Hi there, I'm Derrick, a tribal member of the Tsalagi Nation and Depth Psychotherapist. My practice focuses on individuals, couples, and Native American/Indigenous peoples through culturally responsible practices. I specialize in helping others overcome depression, PTSD, childhood wounds, relationship issues, and navigating the complexities of life. I'm here to guide you through the depths of your past, helping you to mend old wounds and navigate the intricacies of relationships. If you're feeling overwhelmed by all of life's challenges, I am here for you.
My approach is deeply rooted in depth psychological and holistic perspectives, reflecting a blend of relational, psychoanalytic, emotionally focused, and trauma-informed methods. Grounded in empathy, understanding, and safety, I help clients navigate the complexities of life by promoting the freedom of selfhood, inner strength, curiosity, and communion.
My background and approach offer a therapeutic experience that honors the complexity of each individual's story while fostering profound growth and transformation. As a tribal member of a sovereign Indigenous nation, my life path is rooted in Indigenous culture. My practice is ideal for Indigenous peoples or those seeking to reclaim their Indigenous roots.

As a trauma informed and emotionally focused depth psychotherapist, I offer a longer term approach to counseling, where we work together to discover unknown patterns of your lived experience that cause you a great deal of suffering and dysfunction. In turn, we work together to integrate the past and future into the present moment, where the deepest levels of transformation arise.
