About Darrell
Darrell Clarke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 22 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, and rebuilding self-esteem. He aims to create a calm, direct space where clients can talk through what matters most to them.
Darrell uses practical, talk-based methods to address daily struggles. He helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try new behaviors, and strengthen communication skills.
How Darrell works
He also works with deeper issues like attachment, abandonment, and patterns linked to codependency or avoidant personality traits. Sessions often include mindfulness exercises and values-based work to help people make clearer choices. Cognitive-behavioral techniques are used to target anxious thoughts and avoidant responses.
Client-centered ideas guide how sessions are paced, with the client’s priorities shaping each meeting. He commonly helps people facing divorce or separation, dealing with infidelity, or coping with fatherhood-related stress. Other areas he addresses include jealousy, guilt and shame, forgiveness, and problems with control or dependency in relationships.
Darrell describes therapy as a collaborative process. He asks straightforward questions, offers concrete tools, and supports gradual change. People who want practical steps and honest conversation tend to do well with his style.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values even when emotions are tough. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life changes. It tends to help with anxiety, low self-esteem, and getting unstuck from repeating patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. That may mean mixing ACT, CBT, and client-centered listening so sessions address both immediate problems and longer-term patterns.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people talk face-to-face and use visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or work better when bandwidth is low. Live chat and text-based messaging allow quick check-ins, ongoing reflection, or shorter exchanges between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling daily life.
