Darren Porter, LPC — Therapist in Wisconsin

Hi there, I'm Darren!

I am passionate about helping individuals be the best versions of themselves. I create a supportive space where you can explore challenges, build on your strengths, and move toward the life you want to live.

My focus

I deal with adults 18+ struggling with anxiety, PTSD, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder.

My approach

My therapeutic approaches include DBT, CBT, Person-centered therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I draw on these frameworks to tailor our work together based on what resonates most with you and supports your unique goals.

My communication style

My communication style is active listening, inspire hope and confidence, easy going, like having a conversation with someone you trust.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always been passionate about helping others by actively listening to them and inspiring them to reach their potential. My guiding belief is: don't let life happen, make life happen.

My goals for you

I work with clients to set S.M.A.R.T goals that reflect what matters most to you. Together as a team, we'll create a plan and I'll motivate and support you every step of the way toward reaching those goals.

Our first session

In our first session, my focus is on building trust, creating a good connection, and showing empathy. I want you to know that you matter and that I'm invested in helping you reach your best outcomes.
