Getting to know Darren Cooke

Hi there, I'm Darren! I am Darren Cooke, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 18 years of experience and a Master’s in Counseling from National University. I have vast knowledge in the field of mental health and have worked in various roles as a therapist, including crisis work. I provide services for individuals, couples, and families and can treat a wide range of mental health needs—from trauma, grief, anxiety, and depression to co-occurring disorders such as substance and alcohol use, as well as attachment issues related to relationships. My approach The modalities I work from include CBT, psychoeducation, trauma-based therapy, person-centered, strength-based, psychodynamic, family systems, and attachment styles. My focus I prefer to work with clients aged 16 and older due to the telehealth platform. As a generalist in treatment, I am comfortable addressing almost any struggle a person, couple, or family may be facing. My communication style I strive to provide a therapeutic environment that is safe for anyone and everyone to discuss their core issues while knowing their confidentiality rights will be protected. In session, I focus on being empathetic and gaining an understanding of a person’s, couple’s, or family’s needs by asking thought-provoking questions and actively listening. My journey to mental healthcare I began my journey almost 20 years ago to better understand how to have healthier relationships within my own family while being in a position to contribute to society and serve others. I now realize I truly enjoy seeing people and their families get healthier. My goals for you I utilize motivational interviewing and person-centered therapy to work with each client to determine their goals for therapy. Then I develop a roadmap to achieve those goals by creating a unique and individualized treatment plan.
