Hi, My name is Darren Nguyen. I'm a professional licensed counselor. I have extensive experience supporting clients with self-esteem, anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, and emotional distress. Using ACT, CBT, DBT, and other evidence-based modalities. I take a compassionate, evidence-based approach to empower clients to navigate challenges, foster acceptance, develop coping skills for emotional regulation, and build resilience and lasting change. My journey to becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor is rooted in a lifelong passion for helping others. From a young age, I felt drawn to psychology, which led me get into the field, and work as a therapist in nonprofit mental health agencies. Over the years, I had the privilege of supporting adults navigating severe mental illness, trauma, and addiction. These experiences shaped my clinical approach, reinforcing my commitment to compassionate, evidence-based care. I am dedicated to helping individuals build resilience, develop coping skills, overcome life’s challenges and healing. My goal is to guide clients in rediscovering hope, purpose, and possibility. It’s truly an honor to walk alongside them on their path to healing and growth.
