Sarah Brooks

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


Hello prospective clients! My name is Sarah and I am a counselor with a collaborative, solution focused, and person-centered approach. I believe the best counseling happens when a client is actively involved in their treatment. I will work with you to establish what you would like to get out of treatment so that you may have the best experience possible. In my experience, counseling has the best results when we work as a team. My experience primarily lies in working with substance abuse, depression, anxiety, coping skills, anger management, self-care, self-esteem, relationship issues, and parenting. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I have conducted individual counseling group counseling, and family counseling. I am very passionate about what I do and would love to help you on your journey to become the best version of yourself!

Brianne Daubenspeck

Brianne Daubenspeck

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Chicago, IL


Welcome! I'm Brianne (many of my younger clients know me as Ms. Brie), founder of Imagination Grove Play Therapy.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist with more than 20 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families.

Throughout my career, I've specialized in helping individuals navigate anxiety, ADHD, autism, emotional regulation challenges, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, and social difficulties. My background as a school social worker has provided extensive experience collaborating with families, educators, physicians, and multidisciplinary teams to support children across home and school settings while also deepening my understanding of the unique challenges families face.

Whether you're seeking support for your child, yourself, or your family, I know reaching out for help can feel overwhelming. My goal is to provide a warm, welcoming space where every client feels safe, understood, and empowered to grow. I believe healing happens through connection, curiosity, and meeting each person where they are. Together, we'll build on strengths, navigate challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change.
