Welcome! My name is Dr. Brooke Morse-Karzen. I have a doctorate in clinical forensic psychology and completed fellowships in both forensic and neuropsychological assessment and treatment. I believe that good, life-changing therapy stems from the connection between the therapist and the client. I strive to create a space marked by openness, curiosity, warmth, and, of course, humor. For me, symptoms are indicators of where things may need to shift or where there are patterns present in our lives that are no longer serving us. I take a collaborative approach where we work together to better understand your symptoms and identify ways to shift into ways of living that serve you better.

I blend modern dynamic theory, neuroscience, and trauma-informed approaches in my practice. My areas of focus are with those experiencing anxiety and/or mood related symptoms, relational difficulties, and those working on healing past trauma. I also have a background in working with survivors of domestic violence and abuse in childhood. I tend to work best with those looking to better understand themselves and their symptoms and make active changes in their lives.
