Hi, I’m Darren! I am a Licensed Master Social Worker and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I completed my education at Grand Valley State University where I obtained my master’s in social work. I also hold a bachelor’s in computer information systems from Sienna Heights University. My education has afforded me many opportunities to gain experience and skills to help assist others in their most vulnerable time. I have over 10 years of mental health and substance use disorder treatment experience. I specialize in evidenced-based practices such as Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.
Are you struggling with mental health concerns, drug and/or alcohol misuse, anger management or family issues? Have your attitudes, thoughts, emotions or behaviors gotten you involved in using a substance or limit you from reaching your full potential? Core Counseling, LLC will help you discover the method(s) to bring about change in your areas of need.
While my focus is on behavior, emotional, psychological, and social well-being, I also provide anger management therapy. I am a strong believer in self-determination, I understand the rights and needs for an individual to choose his/her own path and advocate for the individual’s choice.
