About Imani
Hi, I'm the therapist behind this practice
I'm Imani Brooks, a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing body-based, trauma-informed care in Austin. Before this work I spent years watching talk-only therapy skip the place trauma actually lives — the nervous system. Training in Somatic Experiencing changed how I practice entirely: sessions that move at the body's speed, honor its defenses, and treat safety as the method, not the reward.
