About Derron
Hi, I am Derron Johnson Jr. As a licensed therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families navigating complex emotions and circumstances. My approach centers on helping my clients address challenges like stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues/ conflict, and personal growth, to name a few. I am passionate about cultivating a safe, supportive, and clarifying atmosphere for my clients. I have a strong background training in psychology that allows me to understand and conceptualize your presenting concerns and use practical counseling skills to help build insight, develop coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. It can be hard to see our way out of the darkness of anxiety, depression, and the like. That's where therapy can be helpful. I'm a certified trauma-informed therapist (in CPT) and utilize evidenced-based approaches, including DBT, CBT, and ACT as needed. Let me be your light and way out of darkness, towards the life that's meaningful to you. Therapy is a transformative process that starts with safety. My approach is built on empathy, authenticity, and unconditional acceptance. Allow me to help you move towards the life that's meaningful to you. I am here to partner with you to uncover hidden emotions, process and accept your truths, and support you in making meaningful changes. Whether you're struggling with relationships and confidence, suffering from anxiety, depression, or trauma, or working through personal transitions, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you. Together, we'll build an authentic connection that leads you to the meaningful life you desire. Read more Show less
