Brooklynn Sanders, LCSW

Background and Experience

Brooklynn works with children, adolescents, adults, and families. Her experience in the areas of abuse and trauma, foster care, self-worth, parenting, and mental health  disorders has allowed her to meet the unique needs of her clients.

She has had the opportunity to gain experience through working in child welfare, residential, and non-profit settings.  Brooklynn utilizes a strengths based, client centered approach to  partner with clients and their families in order to provide  individualized care to meet their needs and goals.

Personal Statement

I believe in the healing power of  relationships and connection. In our relationships, both inside the  therapy office and outside, is where we find solace in difficult times. I  strive to build collaborative relationships with my clients where they  feel safe enough to learn how to see and care for all parts of  themselves. I use an eclectic, client-centered approach to help clients  build upon their intrinsic strengths, offering guidance and support  along the way. I especially enjoy partnering with teens, young adults,  and their families as they navigate difficult transitions and emerging  adulthood. I have experience in treating individuals and families using  evidence-based modalities, including EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy,  child-centered play therapy, motivational interviewing, and trust based  relational intervention (TBRI). I also integrate parts work and faith into treatment upon request.
