About Derrick

Derrick Woodbury is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with 16 years of overall experience in behavioral health. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, mood disorders including bipolar, grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger, and relationship or family challenges.

Background and approach

Derrick also supports clients dealing with parenting strains, compassion fatigue, process addictions, multicultural concerns, and issues related to sexual assault and recovery. His counseling style blends practical, evidence-informed methods with a collaborative, person-centered attitude.

Derrick frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and he draws on solution-focused and narrative techniques to highlight strengths, reframe stories, and set achievable goals. Motivational interviewing also informs his work when clients seek to make lasting changes but feel ambivalent about next steps.

Derrick holds LPC licensure with identifiers AR LPC P2212014 and GA LPC LPC013870 and has provided independent practice and contractor services across multiple settings. Sessions are offered online through a mix of video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging, and he helps clients tailor an approach that fits their life and treatment goals.

Approaches and Online Options for Practical Change

In online sessions Derrick commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps clients notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts and then test new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood instability. Solution-focused therapy centers on immediate strengths and goals, encouraging brief, actionable steps that can relieve stress and move a person toward clearer functioning.

Choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic collaboration. He works with each person to identify which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts methods over time so treatment stays relevant and effective for the client.

Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency, check in between meetings, and shape treatment around daily life while still allowing licensed professionals to guide skill-building and problem solving.
