01About Jalesah

Jalesah Brooks is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, relationship concerns, and major life changes. She meets clients where they are and offers straightforward support for next steps. If you’re nervous about starting, she recognizes that first step takes courage and aims to make the process manageable.

Brooks uses a client-centered approach that focuses on what matters most to each person. She listens first, then works with clients to set clear, realistic goals.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more helpful habits. For relationship concerns she draws on the Gottman Method to look at communication and interaction patterns. That approach breaks down small behaviors that matter in everyday life and helps people try different ways of relating to each other.

Sessions are conversational and task-focused when appropriate. Clients can expect to leave with simple, practical strategies they can try between meetings. Brooks brings eight years of experience as an LPC in New Jersey to guide that work.

She conducts sessions in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

04Online support

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's priorities and responding with respect and empathy. Online sessions using this approach begin with the client's needs and move at their pace, which helps when facing stress, low mood, or low confidence.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online work this often means setting small, doable homework tasks and reviewing them together during video or chat sessions to change unhelpful habits that feed anxiety or depression.

The Gottman Method looks at everyday interaction patterns in relationships and teaches simple skills for clearer communication. When relationship issues are a concern, the therapist can use these ideas in individual online sessions to practice new ways of relating and to plan experiments clients can try between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as needed based on what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people watch expressions and do more in-depth discussion. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life.
