My name is Gail Brooklin Eaves, the president of Brookdell & Beck Counseling Services. I am a licensed professional counselor and a board-certified counselor. Currently, I am pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Psychology with a specialization in addictions. I can help you to build your self-esteem, restore self-love, and increase your peace and well-being. Moreover, I can help you to decrease your crying episodes, panic attacks, and anxiety. Let's find a solution together!
I strive to approach each session in a supportive, nonjudgmental, hopeful, and strength-based manner. I am here to help you gain insight into your emotional well-being and improve the coping skills you need to face life's challenges. I use various approaches that can be tailored to your specific needs. I provide the guidance needed for you to improve your communication and relationships and help you move past challenges that are blocking you from achieving your personal goals.
I'm licensed to practice in NC & have been working in the field since 2001. I have extensive experience working with adolescents, young adults, & adults in individual, group, couples, & family therapy. I have deep theoretical understanding but approach psychotherapy in a down to earth way.
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC, CIRT, CCH
It is so hard to express the intense and personal work we do in a blurb, so I'll try but feel free to give me a call. I work with US & international clients and expats on resolving life concerns and mental distress . I have twenty years of experience working with people in a multitude of settings. My approach is flexible, person-centered and warm. I like to make therapeutic work accessible and real-yet still deep, even in tough situations. My background is in humanistic , experiential and psychodynamic approaches. It basically means I trust people to have a sense of inner direction and that our job is to find it by having them contact their deeper sense of self in the moment; and also remove the barriers our upbringing has brought us that gets in the way as we move forward.
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.
