My therapy journey is relatively new, but in the short amount of time that I’ve been speaking with Brooke, my overall mood has shifted more positively! She truly understands what I’m trying to work through and pushes me to think outside of the box in attempts to make progress. She listens and responds in ways that is specific to me and what I’m working on for myself. I’m glad I gave this a shot and more so glad that Brooke was paired with me, she’s the insight and help I needed!

Written on Oct 12, 2021 after therapy with Brooke for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, grief, and sleeping disorders
Thus far my experience with Brooke has been very beneficial. She is genuine and looks to find the heart of the issue with support afterward to help better oneself. I like her approach of relatability yet not over the top with her own experience, just enough to correlate a situation or event that directly leads back to questioning her patients on the how's and whys of thought patterns and behaviors. I appreciate the no fluff type of direction the sessions take and the written help afterward. Being very busy I forget pieces of conversations, yet can refer back to the notes she writes when I do have time or am in need of review. Thank you Brooke for working with me and sincerely trying to help better those who look for answers and want to change.

Working with Brooke has helped me so much. She gives bomb advice and especially action steps to take, not just “think positive” or some quote like that. It all seems very personal and Brooke shared a few things about herself before starting counseling, which I just found so sweet and again, personal. I would recommend BetterHelp and Brooke to everyone who seeks to change their life for the better.

Brooke is a great listener and has the ability to discern things about individuals that were not expressed. She offers advice that prompts you to think deeply in a constructive yet forward thinking way, allowing room for self accountability and real growth.
Her genuine care, experience, knowledge and resources have truly helped me become a better person. As a Christian individual, I came into counseling with some reservation leaning toward this experience potentially being another session of roundabout discussion. However, I kept an open mind and I am glad that I did.
I highly recommend Brooke. Thank you for doing what you do. God Bless you!

I've barely started my counseling through this website. Even though it has been 3 weeks, it has helped out. I'm able to tell her things that my paranoid delusions aren't able to use against me.

Brooke is great. She's very personable, which is a nice change from the therapists I've had in the past that I met face-to-face. I feel like I can truly talk to her about my concerns and worries and that she'll listen and respond without judgement.
She also does an amazing job of getting back to me at least once a day, sometimes two times. I LOVE the fact that I know I can send her a message first thing in the morning and that she'll have a response for me by the end of the day, sometimes sooner. She even checks on me after the weekends to see how they went and to see if any issues came up that I need to talk about.
I also love the fact that she seems to relate to the issues I'm having. It makes me feel normal, for once. Since she does such a great job of relating to me, she gives me great advice and tips for how to manage my stress levels and manage the various symptoms of my illnesses. I've already been having success by trying her suggestions, tips, and advice.
I would recommend that anyone who suffers from depression, anxiety, and/or borderline personality disorder should speak to Brooke, ESPECIALLY if they have impulse control issues like I do. She's truly the best therapist I've ever had, in all areas.

Brooke is incredibly supportive and offers wise words during times when I need a non-anxious, differentiated presence in my life. She sees things in my life with a clarity that sometimes eludes me because of the skewed view I have of things due to the nature of my illness. She is consistent--she's there when she says she will be, and she's been a lifeline in times of deep darkness in my life. I am and will be forever grateful for having Brooke in my life.

So far so good. I have already recommended BetterHelp to my niece. I can’t control her decisions but at least she knows there’s always someone to talk to.

I love Brooke's tips. They're simple enough that I can apply it on my daily life. She listens to me enough, but always direct me to the important parts of my problems. What I like also is she didn't belittle my problem. I don't have an extremely devastating problem compared to others, I guess, I'm from a good supporting environment, but she addresses my problems accordingly. Thank you.

I am 51 years old and started therapy (off and on, more on than off) when I was 28 years old. I have never had a therapist give me REAL, USEFUL ways to deal with my issues before. It has always been, "And how does that make you feel?" or "Your feelings over the things that have happened are valid." Ok, that's great, they're valid...help me move on. No one has in the past. Ms. Bowen really has! She gives me tools and strategies that I can use to live with my issues, AND function, while validating my feelings. I went outside of my home, without anxiety and no terror feelings, for the first time this past weekend, in ten years.

Brooke is amazing.
She responds, she's present, and she offers relevant advice. Having had a little experience with counselors in the past, I appreciate feedback. The interface to Pride Counseling encourages a dialogue between therapist and those using the service - and Brooke is ready to share her experience and expertise with compassion and empathy.

My counselor is Brooke Bowen - she has been very compassionate, non-judgmental, neutral, and helpful. She provides a lot of useful information regarding each concern or topic that we discuss. She checks in with me roughly twice per day, and I feel like she has my best interests at heart. I've connected better with her than with any other therapist I've had in my past.

Brooke has and continues to help me with many issues, she is kind, patient and fully understands. I'm a difficult case, but she took me on in her stride and went with it, I've felt really comfortable talking to Brooke and it feels like I'm talking and actually getting help from another human for once, she is simply amazing. I hope to continue being her client despite my struggles ongoing, it is a battle and I don't make it easy but Brooke has been there for me thus far!
