Hi! My name is Brooke Davidson. I enjoy helping people heal and better understand themselves and others. I love this job and I make sure my clients can feel that during our sessions. All of my clients say that they don't feel like they're in therapy when they work with me because they feel so comfortable and relaxed.

As a Psychiatric and Family Nurse Practitioner, I have dedicated over eight years to improving patients' lives. My journey has taken me through various healthcare settings, from hospitals to community organizations around the world. I specialize in caring for adults, women, and children, ensuring that all my patients receive accurate assessments and the best possible care. During my time with Advance Health and Kettering Health Network, I focused on preventing hospital readmissions and managing chronic diseases. I have a passion for educating patients and their families, making complex health information easy to understand. My experience also includes supervising rehabilitation therapy and enhancing patient recovery. Beyond my professional work, I am active in community services. I volunteer with the Springboro Community Assistance Center and advocate for addiction care policies that provide equitable access to high-quality treatment for all. I bring compassion, expertise, and a commitment to making a difference in every patient's life. Your well-being is my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

I have personally overcome a wide range of challenges, from growing up in a dysfunctional home and struggling with weight, stress, and depression to dropping out of high school, being a homeless teen mother, and losing a son to gun violence. I’ve navigated toxic friendships, abusive relationships, and survived a narcissistic marriage, all while raising a son in the LGBTQ community and often feeling like I didn’t belong or fit into the world around me. In addition to my extensive academic studies in nursing, psychiatry, metaphysical science, nutrition, and functional medicine, I am also a Certified Advanced Mastery Life Coach and Transformational Health Coach. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with thousands of individuals from all walks of life. Each has faced their own unique challenges, and through my coaching, I’ve helped them find balance in their mind, body, and spirit. Together, we’ve unlocked their potential to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives, build stronger relationships, and learn how to thrive—not just survive.

Stuck in a cycle of stress, anxiety, or frustration? Struggling to stay focused, find balance, or manage emotions? If you’re ready to take back control of your mental health, understand what’s really going on, and start feeling like yourself again — I will help.

Taking the first step can feel difficult, but I’m here to provide support in a compassionate, judgment-free space. *Treatment philosophy My treatment philosophy centers around compassion, collaboration, and patient empowerment.

"I am a dedicated psychiatrist serving children, adolescents, and adults in Champaign, Illinois. I offer both in-person and virtual consultations starting from age 3, and I am licensed in both Illinois and Ohio. My mission is simple: to help my patients not just survive, but truly thrive. When working with young children, my focus is on minimizing the use of psychotropic medications unless absolutely necessary. I conduct a thorough 90-minute interview with both the child and their parents to gain a comprehensive understanding of their needs. If appropriate, I collaborate with the child’s therapists, school counselors, social workers, and teachers to advocate for their mental health within the educational system. I believe early intervention is crucial in addressing psychiatric disorders, often leading to the best outcomes and even full remission. For college students, I provide personalized psychiatric care aimed at enhancing emotional and cognitive functioning. Having immigrated to the U.S. during high school and attended UCLA for my undergraduate studies, I understand the pressures and stresses faced in competitive environments like UIUC. I specialize in supporting students from diverse cultural backgrounds as they adjust to the U.S. college system, and I am happy to collaborate with parents for additional support if they wish. With adult patients, I pay special attention to managing drug-drug interactions and the interplay between medical and psychiatric conditions. My aim is to improve productivity while minimizing the cognitive and metabolic side effects associated with psychotropic medications. I also believe in incorporating holistic and integrative medicine when appropriate. To ensure accessibility during challenging times, I maintain a few urgent care slots for after-hours and weekend appointments. I specialize in treating a wide range of conditions, including bipolar disorders, schizophrenia, PTSD, ADHD, insomnia, substance abuse, autism, OCD, eating disorders, psychosis, marijuana use disorder, alcohol use disorder, mood disorders, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, developmental disorders, fetal alcohol syndrome, treatment-refractory depression, anxiety disorders, cognitive disorders, dementia, cultural psychiatry, dysthymia, dyslexia, bedwetting, social anxiety, school refusal, nightmares, panic disorder, agoraphobia, specific phobias, intermittent explosive disorder, borderline personality disorder, dependent personality disorder, bipolar II, schizoaffective disorder, drug-induced akathisia, conversion disorder, video game addiction, internet addiction, fibromyalgia, sports psychiatry, and career guidance.
