About Andromada Brooks

Hello, Thank you for taking the time out to get to know me a little. My name is Andromada Brooks. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Addictions Professional in the state of Florida with over 7 years of experience . I love what I do for a living, it’s my passion. I have had the pleasure of working in a variety of settings and with a culturally diverse clientele. My experience has given me the opportunity to work with individuals, couples and families dealing with a broad range of concerns such as life changes, self esteem, anxiety, addiction, trauma, domestic violence, depression, relationship issues and grief/loss. Just to name a few.

My therapy style is compassionate, empathetic, non judgmental and a safe place for you to provide yourself permission to be vulnerable. I believe that setting the foundation for healing and empowerment begins with building the therapeutic relationship where we will establish trust and healing. When working with clients, I see myself as a guide on their journey. I am here to assist them in addressing , exploring and making changes to whatever is causing the problems or hurt in their lives. I will challenge their thinking and other patterns that are not currently serving them in their time of healing and growth. As a guide on their journey, I will empower and encourage them to break the chain of fear, cope with their truth and brighten their light on the pathway to healing. I utilize evidence based therapy approaches and various techniques. However, this will be chosen based on the client’s needs.

It will my pleasure to assist on your journey , let me know if I can be of service to you.

“Andromada is so supportive in every way. she challenges my intrusive thoughts and always is there to give me guidance when asked. I have never had a therapist who i’ve felt so comfortable with and meets all my needs. If you are looking for a therapist I would 110% recommend her.”

“Andromada empowers me to be my best self every session, lifting me up and giving me the tools to challenge my struggles on my own. She challenges me to do better when I let my anxiety have the reins. She is truly the best therapist I could’ve ever asked for. Betterhelp changed my life for the better the day they matched me with Andromada.”

“I am so grateful to have Andromada as my therapist. She guided me through a very difficult time in my life with deep compassion and expertise. She is attentive to what I need in each moment and holds space in a supportive way. Andromada always challenges me to keep growing into my best self!”

“Completely changed my life. I genuinely wish everyone had an opportunity to have a therapist like Andromada.”

“I love Andromada’s therapy style. She makes it very easy to open up and really facilitates my personal growth. In the months I’ve been seeing her I have seen so much improvement in how I view myself and the world around me. I couldn’t recommend her more. She truly changed my life for the better.”

“Andromada is a wonderful therapist. She is compassionate, understanding and incredibly supportive. I always leave my sessions with her feeling better than I did before, and as though I’ve spent the time talking to a supportive and knowledgeable friend. She creates a warm and comfortable atmosphere where I felt safe almost immediately to share things with her - and I have never felt as though she judged me or was critical of anything I have had to say. I would recommend her very highly if you are looking for someone who will support you through your healing, growth and/or ambitions. I am nothing but grateful to have been connected with her.”

“Kind attentive and patient”

“Andromada is helping me overcome my anxiety. She provides a very safe and supportive space where I have felt comfortable to share many feelings that I had been bottling up for a long time. I strongly recommend her to anyone looking for help in overcoming their anxiety.”

“Andromada has helped me a lot in understanding myself and my anxieties better. She is very compassionate. After every session, I feel like there is a big weight lifted off my shoulders.”
