Derek is a temporary limited licensed psychologist who graduated from Adrian College with his bachelor’s degree in philosophy and then from the Michigan School of Psychology with his master’s in clinical psychology.

He primarily works with adolescent, young adult, and adult populations struggling with issues such as:
Anxiety
Depression
Life Transitions
PTSD
