Hi! My name is Derrick Collins and I am a licensed therapist that practices in Michigan and have been practicing for 30 yrs. I work well with the clients that are struggling with anxiety and depression. I like working with clients that are willing to put in the work because I am willing give you my best to help you.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In the first session, we are looking at the concerns that brought you to therapy and start setting goals. I give time for questions to make sure there is a clear understanding of the process we will embark on.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths are my ability to make sure that I understand the client and they are heard by their therapist and have some practical solutions that we can start implementing as soon as we can.
