About Steven

Steven Brokob is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and trauma. He also supports clients dealing with mood disorders, ADHD, relationship or intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strain, and career or purpose questions. He speaks English and brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions.

Steven spent a decade in community mental health and several years at a crisis center doing community and emergency-room evaluations. He previously served in the United States Marine Corps and understands military and veteran issues including PTSD and traumatic brain injury. His background 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 uses a person-centered approach that focuses on identifying personal strengths and goals.

Steven draws on practical methods such as cognitive behavioral tools, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical behavior strategies, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness practices. He aims for a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients set the pace and priorities. He encourages people to try small changes and build routines that support wellbeing.

How his approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It can help with anxiety, depression, and finding purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns and everyday habits. Mindfulness therapy centers on present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and calm the mind.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration may combine ACT, CBT, mindfulness, or person-centered conversation depending on what feels helpful.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people practice new habits in their everyday settings and then talk through what worked. Licensed professionals can help adapt exercises and skills to routines so progress fits day-to-day demands.
