Hello, my name is Darlene and I have been working for over 13 years as a licensed mental health counselor helping people with a wide range of issues. I have worked in multiple settings including Emergency Room Crisis Counseling, inpatient psychiatric units, and outpatient private practice. I have had the fortunate opportunity of helping people from different social and cultural backgrounds. On the personal front, I am a single mother of two children and I understand the difficulties of trying to manage multiple tasks at the same time without becoming overwhelmed. Having faced personal challenges in life has allowed me to become more empathic to each individual’s experiences and obstacles. My goal is to help you on your journey to become the person you want to be. We will work together to find relief of your symptoms and ascertain the root causes of your problems. I firmly believe that therapy should be a holistic experience and the knowledge and skillset you gain in it will serve you well long beyond our time together. My approach is client-centered. I use and rely strongly on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based techniques in my practice and I value my client’s input and encourage active feedback as to how the therapy is going. I encourage you to invest in your health by proactively seeking help with your thoughts, emotions and behaviors. Please contact me to embark on your journey of self-awareness, and I will advocate for you all along the way. My office is a safe zone, free from judgment. It’s a place where together we’ll achieve your ultimate wellness. Therapy should be a holistic experience. When working with adults, my approach is client focused. With children and adolescents, I’ve found that they open up and relax with play and expressive arts. With 15 years of experience in outpatient settings and emergency room crisis departments, I have worked with patients from all walks of life. That environment demanded I remain calm and build rapport quickly. My experience in crisis enables me to recognize when someone needs additional help. I am also skilled providing grief counseling.
