Find a Therapist in United States

My practice is grounded in one central idea: that family, in all of its forms, deserves to be understood, supported, and thoughtfully nurtured. I have the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families at some of the most meaningful—and often most vulnerable—moments in their lives. Whether someone is building a family, navigating challenges within one, or redefining what family means to them, my goal is always to create a space that feels both safe and genuinely supportive. A significant part of my work focuses on family building, including comprehensive evaluations for adoption, assisted reproduction, and other non-traditional pathways to parenthood. I have extensive experience working with adoptive parents, intended parents, and families formed through surrogacy, donation, and other modern family-building processes. These evaluations are not just procedural—they are an opportunity to reflect, prepare, and enter parenthood with clarity and confidence. In addition to evaluation work, I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families. I approach this work with warmth, directness, and deep respect for each person’s experience. Whether addressing relationship strain, life transitions, trauma, or the complexities of parenting, I aim to help people better understand themselves and each other, and to move forward with intention. I have a particular passion for working with non-traditional families—those whose paths may fall outside of conventional expectations but are no less meaningful or deserving of support. My practice is inclusive, affirming, and grounded in the belief that there is no single “right” way to build or be a family. Above all, I strive to offer a space where people feel seen, understood, and guided—not judged. This is deeply personal work, and I consider it an honor to be part of my clients’ journeys.  

You may be accomplished, capable, and the person others rely on, yet still find yourself overthinking, second-guessing, or feeling like what you do is never quite enough. I offer thoughtful, engaged therapy that goes beyond simply managing symptoms to understand the patterns, relationships, and experiences that keep you stuck. With nearly nearly 20 years of experience, I provide a warm, down-to-earth, and inclusive space where people of all identities and backgrounds are welcomed and respected.  

I am a trauma therapist who works with queer & trans communities; sex workers, poly / ENM, kink / BDSM communities, neurodiverse and disabled communities; and substance users. My approach is informed by my shared identities and experiences with these communities. I work with survivors of Intimate Partner Violence; childhood and adult sexual violence; attachment and complex trauma; hate violence; and police, state, and institutional violence.  

Hello, I am Dr. David Brooks, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with more than 30 years experience. I offer treatment in person in our Bismarck ND office and also online therapy remotely to individuals in most locations in the United States. 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. I have been able to assist more than 2,000 individuals to achieve hope, relief and life satisfaction.  

Nature-Based Therapy in Steamboat Springs and Summit County, Colorado, plus Virtual Therapy in Colorado This work isn't about fixing you. It's about helping you come back to who you are underneath survival patterns, heartbreak, and emotional conditioning, and uncovering the best version of you. Many of my clients are insightful, high-functioning people who feel stuck in painful relationship patterns, anxiety, heartbreak, disconnection, or major life transitions. They may look like they are holding everything together on the outside while internally feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, lost, or disconnected from themselves and others. I help people slow down, understand the deeper roots of their struggles, and create healthier ways of relating — both to themselves and the people they love.

As a certified bilingual therapist, I offer services in both English and Spanish, ensuring that clients can engage in therapy in the language that feels most comfortable and authentic. I am passionate about creating a safe, affirming space for LGBTQ individuals and those exploring themselves.  

Therapy is more than just talking about what has happened to you. It is about understanding how your past experiences continue to shape the way you think, feel, and respond to the world around you. In our work together, we bring your everyday experiences into the therapy room, exploring how moments from your present may connect to patterns from your past. Through this process, we work to make sense of those connections, challenge patterns that may no longer serve you, and develop new ways of responding. My goal is not simply to help you cope with life's challenges, but to help you reconnect with yourself, rediscover your strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change.  

I offer a safe and private space to process potentially difficult experiences and emotions.
