Darren Cooper
Hi, I’m Darren Cooper—and if you’re a student feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just unsure of where to turn, I want you to know you’re not alone. College and early adulthood come with unique pressures, and I’m here to help you navigate them with clarity, compassion, and support.
As a licensed social worker based in Northeast Ohio, I offer telehealth sessions to students across the state. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care and a deep understanding of the social and emotional challenges that impact mental health. Whether you're facing academic stress, relationship struggles, identity questions, or life transitions, I’ll meet you where you are—with empathy, respect, and zero judgment.
Together, we’ll create a space where you can speak freely, explore what’s weighing on you, and begin building tools for healing and growth. Your privacy is always protected, and your voice will always be heard.
