In my practice, I focus on helping clients overcome mental and physical health barriers. I specialize in solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and holistic healthcare. I primarily work with adults from diverse cultural backgrounds, aiming to help individuals find peace in their daily lives, acceptance in their choices, and develop tools to manage stress.
My counseling style is laid-back. I’ve been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate, with a good sense of humor (as noted by me, with a smile!). I focus on identifying your strengths and helping you maximize them to overcome obstacles. I’m here to help you navigate the challenges you’re facing and to offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can be open and honest.
Reaching out for help is the first and most important step, and I’m sorry that you’re going through a tough time right now. However, I’m really glad you’re here, and I’d like to support you as you work through these struggles. Together, we’ll explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe and supportive environment.
I bring over 25 years of experience as a clinical social worker, working with a wide range of ages and cultural backgrounds. More personally, my experience as a mother of a child with mental health challenges has given me a deep understanding of navigating the healthcare system and finding necessary resources.
If you’re in crisis and feel you may harm yourself or others, please call 911 or the 24-hour emergency crisis hotline. BetterHelp does not offer crisis counseling, but immediate help is available.

Jeana Rooks is exactly what I need to help me grow as a human being. I've only had 5 sessions with her but she is very professional, a good listener and she's very good at redirecting me to think in a different way. On top of that she never judges me (esp when I swear sometimes to let my feelings out haha) and have a laugh with me. It's been very helpful and I'm blessed to find her on Better Help. I highly recommend Jeana and I will continue my sessions with her.
Thank You Jeana! You are WICKED!!! Thanks for your guidance.

Jeana is awesome. She gets right to the heart of the presenting concern and meets you at the level you're comfortable with to do the work. Active listening is one of her strengths, as well as being solution-focused, which was what I found most useful. Sessions are safe and always inspiring of self-reflection. Jeana is a great helper that I highly recommend!

Jeans Brooks is a wonderful therapist. As a therapy veteran, I have had two great therapists in the past 6 years, and a handful of not so great ones. Jeana falls in the great category. She is attentive, understanding, and gives as much as you ask for.

I came to better help in a time of my life that I felt completely out of control. I had little to no coping mechanisms and life was just becoming so difficult. Jeana is an angel. She is kind and warm. She helps you to acknowledge your own self worth and gives you the tools to build your confidence back. She is able to do this in such a kind and nurturing way. I am so thankful that we were paired together.

Jeana was my first (and probably last) therapist here on BetterHelp and I couldn’t be more thankful and grateful! She has been such a joy to work with. She’s caring and supportive, listening with such an open mind and heart each time. Her easygoing nature and sense of humour, makes it so easy for me to be honest and vunerable and that truly allowed me to be better. It is safe to say that she has made a tremendous positive impact and change in my life and I am forever thankful. I wish you all the best Jeana and may you always be healthy and happy. Much love! <3

My time with Jeana has been illuminating and helpful. She has listened to me patiently even as I went over the same issues over and over again, and given me tools to be able to reframe my thoughts and make sense of them. She is very open and patient, and makes an effort to understand my culture and background (which is different from hers) and tries to take it into account. I have benefitted greatly from having my weekly sessions with her. Often I just needed someone to talk it out with and she has been a great sounding board.

Getting help and taking the extra step to go to therapy ca be very intimidating and scary.
