Getting to know Derek Anderson

IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $200 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. I'm Derek Anderson, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master's degree and experience providing individual, couples, and family counseling. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, anger, and personal growth. I especially enjoy working with men, professionals, leaders, couples, and individuals seeking a safe, supportive space to gain clarity, strengthen relationships, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful change. I also offer faith-based counseling for clients who desire to incorporate their Christian faith into therapy. My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative, using evidence-based methods such as CBT, DBT, person-centered therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I help clients manage emotions, improve communication, set healthy boundaries, and develop effective coping skills. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for meaningful growth and healing.
