Sherri Brooke
LPC • Licensed Professional Counselor
About
Inspired by the transformative power of change, Sherri Brooke, LPC, brings over 25 years of experience to her mental health practice. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Sherri's approach is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy, focusing on the intricate connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Her philosophy centers on empowering clients to become their own therapists, equipping them with lifelong skills to navigate future challenges independently.
Sherri's therapeutic style is both supportive and educational. She creates a safe space for self-expression while simultaneously teaching new coping skills. Her sessions are structured as a collaborative effort, where therapist and client work together to identify goals, clarify objectives, and implement plans for change. This approach typically results in short-term, solution-focused treatment with a specific timeframe for goal achievement.
A specialist in Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Sherri is one of only two rostered therapists in the Northland area. This expertise allows her to effectively address complex trauma-related issues. Her diverse professional background includes work in psychiatric hospitals, residential centers, local mental health facilities, and school districts. She has also provided in-home therapy, primarily working with children, teens, and families.
Sherri's academic credentials include a Bachelor of Educational Studies degree with a major in Education & Counseling Psychology from the University of Missouri-Columbia, and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Avila University. She is licensed in Missouri as a Professional Counselor and holds a national board certification.
In 2012, Sherri opened her own private practice, which she expanded in 2017 to include several contract therapists. This growth reflects her commitment to providing quality therapeutic services to a wider range of clients. Through her practice, Sherri continues to embody her core philosophy of making meaning and choosing positive attitudes, even in challenging circumstances. Her approach encourages clients to remove negative "filters" and consciously seek out positives, leading to a more purposeful and fulfilling life.
