Getting to know Brooke Castagna

I am a dedicated and compassionate Mental Health Counselor with a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Mercy University and diverse clinical experiences. I have a deep commitment to providing individualized care to help clients navigate life's challenges and achieve their personal goals. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have developed a passion for understanding the complexities of the human experience. My diverse experiences in various mental health settings have equipped me with the skills to connect with individuals from all walks of life. I believe in fostering a therapeutic environment that is safe, supportive, and empowering. My approach is person-centered, focusing on your unique needs and goals.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My role as a therapist is to collaborate with you to develop strategies for coping with challenges and building self-esteem. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust, empathy, and mutual respect. I am dedicated to creating a space where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts and emotions openly. I have many years of experience working with individuals struggling with eating disorder symptoms and diagnoses. Together we will develop a more positive relationship with food, exercise, and body image. In addition, my specialties include anxiety and OCD related disorders.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

The therapeutic process is a collaborative journey tailored to your specific needs. We will begin by establishing a therapeutic relationship and identifying your goals for therapy. I utilize various evidence-based techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, exposure based, and solution-focused therapy, to address your concerns. I am committed to providing you with the tools and support needed to achieve lasting positive change.
