I’ve had the privilege of working across the lifespan—supporting children and families in child welfare, working with adolescents, adults and older adults in psychiatric care, and guiding older adults and those with intellectual disabilities through life’s transitions. I meet you where you are, whether you need space to build trust or a structured plan to move forward. Clients come to me because I have a broad base of experience. I draw on that understanding to help you navigate your unique situation, guiding you toward clarity, resilience, and meaningful change.

My name is Dan Cooper, and I have been a licensed counselor since 2008. My path to this work was shaped early on by a year of public service with AmeriCorps, followed by time working in a transitional living program for homeless youth. Watching counselors help young people create meaningful, lasting change in their lives inspired me to pursue this work myself — and that sense of purpose has stayed with me ever since. My approach to counseling is fundamentally collaborative. I believe that you are the expert on your own life and circumstances. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to offer an outside perspective, help you clarify what you want, and support you in taking accountable steps toward your own goals. Together, we work as a team.

Hey, I’m Amber. I’m so glad you’re here! I know sometimes it can be pretty scary searching for a therapist who helps you feel known and understood. That is the kind of therapist I strive to be. Let me share a little about myself. I’ve been working in the mental health field for over 11 years now. I worked in community mental health for 10 1/2 of those years before deciding to branch into my own private practice. I grew up in a very conservative and religious family, even attending seminary, so I do know those beliefs well. It took me until I was 25 to be brave enough to live my authentic self as a gay individual, knowing it would cost me most of my family and friends. It hasn't been easy, but it has been worth it. It is now my desire to be the support for you that I never had as you live your own truth and tell your own story.

I have been working in the field for 8 years, and 5 as a clinical therapist. I love meeting people where they are at and understand change does not happen over night. I often try to mix humor, directness, and researched based interventions when working through life's challenges. When I am not in the office, I love to hike, rock climb, and do outings with my children.

Finding a therapist you can identify with, feeling heard & accepted can be a challenging feat. Therapists are not one size fits all. We are people with problems, just like you. I offer you over 20 years of experience in the mental health and substance abuse treatment world. I have an undergraduate degree in psychology (2001) and a graduate degree (2006) in professional counseling. With working 10 of those years in a hospital setting, I also have a decent handle on possible medical issues you might need to be referred for. After more life experience, I became a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2016 and opened my private practice. I can't tell you all the answers to life's problems, but together we can come to what the best decision will be for you in particular. Your goals and values are worth exploring. Your likes and dislikes matter. Your happiness is not selfish.

I believe therapy works best when you can show up exactly as you are — messy thoughts, quirky interests, big feelings, awkward humor, and all. As a neurodiverse therapist myself, I understand what it can feel like to navigate a world that often expects people to think, feel, and function in very specific ways. My goal is to create a space where clients feel genuinely accepted, understood, and safe enough to unmask and be themselves without fear of judgment. I grew up in Hawaii, and that upbringing shaped the way I connect with people — with warmth, openness, humor, and a strong belief in the importance of relationships and community. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in special education, which deepened my passion for supporting neurodiverse children, teens, adults, and families in ways that honor their strengths rather than trying to “fix” who they are. I’m also a mom to two energetic boys, so I understand firsthand the chaos, beauty, exhaustion, and constant learning that comes with parenting and family life. Outside of therapy, you can usually find me practicing yoga, spending time with my bulldogs, or trying to balance self-care with the realities of everyday life. In therapy, I strive to be real, collaborative, and compassionate. I love working with clients who feel different, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, misunderstood, or stuck trying to fit into expectations that don’t truly work for them. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, ADHD, autism, trauma, parenting stress, emotional regulation, or life transitions, I want therapy to feel like a place where you can breathe a little easier and feel more connected to who you really are.

I am focused on sex therapy, working with people who have gender or identity questioning issues, issues with partners, kink/fetish/swinging related issues, or problems or issues with sex and sexuality. I see individuals, couples, and polycules. I have both book learning and practical, lived experience in many sex/gender/sexuality issues. I am a member of the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists. I believe there is no single “right” way to experience desire, identity, or relationships. Therapy with me is an affirming, open-minded space where clients can explore who they are, what they want, and how to move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and self-acceptance. Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time in the wilderness, thrifting or browsing rummage sales, and sharing life with partners and five and a half cats.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
