ello,

I'm Brooke Henderson, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), Registered Art Therapist and Registered Therapeutic Counsellor. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and creative. I believe therapy is not about being “fixed,” but about developing a deeper understanding of yourself and finding tools and approaches that actually fit the way you experience the world.

What does it look like to work with Brooke?

My approach is warm, collaborative and curious.

I don't believe therapy should feel like sitting across from someone while they tell you what's wrong with you.

Sometimes it means making art, working with the body, using EMDR, exploring patterns in relationships, or finding another way to approach something that doesn't quite have words yet.

You don't have to know exactly what you need before you begin. Part of our work together can be figuring that out.

I see therapy as a collaborative process where we can slow things down, make sense of what's happening beneath the surface, and find approaches that genuinely fit you.

Approaches I Incorporate

EMDR

(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a trauma-focused therapy that helps individuals process and heal from distressing memories by using bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements or tapping. It supports the brain’s natural ability to reprocess traumatic experiences, reducing emotional intensity and fostering resilience.
