About me

I have been employed as a Counselor since 2007. Since this time, I have supported many individuals and families obtain identified goals. Prior to entering the field of counseling, I worked as a Social Worker. As a Social Worker, I had the opportunity to nurture professional qualities that have aided in my transition to counseling.

Developing trusting relationships is the foundation of a positive counseling experience. I recognize and embrace the uniqueness in each of my clients. Although I practice from a theoretical background that includes person-centered and cognitive-behavioral models, I tailor my approach to address individual client needs. My counseling style is warm, accepting and encouraging.

Each of us has the capacity for personal growth. As we move through our lives, there are often moments when we feel lost, alone or uncertain about our future. Therapy is a wonderful opportunity to receive guidance and support. I have been successful in assisting children, adolescents and adults in this journey.

She's good, she listens well and is willing to express things in a different way if you didn't understand them.

Darcel is the type of therapist that everyone dreams of finding. Good humans are in short supply and good mental health support seems even harder to find. And yet, I was instantly matched with her and it was the perfect fit. She's always there whenever I need her and is able to support me and call me on my crap in a way that makes me want to grow and work through my stuff. Sincerely one of the best humans in existence.

Darcel is amazing! She is really insightful and supportive in all of the right ways. She has been really wonderful at listening to my experience, showing compassion and care for what I struggle with, and also challenging me to be accountable to my authentic self and to my goals in therapy.

My relationship with my counselor has changed my life. Darcel is professional, attentive and focused on my concerns. I couldn’t imagine going back to my life before counseling. It is the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.
