About Derricia

Derricia Walters is an LMHC who brings four years of clinical experience to her practice in Indiana. She blends a person-centered ethic with practical therapy tools to help clients identify strengths and move toward measurable goals.

Background and approach

Her training and approach prioritize collaboration, teaching skills and strategies to manage stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem challenges, depression, and ADHD-related concerns. Her work often incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques alongside mindfulness practices to target thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Derricia pays attention to patterns such as impulsivity, isolation, workplace difficulties, panic and phobic responses, and financial stressors, and she adapts interventions to the issues brought to sessions. The emphasis is on supporting clients through problem-solving and emotional regulation while honoring each person’s narrative and cultural context.

Clients can expect a respectful, strengths-based stance that balances empathy with skills training. Derricia welcomes people who want to reduce distress, improve coping, and better align daily habits with personal values and goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Many clients find practical skills and present-moment awareness helpful, and Derricia often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and workplace stress. She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies that teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for managing strong emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to clarify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what resonates and what produces progress. This allows treatment to evolve according to needs and preferences rather than assuming a single method up front.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for fitting sessions into busy schedules or when in-person visits are not possible. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations, allowing continuity of care and multiple ways to engage with skills practice and therapeutic support.
