Darren Freeman-coppadge

Darren Freeman-Coppadge, PhD, is a highly qualified psychologist dedicated to supporting adults who feel something is missing or are struggling with life's imbalances. He strives to help individuals become the person they truly wish to be while promoting healing, wholeness, and alignment with their authentic values and identities. Darren understands how life's challenges can leave people feeling out of control and disconnected from themselves. He recognizes that internal struggles are often intertwined with external systems such as relationships, communities, and culture. With a particular passion for working with marginalized populations, including LGBTQ+ individuals and young/emerging adults, he guides clients through meaningful introspection. Darren helps them explore their identities, roles, and their place within larger societal frameworks while addressing the overwhelming emotions that can create feelings of powerlessness. He specializes in adjustment and transition issues, mood and anxiety disorders, identity challenges (including LGBTQ+ and multicultural themes), and relationship dynamics. With extensive experience in the mental health field since 2005, transitioning from psychiatric clinical pharmacy to counseling psychology, Darren employs evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Known for his easy-going, approachable demeanor, he creates a safe and informal environment, allowing clients to pursue their goals at their own pace and on their own terms.
