Naomi Brookes, BACP

Naomi Brookes is a UK-based therapist with three years of professional experience and membership of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She recognises that life can take unexpected turns and that there are times of darkness, grief, and uncertainty when extra support is needed. Naomi works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low motivation, reduced self-esteem and confidence, and depression, offering practical and compassionate help to make sense of difficult moments.

She also has specific experience supporting people through life changes, particularly perimenopausal women navigating physical and emotional shifts. Naomi prioritises respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every interaction, adapting dialogue and treatment plans to the individual needs of each person she sees. Her approach is collaborative - she works alongside clients to identify goals and to find ways to ease distress and improve daily functioning.

Naomi understands that reaching out for therapy takes courage, and she acknowledges and honours that first step. She aims to provide a steady, nonjudgmental presence while tailoring support to each person’s unique situation.

Evidence-based approaches and online convenience

Naomi works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people understand how thoughts and emotions interact and how those patterns affect behaviour. These talking approaches support exploration of difficult feelings, improve emotional awareness, and can be helpful for issues such as anxiety, low mood, and relationship difficulties.

She also uses practical, skills-focused strategies to build coping tools for day-to-day life. These techniques teach concrete ways to manage stress, boost confidence, and navigate life transitions, making them useful for perimenopausal change, motivation challenges, and coping with grief or loss.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey. Naomi collaborates with each person to identify needs, goals, and personal preferences, and together they choose methods that feel most helpful and sustainable.

Online therapy with Naomi is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access support from home or work, fit sessions around other commitments, and continue therapy during life changes while working with a registered professional.
