About John
John Brooks is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Louisiana with 10 years of experience. He works with adults facing relationship and family challenges and a wide range of concerns from anxiety and depression to addictions and grief.

Brooks helps people sort through conflicts that arise when households change. He addresses parenting strain, intimacy concerns, and issues common in blended families. He also works with people navigating trauma, attention differences, and problems that affect work and daily routines.
His approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. He uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns of thinking and behavior. He incorporates attachment ideas to make sense of how past relationships affect current ones. He also uses acceptance and commitment strategies to identify values and committed actions.
In sessions he listens for strengths and builds on them. Conversations are practical and goal-focused. He invites clients to try new skills between meetings and review how they worked.
Brooks offers services in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire on the platform and schedule a first session.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life changes where motivation or direction feels unclear.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and behavior patterns and replaces them with clearer options. It is useful for anxiety, mood problems, sleep issues, and some eating or anger concerns.
Attachment-Based Therapy examines how past relationship patterns affect current connections and trust. It can help people understand relationship or intimacy difficulties and repeated conflict patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and immediate needs. That may mean combining tools from different approaches and adjusting them over time.
