About
Derricia Walters, LMHC, is an Indiana clinician who combines formal training with ongoing doctoral study in Counselor Education and Supervision at Grand Canyon University. She holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Huntington University and has four years of clinical experience. Walters also maintains counseling compact privileges to practice in Minnesota and Ohio. She centers her work in a person-centered stance that honors each client's perspective and preferences.
Walters integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emotionally-focused methods, mindfulness, and narrative interventions, and she draws on art therapy techniques when they suit the goals of treatment. Her practice addresses stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, and self-esteem concerns, and she attends to related challenges such as impulsivity, isolation, panic, phobias, workplace tensions, and young adult issues. Sessions emphasize identifying strengths, learning concrete skills, and addressing practical barriers. Walters frames the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative process and aims to walk alongside clients as they work toward their stated goals.
Remote counseling using CBT, DBT, and mindfulness
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is presented as a practical way to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to develop alternative responses through skill building and behavioral experiments. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers structured strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful when strong emotions or impulsive reactions interfere with daily life. Mindfulness-based techniques are used to increase moment-to-moment awareness and to support self-observation without judgment. Walters also brings a person-centered stance to online work, keeping the client's values and goals central, and uses narrative approaches and art-based exercises when they align with the therapeutic plan.
Clients who prefer a blend of skills training and reflective exploration may find a collaborative fit. Online sessions are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow Walters and the client to choose communication modes that best suit their rhythm and the focus of each session.What is Derricia Walters' clinical background?
