Hi there, I'm Derrick!

I specialize in working with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I take a client-centered, collaborative approach to therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals. I'm here to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can be yourself.

My focus

I work best with teens, adults, and couples who are struggling with managing anxiety, substance abuse, life transitions, and those seeking support for self-esteem issues. Whether you're working through trauma, building coping skills, or exploring your personal goals, we'll work together to create goals that are achievable and empowering.

My approach

I use cognitive-behavioral therapy to help you identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns, giving you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Based on your needs, I may also incorporate trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and meditation.
