About Alan
Alan Cochrane is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Utah with 35 years of practice. He brings a calm, grounded presence and a direct, warm style to sessions. He frames therapy as a shared journey where curiosity and courage lead to clearer self-understanding. Alan emphasizes compassion, honesty, and a sense of humor in the room.
Alan trained in counseling psychology with a focus on transpersonal approaches and has documented work in addiction studies and hypnotherapy. He has worked in many settings across his career and draws on that breadth when helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. He also supports those coping with grief, trauma, parenting strain, and self esteem concerns.
In sessions he aims to help people notice patterns, strengthen intuition, and build practical skills for day-to-day life. He uses talking, reflective exercises, and guided techniques to bring buried feelings into view. His manner is nonjudgmental and often direct, with room for humor when it fits.
People seeking help with addictive behaviors, intimacy-related issues, compulsive or impulsive tendencies, or career and life transitions may find his approach useful. He pays attention to attachment, family of origin issues, and persistent feelings of emptiness or guilt. Alan encourages steady, gradual change rather than quick fixes.
Outside work he is drawn to nature, hiking, and travel, which influence his relaxed, observant style. Prospective clients should be prepared to reflect honestly and try practical steps between sessions.
