Original team profile sourceIN THEIR OWN WORDS
Meet Darrel.
Hi, I’m Darrel! I’m a graduate-level counseling intern pursuing my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of Houston–Clear Lake. I believe no one should have to face life’s challenges alone, especially during times when everything can feel overwhelming and there’s little room to breathe.
My approach to therapy combines Person-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and comfortable being yourself. Together, we can also develop practical skills and strategies to support your personal growth and help you work toward the goals that matter most to you.
I have extensive experience working with adolescents and young adults from diverse cultural backgrounds, as well as supporting individuals of all ages experiencing immediate mental health crises. My experience includes helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, emotional regulation difficulties, and other life stressors.
If you’re ready to begin therapy, I look forward to supporting you as you work toward becoming the best version of yourself.
