Thank you for taking the time out to view my profile. Finding the right therapist to meet your individual needs is a very important step and I am hopeful that I will be able to assist you. I find great passion in assisting my clients in meeting and surpassing their full potential.
After I obtained my Bachelors degree in Psychology, I continued my education and received a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am licensed in multiple states, a National Certified Counselor, a Certified Clinical Supervisor, a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, and a Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider. I have experience with working with individuals of all ages, ethnicities, races, religions, sexual orientations, and genders.
Although I use multiple counseling techniques (Narrative Therapy, Person-Centered, Solution Focused, etc) in order to meet my client's individual needs, my work with clients is primarily from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy perspective. I believe that the connections between rationality and emotion as well as mind and body are essential in accomplishing behavioral change through logical thinking. Becoming more aware of damaging automatic thoughts and acquiring the ability to revise cognitions impacts one’s behaviors and ultimately may lead to positive change. In addition, I hold a great appreciation for the unconscious and the power it has over one’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The intimate process of making the unconscious conscious is a fundamental step toward growth, development, and change. Being able to recognize how unresolved conflicts from the past influence the present and manifests in unhealthy cyclical patterns gives one the power and confidence to take control.
It is my belief that therapy is an intense, engaging, rewarding, and collaborative process. One of the main purposes of therapy is for one to gain a deeper understanding of self by exploring personal experiences, perspectives, and expectations. Regardless of the presenting issue, I provide my clients with a high level of respect, honesty, and genuineness. After successful completion of therapy, it is my hope that my clients will be able to incorporate what will be presented throughout therapy sessions into multiple life circumstances.

I was supposed to have my second session with Farah this week, but she did not respond at the start of the session and I have not heard from her in 5 days.

She is a great therapist. Always down to listen when I just need to talk. She makes me actually process the emotions I’m feeling at the time instead of just keeping them all bottled up. I know it’s always okay to get angry or even cry without being judged no matter how little or big the problem is.

Farrah is lovely to work with, I feel within in such short time and conversing with her I’ve realized things about myself that have helped me grow and reach my personal goals I initially had when starting therapy. She has a great energy and would recommend her to others who seek help with relationship patterns.

I always feel extremely calm after talking with Farah. Her suggestions provide a POV that I never considered, which is extremely helpful to me in understanding, accepting and working through my feelings. I highly recommend Farah.
Written on Mar 14, 2022 after therapy with Farah for 5 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and anger management
Farah is the best! I was very nervous when I started therapy because it was my first time, but Farah has made sure that the experience has not only been educational but incredibly beneficial to me. She listens to understand rather than listening to respond, which has been helpful to me when working through some tougher issues. She tailors each session to what I need to focus on and she never tries to do more than I’m comfortable with. We always have fun in our sessions, which I did not know was possible with therapy.
Written on Mar 13, 2022 after therapy with Farah for 1 year and 10 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes
Farah is the best! I don’t mean good, I mean the best! First, I am a therapist myself so when I was seeking a therapist I was kind of picky and tried a few others first. When I started working with Farah I was so impressed. She has a great ability to know when to listen and when to make a suggestion and her suggestions and interventions are spot on. She seems to genuinely care and you can tell she really puts her heart and soul into her work. She’s relatable and makes things feel comfortable and easy but is also efficient. I feel like I’ve made months of progress in just a few short weeks and found fresh motivation where I had been lacking for months if not years.
Written on Jan 24, 2022 after therapy with Farah for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and coping with life changes
Farah is a truly fantastic counselor! I love that she puts an emphasis on psycho-education as it helps me understand my own experience better. She is very friendly and a natural at drawing out any issues that you may not even realize are plaguing you. In our short time together I have made a surprising amount of progress! She also makes sure to dive right into coping mechanisms for whatever is bothering you, which is KEY. I am very thankful that I was matched with her and would recommend her services to anyone!

I am so thankful to have Farah in my life. I've used app-based therapy in the past and it's been helpful but she is such a good fit for my needs that it makes a world of a difference. There's so much value in feeling listened to and respected. I welcome her guidance and look forward to the research articles she shares periodically for further growth.

She is an amazing angel. So calming and kind and patient and accepting. As this is my first time in counseling I think I lucked out with her. As a queer person too, finding a counselor is so intimidating based on all the horror stories you hear but Farrah is so accepting and truly wants me to be comfortable in my own skin.

