The PTSD cure!

I have been to many therapists and psychologists, but none as skilled and effective as Dr. Brooks. This is a very straight forward, simple therapy, and I am very impressed at how fast I felt the results. 100% recommend for anyone who is suffering!

Chris Padron

Dr. Brooks and EMDR greatly improved my mental health. It was refreshing to treat the issue without months and months of talk therapy. I would highly recommend Dr. Brooks’ approach to treating PTSD and anxieties.

Chettie and Michael Greer

I started seeing Dr. Brooks for EMDR therapy after experiencing many challenges and stressors. He has been such a huge part of my journey. I feel more like myself and am back to my normal routine. If you’re on the fence, I say try it and see it first hand change your life. He’s a great doctor and makes therapy enjoyable. I 100% recommend Dr. Brooks.

Like a different new person and am ever so grateful for finding Dr Brooks - please contact him if you are struggling with PTSD or any trauma - he had changed my life 🥰

Jodi Jacobson

Dr. Brooks has been very helpful in working through a lot of things in my past. Basically, PTSD symptoms went away or were greatly lessened like nightmares, awful sleep, and "triggers". I highly recommend anyone struggling with stuff like this to see Dr. Brooks at Dakota Trauma Therapy.

GrizzlyOne95

The results I got from EDMR and Dr. Brooks far exceeded what I thought possible. If you have PTSD or past emotional trauma than I highly recommend you try Dakota Trauma Therapy and Dr. Brooks, I suffered needlessly for far too long when real help was a call away.

Northern Exposure

EMDR therapy helped me a lot. May seem simple, I was skeptical at first, but it really works.

Cat Sillitti

When I started therapy, I thought there was no way this treatment would be helpful. After 6 appointments, I can’t think of any trauma that needs to be treated. Thank you, Dr. Brooks. You were amazing.

Mary Nieuwsma

Dr. Brooks has been treating me for PTSD for years. His EMDR Therapy has allowed this veteran to once again sleep through the night and avoid daytime panic attacks. I highly recommend him.
