About Derrick

Derrick’s approach to psychotherapy is a person-centred, integrated way of practising mind/body health with a holistic sense that’s grounded by science. “My approach is dynamic, in that we will work together to discover what will work best in finding solace and long term solutions.”

Integrative and person-centered means Derrick will draw upon his extensive knowledge of psychology & psychotherapy to develop an evidence-based program that supports the client as a person, not as just someone with a diagnosis or condition. We are all different with complex lives, and therapy is about working within those conditions to provide support and long term solutions.

Derrick has spent over 10 years in college both studying and teaching subjects in psychology, behaviour, cognitive science and critical thinking at UC Berkeley and UC Dublin. During this time, Derrick also trained and taught yoga, qi gong, and somatic movement education. Derrick is fully trained and registered with the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) – Ireland’s only professional psychological body. Derrick’s credentials are also in line incoming CORU regulations, which is set to regulate counseling & psychotherapy in Ireland in the coming years.
