About Brooke
Brooke Bodar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wyoming with three years of clinical experience. She works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, ADHD, and young adult issues. Brooke also addresses relationship and family problems, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose and money.
Brooke began her career after earning a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling. Before that she completed a Bachelor of Science in Communication Disorders and worked with people who had speech disorders. She moved into community mental health and then into school counseling while keeping part-time private practice work alongside those roles.
Her approach centers on building a genuine counseling relationship based on unconditional positive regard, empathy, and authenticity. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to help people feel heard and understood. Brooke also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and Solution-Focused Therapy to set practical, short-term goals.
Brooke values working with adults who are navigating life transitions like starting careers, parenting, or dealing with mood and stress concerns. She aims to help people clarify choices, shift perspectives, and build confidence in taking next steps. She describes people as having inner resources to manage their problems, and she focuses on connecting in straightforward, respectful ways.
Outside of counseling, Brooke spends time with her family, horses, and dog, and enjoys the mountains. She is pursuing additional work toward certification in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy while continuing part-time counseling practice.
How her approaches translate to online work
Brooke uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on attentive listening and reflecting what the person says, which helps people feel understood and clarify their thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to shift thinking and try different actions.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with strong feelings in relationships and personal life. Those approaches are often useful for issues like anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and navigating life changes common in early adulthood. Brooke will work together with each person to choose which methods fit best based on goals and preferences rather than assuming a single path.
