Alan Cochrane, LCMHC

Alan Cochrane is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Utah with more than 35 years of experience working with diverse populations across a variety of settings. He earned a B.A. in Psychology from the University of California, Irvine and an M.A. in Counseling Psychology with a transpersonal specialization from John F. Kennedy University, and he holds certifications in Addiction Studies and Clinical Hypnotherapy. He now resides in Saint George, surrounded by the Mojave Desert Southwest and the red rock landscapes of Snow Canyon and Zion National Park, and he enjoys travel, hiking, and exploring the natural world.

Inspired by the idea that becoming who we truly are is a deep personal journey, he approaches therapy as a collaborative exploration. He positions himself as a guide who supports people in turning inward to discover their inner truth and to develop an authentic sense of self. That process, he notes, requires courage, strength, and self-compassion, and it often involves recognizing both strengths and areas where new skills are needed.

His manner is warm, nonjudgmental, and direct, and he values humor as part of healing. He helps people bring shadow material into awareness so that fear loses its power, and he encourages the celebration of growth along the way. Throughout his work he emphasizes listening to intuition, cultivating self-trust, and fostering creative expression as ongoing parts of personal development.
