Dr Jhanille Brooks
Psychologist
Dr Jhanille A. Brooks is a Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counselor with ten years experience in the field. A mental health advocate and lobbyist, she is passionate about building awareness on the importance of being mentally healthy and is keen to see greater improvement in the treatment, care and support for the mentally ill.
She was awarded the prestigious Fulbright Scholarship to pursue Masters level studies in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling at the University of South Florida. Her professional experience spans work in the areas of clinical therapy; counseling; behaviour change; mental health; substance misuse prevention and rehabilitation; homelessness; community development; HIV/AIDS; as well as working with at-risk groups, including youths.
Jhanille is passionate about working to promote positive behaviour change in persons and gives of herself outside of work hours to several initiatives and groups, including the Jamaica Fulbright Alumni Association, Mensana Mental Health Support Group and the Jamaica Mental Health Advocacy Network for which she is Chairperson.
Given all this, Jhanille still finds time to cater to her mental health (and her stomach), as she is an avid foodie, loves all types of music (and has no qualms about singing aloud, much to the dismay of bystanders), a dancer and is always willing to try new things and stays grounded in her Christian belief system.
Windsor Wellness Centre patients can be assured that they are in good hands with Dr Jhanille Brooks guiding them to good mental health.
