Great experience. Derek is patient, understanding, and he truly cares.
Chad K.Verified patient
I had my first session with Derek and was very impressed with his communication style. He clearly explained expectations for therapy, including both the positive and challenging aspects of the process. I appreciated how he helped connect some past situations to patterns of time loss and emphasized that therapy is a collaborative relationship rather than a one-sided process. I’m looking forward to continuing our work together.

Mr. Elder is very professional and explains the therapy process very well as someone who is new to it. He is very respectful and a fantastic listener. I recommend him if you are looking to get introduced to therapy.

Mr Elder was excellent. Great listener and very transparent when it came to how the treatment works. First time seeking therapy so he was extremely patient in explaining everything to me. Definitely looking forward to our future sessions.

Derek has been an amazing counselor to me over the last year. He is good at what he does using his knowledge and skills to help me through difficult situations that I have encountered in my life. He listens and challenges my thoughts and helps me to see a different perspective to help resolve any issue I am facing. He has taught me to not only look at the situation as a whole, but to also look internally (introspectively) to analyze why I am feeling the way that I feel. It has been a great tool to use when needing to work on a solution on my own and to prepare me for any future conversations with someone. He has also taught me several techniques to help me with any stressful, anxious or can’t get out of my head moments so I can move on with my day or get a restful night's sleep. I highly recommend him as he has changed my life, my thoughts and has made me a better person, partner, co-worker & friend.

My visit was awesome as usual. He is very patient and sincere and genuinely cars about his clients. He has helped me through a multitude of hard times and I have been seeing him for over 10 years now. Honestly, he has been my most trusted friend and advisor that I can always count on.
