Great to meet you!

Hello, and welcome. My name is Darius Brittingham, and I am a mental health and substance abuse therapist with a Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges while building the skills needed to create meaningful and lasting change. My professional background includes working with individuals experiencing mental health concerns, substance use challenges, stress, anxiety, and life transitions. I strive to create a supportive, respectful, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and goals.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is solution-focused and collaborative, meaning we work together to identify strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and move toward the outcomes you want in your life. I primarily utilize evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. These approaches help clients build skills in emotional regulation, decision-making, problem-solving, and behavioral change.

What you can expect from me

I believe that each person has the ability to grow and move forward with the right support and tools. My goal is to empower clients to increase self-awareness, strengthen coping skills, and take meaningful steps toward improved mental health and overall well-being.

If you are looking for a therapist who will work with you in a practical, goal-oriented way while providing genuine support, I would be honored to be part of your journey.
