Unconditional positive regard means being accepted and supported—no matter what. In a world where this kind of acceptance can feel rare, our work together can be a space where you feel truly seen and valued. I offer a compassionate, judgment-free environment where you can connect more deeply with yourself and others.


I work with clients navigating a wide range of experiences, including infertility, anxiety, relationship challenges, identity exploration, and transitions into and through parenthood. I also provide infertility consultations as requested by fertility clinics and doctors, following ASRM guidelines, to support individuals and couples using donor conception or gestational carriers.

You deserve a space to reflect, process, and reconnect with your inner strength. Whether you're grappling with uncertainty, grief, or simply seeking clarity, my goal is to walk alongside you with care and authenticity. If you're ready to deepen your connection with yourself and others, I would be honored to support you.

If you're an adult navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, substance use, burnout, or other challenges, and it feels like life doesn't leave room to sort it out, I'd like to help. I'm Dr. Cooke, a psychologist who works with people from a wide range of backgrounds, including active-duty service members, veterans, and dependents navigating demanding careers and environments.

Whatever brings you to therapy, my goal is to understand what's happening and work with you to find a way forward that fits your life.

I am a compassionate and dedicated behavioral health professional committed to providing high-

quality, client-centered care in a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment. My clinical

experience spans a wide range of behavioral health settings, where I have worked with

individuals facing mental health challenges, trauma, substance use disorders, crisis situations,

and co-occurring conditions.

I believe that therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, individualized, and grounded in

genuine human connection. My role is not to judge or direct, but to partner with clients in

identifying their strengths, overcoming challenges, and achieving meaningful personal goals. I

strive to meet each person where they are, respecting their unique experiences, values, and pace

of change.

Above all, clients should know that they can expect empathy, authenticity, professionalism, and

unwavering support throughout their therapeutic journey. My goal is to help individuals build

resilience, foster self-awareness, and create lasting positive change while feeling heard, valued,

and empowered every step of the way.
