Getting to know Derrick Swandol

I am a clinical social worker licensed within the State of Maryland, as well as a State approved social work supervisor. I have over 20- years of experience working with children and adolescents, individuals with autism, and individuals with intellectual disabilities. Over the years, I have experience working in prison, psychiatric hospitals, behavioral health, as well as navigating the legal and educational systems throughout Maryland and West Virginia. I have over 10 years of experience assessing, developing, and successfully intervening in behavioral situations for youth and families. This experience has allowed me to develop competent skills as an individual, group, and family therapist. I am an ordained minister, with a biblical worldview, which grounds me in cognitive behavioral therapy. Additionally, I am a certified multi-systemic therapy therapist/supervisor, and specializes working with men in crisis, male adolescents, grief, individuals with intellectual disabilities, and autism.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
