Brooke Wahlund, LMFT

Brooke Wahlund is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). As a licensed clinician she aims to offer a calm, non-judgmental environment where people can explore difficult feelings, develop greater self-awareness, and draw on their existing strengths to pursue meaningful change.

She practices from a humanistic and interpersonal perspective, prioritizing the development of a trusting therapeutic relationship in the early stages of work. Brooke recognizes that beginning therapy can feel overwhelming, and she focuses on creating connection and a sense of safety as foundational steps toward healing. Her experience includes supporting people struggling with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, increasing motivation and self-esteem, and managing major life transitions. Brooke holds the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and that their strengths are essential resources in overcoming challenges. She looks forward to supporting clients through this collaborative process.

Humanistic and Interpersonal Care Through Online Sessions

Brooke draws on humanistic and interpersonal approaches to guide online therapy in ways that are practical and approachable. Humanistic work focuses on understanding each person as a whole - their values, strengths, and personal goals - and is useful for clients seeking greater self-awareness, confidence, and meaning in the face of life transitions.

Interpersonal work centers on relationships and emotional patterns between people. It helps clients explore how interactions with others affect mood, stress, and connection, and can be especially helpful for relationship challenges, grief, and shifts in social roles.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Brooke will work with each client to identify which methods align best with their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time to find the most useful path forward.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, support for different communication styles, and ongoing access to a licensed professional from wherever the client is located within the therapist's service area.
