About Steven
Steven Brokob is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 12 years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, mood disorders, trauma and abuse, and codependency among other concerns. He works with adults who are dealing with relationship strain, grief, or struggles with substance use and mood regulation.
He draws on a person-centered style to help people notice their strengths and what matters to them. Sessions include talking through how thoughts link to daily habits and behaviors. He uses practical tools to help people build awareness of emotions and develop coping skills.
His background includes community mental health work and several years doing crisis evaluations in emergency settings. He also served in the United States Marine Corps and brings experience with military and veteran-related concerns such as PTSD and traumatic brain injury. His academic training includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University.
In sessions he often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness practices to support learning new ways of responding to stress. He also incorporates motivational interviewing when discussing substance use and readiness for change.
People can expect straightforward, conversational sessions that focus on clear skills and goals. The practical aim is to help someone change patterns that leave them feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from what matters to them.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice their values and take small actions that fit those values, even when difficult thoughts show up. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and the stuck patterns that come with codependent behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns like avoidance or rumination.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and what methods feel useful. Together they decide whether to focus on values-based work, skills for thinking patterns, mindfulness, or a mix of techniques.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also let a person choose whether to work on skills with guided exercises or to spend time processing events and decisions in conversation.
