Brenda Cochran

Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to visit. Seeking support takes courage, and my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely heard. My approach is client-centered and integrative, meaning I consider the whole person—your emotional, spiritual, physical, and relational wellbeing. ​While I specialize in trauma and recovery, my work also supports individuals navigating many of life’s challenges including relationship struggles and various betrayals, boundaries, life transitions, and spiritual issues around faith, disappointment, hurt. Together we explore what is happening in the present, where you want to go in the future, and when helpful, how past experiences may be influencing your current life. ​My style is collaborative, straightforward, and solution-focused. I believe therapy should be meaningful and practical. Rather than focusing solely on diagnosis or pathology, I take a salutogenic approach—the belief that people possess an innate capacity for healing, resilience, and growth. Even in the face of adversity, wellness is possible. ​As someone who has personally experienced trauma, I understand the courage it takes to begin the healing process. My priority is establishing safety, trust, and rapport, allowing therapy to move at a pace that respects your readiness emotionally, spiritually, and somatically. I am passionate about contributing to a more compassionate understanding of mental health and the healing process. At the same time, I remain mindful of the potential for re-traumatization and the importance of working in ways that honor your boundaries and autonomy. ​Whether you are seeking personal healing, navigating a difficult season, or pursuing greater clarity and wellbeing, therapy can be a powerful place to begin. ​Please visit my website at www.zoeintegratedhealth.com for additional information about me.
