About Naomi

Naomi Brookes works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem and depression by using evidence-based therapeutic techniques and collaborative discussion. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

Naomi offers practical ways to talk through difficult feelings and everyday problems. She helps people make sense of life changes, including issues encountered during perimenopause. Sessions focus on clear goals, coping strategies and gradual steps to feel more able to manage day-to-day demands.

Her work also covers areas such as abandonment and attachment issues, chronic pain, illness and disability, and the emotional effects of divorce and separation. Naomi addresses feelings of emptiness, isolation and low self-worth, and she supports people dealing with guilt, shame or the aftermath of sexual assault and abuse.

Naomi draws on approaches that are evidence based to help with stress, post-traumatic stress symptoms and seasonal affective difficulties. She will discuss methods and decide with the client which fit their situation. The emphasis is on practical techniques and reflective dialogue rather than on technical labels.

Sessions are conducted in English and she practises in the UK. Naomi uses a subscription model for sessions which can be cancelled at any time. To start, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How evidence-based approaches work in online sessions

Naomi uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions and to offer practical help. One commonly used approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing alternative ways of thinking and coping; this is useful for stress, anxiety and low mood. Another approach emphasises gradual behaviour change and activity planning to lift mood and build confidence; it can help with depression and motivation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Naomi will discuss different methods and decide with the client which to try based on their goals and preferences. This collaborative planning helps set realistic steps and review progress together over time.

The practical benefit of online sessions is that they can fit into everyday life more easily, for example by avoiding travel or fitting a session into a work break. If you want to know which session formats are available, confirm the current options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can support steady progress through regular appointments and focused conversations without changing the basic content of therapy.
