When it comes to mental health, it can be difficult to find the right match or feel like you are making the right choice, especially for your kids. As parents, you want to make the best choices for your children and set them up for a successful life and sometimes children and teens needs a little extra help. Do you have a child or teen whom you may feel needs extra tools to help with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideations, time management, anger management, emotional regulation or has experienced trauma?

It is my passion to work alongside individuals on issues related to the pervasive impacts of trauma. This includes childhood sexual abuse, attachment wounds, anxiety, panic, depression, self-esteem concerns, relational discord, infidelity, and grief. I am also drawn to offering support for those effected by the gaps in our systems related to military/families, as well as those struggling with postpartum related issues. My passion for these areas has driven me to help fill in those gaps through the support and psycho education that lacks in these important populations.

Hello! My name is Brooke Weesner and I am currently accepting virtual clients! I strive to create a welcoming, judgment-free, safe space for all my clients. I am excited to work with any population on their mental health journey. Just to name a few, I work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, emotion regulation, behavior issues, life transitions, and stress. I utilize client-centered, cognitive behavioral (CBT), strength-based, and solution-focused approaches to best serve my clients. As long as you are located in the state of Tennessee, we can do therapy!

On the surface, you appear to have it all- successful career, a loving partner, and a circle of supportive friends. However, beneath the exterior lies a profound sense of inner turmoil and emotional distress. You have been struggling with chronic anxiety, and experiencing debilitating panic attacks that leave you feeling overwhelmed and out of control. You want to feel more secure, in control, and present in your everyday life. I can help foster a safe warm environment where we can work together to navigate your journey to healing and becoming a happier version of you!

I am excited to work with clients of any population. As a veteran, I have experience working with the military, substance abuse, PTSD, and anxiety. My current areas of interest include anxiety, depression, substance abuse, personality disorders, and family or couples therapy. I also have a particular passion for working with adolescents and young adults struggling with behavioral problems and those from disadvantaged backgrounds, as well as working with issues of anger management.

Have you lost your sense of purpose and feel like it is impossible to find it again? Do you find it impossible to trust others even though you yearn for a deeper connection with your loved ones? Have you noticed a big change in your child’s behavior and emotions and are unsure how to help? Are you just tired of being tired? There is hope, and you don’t have to go through this alone. I have experience working with a wide variety of populations, and I would love to help you start your healing journey.
