of a boss to take care of their people. If you work with my therapists, please know that I am taking care of them so they can skillfully take care of you! A lot of folks that come to work with me have been burned out by their previous employer and want something more. I value providing a safe, comfortable, trauma sensitive, diversity/inclusive, therapist centered working environment. Burnout will be assessed and taken seriously and consultation support is provided. It’s so important to me, I write this language into my contracts.

Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
I have been a psychologist in trauma work for many years, thus I can tailor my approach to meet your needs. Different ages and developmental stages throughout the life span require differing approaches. People generally wait to start therapy until their symptoms are really bothersome. I am currently accepting new patients, with no waiting list.

Monica Pitek-Fugedi
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, NCC, CCATP
Therapy is a unique experience. As such, I work with you to develop treatment goals and strategies that will best work for you. I take the time to get to know you and learn about your history so that we can establish a rapport. I believe that no significant change happens without a significant relationship. Therefore, my goal is to create a safe, nurturing environment for you to feel open to sharing your story.
I work from perspective of understanding and change. As such, I will support you in helping you to understand your self-defeating beliefs, relationship patterns, and the stories that you tell yourself that create your rules for living. I will help you to challenge and reframe thoughts so that you can live your most empowered life.
I work with cognitive-behavioral, acceptance, and commitment, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) practices to help you manage anxiety and life obstacles. I am also trained in EMDR, which has been proven to be effective in helping those who have experienced trauma.
