Brookdell & Beck Counseling Services

My name is Gail Brooklin Eaves, MS, NCC, LPC. I’m a licensed professional counselor in mental health and a national certified counselor. My private practice, Brookdell & Beck Counseling Services is located in Eden, North Carolina. We provide mental health services for individuals, couples, and families. We treat adults and children with Major Depressive Disorder, ADHD, Anxiety, and Panic Attacks.  

Although cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is the primary modality that I focus on, I use an eclectic psychotherapy approach to meet my client’s individual need. To illustrate, I provide clients with CBT tools to deal with events of everyday living and at the same time explore critical issues using an approach that is appropriate to meet the client-specific problems. The CBT approach has many advantages in multicultural counseling situations. Thus, if therapists understand the core value of their culturally diverse clients, they can help clients explore these values and gain a full awareness of their conflicting feelings.

As a therapist with a cognitive behavior orientation, I educate clients to focus on learning skills to deal with the problems of living. The client and I will work together to develop a detailed case conceptualization as a way to understand how each client views their world.

While being sensitive to each client’s struggle, I explore values and core beliefs in a nonjudgmental and emphatical environment to help clients to learn how to empower themselves by relying on their inner strength.
