Hi, I’m Derika, a therapist and Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW). I want to share something important with you about anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, and depression: you can fight them. Anyone who tells you otherwise is simply wrong. You don’t have to be a prisoner of your emotions or wake up every day unsure of how you’ll feel.
You don’t have to keep feeling like you’re “too emotional,” like no one really understands you, or like you’re overwhelmed by tears at the smallest things.
You can take back control of your life—and even become a shining example of resilience and success. My approach to therapy is all about empowering you. I’ll help you understand what’s going on inside, teach you how to interrupt those patterns, and offer practical tools and solutions to move forward.
Let me be honest—this journey isn’t always easy, and it does take hard work. But if you’re willing to commit, I truly believe the change you want is within reach.
Imagine waking up each day with a renewed sense of purpose, feeling seen and understood, and knowing you have the tools to handle whatever life throws your way. That’s the kind of transformation I’m here to support you in achieving.
If you’re ready to take that first step toward a better life, let’s take it together.
