Alan Cochrane

“Alan has been the best therapist I've ever had, he listens and goes deep, giving great advice for dealing with so many issues. He also makes me feel so confident in myself and after every meeting I feel motivated and energized.”

“Alan has very insightful things to bring forward. He reframed an old trauma in a way I had never considered. It was a real revelation. Thank you”

“Alan has helped me in the past, and now returning to better help I am more than confident that he can help me again. He's a great listener and is skilled in a plethora of methods to help clients reach their goals. Whether you're self-motivated or stuck in a rut, Alan is your man. No doubt about that!”

“Alan is very charismatic which I love. Great advice and has helped after just a couple sessions”

“Alan is an amazing therapist. He is incredibly smart with a great sense of humor which has really helped going into difficult issues. Over a short period of time he has helped me understand myself better and has given me so much insight into my relationships. I would highly recommend Alan as the best therapist I've worked with on Better Help.”

“I have been seeing Alan for almost three years - He has helped with so many different things, including a faith transition, divorce, new job, loved ones passing away, and most importantly, improving my relationship with myself and others. I love his style, because he is great at asking questions that make me come to my own conclusions. He speaks a lot of truths, challenges me, and shows genuine compassion. I am so thankful for him and the impact he has made on my quality of life.”

“Alan, thank you so much. You have been truly a guiding force for my personal growth at home and in my workplace. Your great personality alway brightens my day when we talk and you have a great way of explaining and unpacking situations that I’ve struggled with for years. <br /> Thank you for all the support.”

“Alan makes me laugh out loud! He has a way of bringing levity and light to heavy subjects. I find it tremendously charming and disarming. I feel safe telling Alan things I’ve not told anyone before. Alan shined a light on the trauma in my past and that illumination has become incredibly valuable to me as I navigate the present and consider the future. Alan has given me a vocabulary to describe and define my experiences with covert narcissists. Words are powerful. They give texture and meaning to shadowy thoughts and complex feelings. I’m a better person for the time Alan and I spend together and I am forever grateful that we connected.”

“Alan is an insightful, no-judgement, funny, wise, compassionate therapist. He goes really fast which I really liked because I felt I got a lot out of the sessions. As someone who left the faith I was raised in, he was very helpful. He builds you up, is realistic, likes to laugh, takes things seriously, and asks good questions. He is especially good for shy people if that is something you’re worried about. He is very smart and knows his stuff - he gave really powerful lessons, invites, and insights. I also feel I can move on from his advice and work on things by myself. Gives you confidence and the support you perhaps never got.”

“Alan is one of the most exemplary human beings I have had the pleasure to know. He knows exactly when to ask questions and when to listen. So much positive energy, and very down to earth. I have only had a couple sessions with him so far and the advice he has given me has provided me with so much peace in my every day life. Absolutely impeccable as a therapist and a person. I'm always excited for my next session with him!<br /> <br /> -Nate”

“Alan has been such a pleasure to talk to every week with his positive, supportive, and enthusiastic personality. He is also a great listener by asking insightful questions that opens up the conversation to something I never even reflected on. I was impressed at how much he remembers from each session while having multiple clients. I looked forward to talking to him every week, and it was also a positive way to organize and catch up with what I achieved throughout the week. I loved how his therapy sessions did not feel like a chore, but rather a gossip session (of course a professional one) about my own life. Sessions with him felt like a 101 lesson about myself. I have ADHD and tend to rush through my life with a sense of urgency—sessions with Alan have been a mindful time to stop and reflect on where I am and what I have achieved that I often don’t give credit to. It was a true form of self-care worth every penny. Alan gave me a gentle push to support my goal of becoming a stronger self by acknowledging my emotions. My communication skills have improved drastically through understanding my emotions; I am less reactive emotion-driven and my relationships have also improved. I gained confidence through his sessions. I am graduating from my session with him because I achieved my goal for now. He made therapy a fun thing which I think is an amazing style of his. I am very happy and impressed with myself to have gotten so much out of just four months! I cannot appreciate him enough. He is a true professional that I respect a lot. You’re very lucky if there’s an opening to become his client.”

“Alan has changed my life. He’s the best therapist I have ever had, and I love that better help brought us together. I feel like I’m getting so much more than therapy, I’m getting enlightenment”

“Alan did focus in on the issues at hand. I was able to know for sure that my feeling and thought were mostly the expected feeling that would occur during any of the issues. How we deal with and react to it counts.”

“Amazing therapist especially for those who are recently leaving the Mormon church he has a great understanding of the church and how much pressure it can put on a person. Very supportive of whatever I want to do. The first time I've actually liked my therapist”

“Alan is a truly marvelous person. He cares so much about me, and is so wise and empathetic. I can tell every time we speak that he truly wants to see me become the best version of myself. He’s inspired me to take the lead in my own life, and it seems like every week, my quality of life improves.”
