Hello! I am Brook. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist and I'm honored to be considered to work with you on your therapeutic goals.

I received my Bachelors in Psychology from Friends University in 2003 and completed my Masters in Social Work in 2009 from Newman University. My experience began during my internship in a clinical practice, focusing on children and families. I have continued in the field of play therapy, working with youth and families in both the community and clinical settings with a variety of needs including anxiety, ADHD, depression, adjustment issues, and relational difficulties. My training and experience focus on working with children who have experienced trauma using both TF-CBT and play techniques, as well as sand tray in a clinical setting. I also have a background in working with at-risk youth and children in emergency and short term foster care placements. Most recently, I completed my Child Centered Play Therapy certification from University of North Texas Center for Play Therapy and currently offer CPRT classes under supervision. My preferred methodology is non-direct play therapy focusing on relational skill building with families using both individual and family therapy practice.

I am a life-long Kansan and love spending time at home with my husband, children, and extended family. I have a passion for music and nature both in and out of the office. Most importantly, I look forward to working with you on your individual therapeutic journey.
