Dr. Westbrook earned her Doctor of Psychology degree from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology in 2016. Her clinical background includes psychotherapy, psychological assessment, and work with adults with complex psychiatric presentations.

BrownSkinPsych welcomes adults of every background. As an African American psychologist, Dr. Westbrook values cultural understanding as part of individualized care. Your concerns, preferences, relationships, and lived experience are considered together, with respect for your goals and privacy.

Dr. Westbrook works collaboratively with each person to understand recurring patterns, clarify goals, and develop changes that fit daily life. Treatment may integrate cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, and trauma-focused approaches, with attention to insight, emotional regulation, coping, and relationships.

Care can address the demands of a career, leadership, caregiving, retirement, or a major life change. Learn about psychotherapy and psychological services or review insurance and private-pay options.
