Accepting New Clients at Therapy Together! Openings for EMDR Consultation! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker that specializes in mental health care for adults, college/graduate students, and twenty-somethings. I am licensed in MA, NY, and ME and offer telehealth therapy. I specialize in treating trauma, life transitions, and relationship issues. I am certified in EMDR therapy, and have in-depth experience working with people with Anxiety, Mood Disorders, PTSD, Adjustment issues, LGBTQ+ topics, and Co-occurring disorders.

I offer a judgement free environment for clients to feel safe with the concerns they are presenting. I value my clients rights to self determination and collaborative goal setting. I aim to provide a space for clients to grow through their journey while offering a confidential and safe space for that growth.

Have you been feeling anxious, depressed, isolated, stressed? Do you repeatedly engage in behaviors or relationships that don't help and may be harmful and find you can't stop? Whether these feelings & behaviors have been present for a long time or seemed to develop suddenly, it can be hard to figure out the cause or how to find relief. Sometimes distress is caused by prior trauma or by the coping skills developed early in life that are no longer effective or helpful. Personal growth, relief from emotional pain and discomfort, better relationships, and living a more fulfilled life are all possible.

View Point Clinical Therapy was formed in March 2023 by its owner Brooke Lewis, LCSW. View Point was established with a goal of integrating accessible mental health treatment into our communities across New York State- while refusing to compromise quality of care. View Point insists on remaining true to our identified values with every facet of the organization, never deviating from our mission. View Point will uphold our high standards of practice by utilizing our therapist derived value system in every level of care.

I understand that a person is more than a compilation of symptoms, and take into account a person’s history, current life experience and future goals to provide comprehensive treatment. I focus on issues relating to depression, role transitions and self-esteem. I provide a mostly psychodynamic approach to therapy, which allows a person to gain insight into their life experience. I believe psychotherapy is not a passive experience, and requires active participation by you. I am here to guide and help you realize your potential to live a more fulfilling life.

People seeking to become who they really are---that is, whole, balanced, resilient, contented---seek me out. I support kind, healthy, authentic relationship with all aspects of oneself because such relationship is key to kind, healthy, authentic relationships with others. It's also key to expressing ourselves most fully, both creatively and pragmatically. Whether working with individuals or couples, these principles apply. I try to make our work together as fun, co-creative, and as low in stress as possible. I intend for clients to leave therapy with personalized skills and skillful means for ongoing lifetime growth and resiliency.

Since 2001 I have been providing holistic, strength-based services. Above all, I believe that each and every person is capable of rediscovering their true self. A significant part of achieving this discovery includes finding a trusted, supportive individual who will listen with compassion. I provide a safe, comfortable environment to sort through whatever has been preventing you from emotional health and well being. I would be glad to answer any questions you may have about the therapeutic process. Please feel free to call, text or e-mail me anytime.
