Darrell Morris, LCSW

Darrell Morris is a US Army veteran whose service included deployments to Bosnia, Kosovo, and a 13-month deployment to Iraq, where he led a team of ten soldiers. He advanced rapidly through the enlisted ranks - from E-1 to E-7 in nine years - and later transitioned his leadership experience into a career in social work.

He earned a Bachelor of Social Work from Brescia University and a Master of Social Work from Walden University. He holds an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a credential that reflects advanced training and state licensure to provide clinical social work services.

For more than twenty years he has been engaged in counseling, mentoring, and coaching, and he spent six years working directly with youth and teens as a school social worker. He describes his practice as built on encouragement, inspiration, motivation, and hope - qualities he attributes to his faith and years of service and support to others.

Darrell integrates his military leadership background and social work training to help people manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, career questions, and major life transitions. He uses approaches informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and offers support across a range of focus areas including adoption and foster care, body image, chronic pain and illness, communication and control issues, family and fatherhood concerns, guilt and shame, life purpose, men's issues, midlife transitions, and military and multicultural matters.
