Shelby Cook, LISW-S, LCSW-QS

Bio

Welcome to Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc., a place where compassion, expertise, and innovation converge to provide you with the best mental health care. I am honored to introduce myself as the CEO and founder of this practice, and I am deeply committed to promoting well-being and healing in our community.

With a lifelong passion for mental health and a 6-year career dedicated to improving the lives of others, I founded Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc. with the vision of creating a safe and supportive space for individuals seeking to enhance their mental and emotional well-being.

My Journey

In the pursuit of healing and understanding, my professional journey commenced with a dedicated focus on treating trauma, specifically with a deep-seated interest in supporting veterans and active-duty service members. Witnessing these individuals’ unique challenges upon returning to civilian life ignited my passion for providing tailored, empathetic therapeutic interventions.

As my commitment to the mental well-being of those who serve grew, so did my desire to comprehensively grasp the complexities surrounding burnout, compassion fatigue, and secondary trauma – pervasive issues affecting not only the military community but individuals across various professions. Recognizing the critical intersection of mental health and organizational well-being, I made the intentional decision to advance my education.

Venturing into uncharted territory, I pursued a Doctor of Healthcare Administration, driven by the aspiration to delve deeper into the intricacies of burnout, compassion fatigue, and the broader landscape of corporate wellness. This academic pursuit became a profound undertaking, a bridge between the profound experiences of trauma therapy and the systemic challenges impacting professionals in various fields.

This journey has not only enhanced my clinical acumen but has also equipped me with a holistic understanding of the organizational dynamics that contribute to mental health struggles. Armed with this comprehensive knowledge, my mission extends beyond the therapy room – to address, prevent, and alleviate the burdens contributing to burnout and compassion fatigue.

My commitment remains unwavering: to advocate for the well-being of individuals who have faced trauma and to illuminate the path toward corporate wellness. Through this fusion of clinical expertise and administrative insight, I aspire to create lasting change, fostering environments where individuals can thrive mentally, emotionally, and professionally.

Join me on this odyssey of healing, understanding, and transformation as we collectively navigate the intricate interplay between mental health, trauma, and corporate well-being.
