Sometimes you want to write a lot of great words to emphasise the high level of skills shown by the person, but you cannot find the right words to express it fully. Mr Garrett Cooper is really talented, hard working person, who was a great example for me for those 3 years. And definitely will be. He has a soft manner of asking right questions and leading people to their paths. I highly recommend cooperation with Mr Garret Cooper.

More about Garrett

  • 8 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMHC

I'm a licensed clinical counselor in the state of Florida. As a clinician I have supported clients looking for assistance in managing their anxiety symptoms, depression, reducing the effects of previous trauma, coping with marital problems, adjustments in life, stress of parenting, and fighting through addiction. I have worked in both outpatient and residential care settings that have provided me with various clinical approaches and interventions.

I would describe my counseling style as warm, calming, and interactive. I believe in treating clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and the mindfulness approach of acceptance commitment therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

Congratulations on taking the first step towards your personal goals! I look forward to being part of your journey in self-growth and discovery.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Garrett is a true professional and I would highly recommend that you choose him as your therapist. He is simultaneously kind and to the point. This combination turned out to be perfect for me. Before Garrett, I had never lasted more than a session or two with a therapist before giving up on the concept. Over a course of 4 months, Garrett got me to open up and gave me the tools to tackle the problems I was facing. He both validated my emotions and challenged me to see things from different angles. Thank you Garrett for making me a better version of myself!

Garrett is an amazing therapist. I never felt embarrassed or judged for anything I wanted to talk about and my sessions with him were one of my weekly highlights for sure! He is super friendly and understanding but also asks the right questions at the right time, even if you might not want to hear them sometimes. If you keep an open mind, he gets you thinking towards new directions. I would definitely recommend him.

Garret is a great counsellor. He is respectful and kind though also not afraid to ask challenging questions. He’s given me the space that I need to think through my difficulties and is always positive and supportive. He’s easy to talk to and you get the sense that you are talking to a person, not a screen. I have definitely felt my mindset shift since starting sessions. I am also a mental health professional, and Garrett has been understanding and helpful to me in my professional role as well as in my personal life. I highly recommend him as a counsellor.

Garret is a great counselor and actually listens to your problems and provides personalized feedback. He also checks in if you haven't replied in a few days which is really nice.

Reviewed August 2020

Garrett has been really great at helping me through my depression / social anxiety. He's encouraged and supported my efforts to get out more and embrace the best parts of myself. I normally don't care about having a therapist of the same gender but for whatever reason I made that choice when signing up for BetterHelp and I'm so glad I did. Garrett has been willing to relate to me using his own experiences and identified with my feelings of being 'in a rut' and that has made a huge difference.

Reviewed March 2020

I've had my share of counseling sessions and counselors over the years, and Garrett has by far been the best fit for me. I find that he is very flexible in conversations, and can shift gears when he needs to so as to help address an issue. He is transparent about his approach to our conversations and is happy to abandon one approach for another. But the thing I like best about Garrett is that he's direct, personable, and practical. Though he's a highly qualified professional, you're talking to a real person here. I needed support with a difficult relationship and he's given me some great tools to use to manage that relationship. Excellent counselor.