Farah has been amazing so far in the few short weeks I have been working with her. I already feel changes in myself that I have strived to achieve for years. She has also given me the tools to succeed in the long run and exercises to help me when needed
Written on May 18, 2021 after therapy with Farah for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, and self esteem
I reached a point in my life where it felt like I hit rock bottom. I was depressed due to losing my job and having issues with my loved ones. I felt stuck and I didn't know what to do to become better.
It was my first time ever enrolling in counseling, so I was very inexperienced with what to do. During my first interactions with Farah, I was feeling so many emotions that I could not process and figure out the root of my depression, so I typed out all the negative feelings I was experiencing, and all the issues and struggles I was going through. Farah was very patient and very understanding and she was able to organize everything that I was feeling and pinpoint the root of the problem. She was very reassuring that I will be okay and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. She was there for me whenever my feelings were overwhelming.
Farah helped me get through a very dark and difficult time in my life. I am very thankful that she was there for me and was able to help me process and understand my emotions and help me figure out a way to move forward. Now I can happily say that I have overcome my depression and I feel reassured that Farah can help me out whenever I feel lost.
Although I have moved past my depression, I continue to be enrolled with Farah just to be prepared in case I face any more difficulties with my emotions.

Farah really listens, and she seems to pick up on what is left unsaid, which is surprising and helpful. She offers positive support and tips that I’m using in day to day life. So far, even just talking things out with her and using the tools she is providing, I’m feeling more confident in myself.

I started talking to Farah at the beginning of 2020, and she helped me unpack so much of what was bringing me down daily without any judgement whatsoever. She is attentive and knows exactly what questions to ask. I'm so thankful we had started our communication before Covid hit and maintained it throughout. I feel equipped to move on now, but I will miss her!

I’ve been working with Farah for a couple months now and have really appreciated her presence during this difficult times. She’s really listened to my needs and provided good exercises to help me cope with my anxiety and accountability to make better decisions on my own behalf.

I’ve already made progress in curbing my addiction and finding peace in places I’ve been searching for it my entire life. I’m so grateful I got paired with her.

Farah is really a great therapist. The first session I had with her, I immediately felt a connection. Her tone is very warm and she always listens to what I'm saying and helps me unpack things. I've been in therapy for a long time and she is definitely one of the best I've had. I have a really intense job and she is always patient with me on completing the homework and responding to her. I feel like I have a lot of great resources now to work with. One thing about BetterHelp is that the sessions are only 30 minutes so getting on the background information and forming a relationship takes a while in the beginning. However, Farah is really responsive when you message her.

Farah Westbrook is the best! Very qualified and gifted in her craft.
Written on Aug 14, 2020 after therapy with Farah for 3 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue
I first started working with Farah in mid to late January of this year, so roughly a month and a half before covid-19 really hit the U.S. I was already dealing with depression and anxiety at the time from what I could tell, and the pandemic has only made it worse, as I'm sure it has for others with similar struggles. To provide some context, this is only my second time working with a therapist. My first experience was lackluster and frustrating, as I'd already been adamantly opposed to therapy for myself in the first place. So when I was initially paired with Farah, I was still very skeptical in the beginning and my expectations, frankly, were not high. Since then, she's proved to be kind, consistent in checking in even when I'm not — during a pandemic at that — and genuine. Even more importantly though, through working with her, I feel like I'm finally able to start unpacking and trying to make sense of the negative experiences and issues I've had, but stifled and bottled up for years. She hasn't ever been judgmental, which was a general concern of mine with therapists, and she's actually helped me begin to understand the "why" behind my struggles. Not only that, but she also provides educational resources with both explanations of common struggles people may have/why they may have them and practical methods/strategies that can be used to help remedy them in addition to the therapy itself. Overall, being in therapy itself is still a mental/emotional adjustment for me, but I feel optimistic that with Farah's help, I'll come out better than when I entered it. Please don't hesitate to book a session with her — she's great and really works to ensure you're getting the most you want out of therapy. I daresay, you'll be glad you did.

Farah is a kind and gentle counselor who's expertise and professionalism comes through clear to give a sense of calm and confidence with me as her client. I have never had the sense that Farah makes assumptions about me or what I am feeling and instead finds ways to pose questions that strike at the core of what can oftentimes feel like a swirling dust storm of thoughts and emotions. I would certainly recommend Farah to others seeking support with working through their feelings and finding healthy solutions.

Farah has been a terrific anchor during a rocky and lonely time in my life. It helps immensely to know I have someone in my corner, who doesn't just do the basic validating I need, but also challenges me to try new approaches to the same old problems. Her wisdom is what makes her a true gem of a counselor. Nearly every session, she has a new perspective or idea that I hadn't thought about before (and I think about everything a lot!). I'd highly recommend working with her.
