My name is Derrick C. Gibson — Licensed Professional Counselor, Elder at Brookside Ministry Church of God in Christ International, and someone who has spent his career showing up for people that many systems had already written off. I hold dual Master's degrees in Guidance and Counseling and Education from the University of Wisconsin-Stout, and my work has taken me deep into Kanawha County, West Virginia — into the schools, into the judicial system, and into the lives of families navigating some of the hardest circumstances imaginable. I've worked with domestic abuse survivors, sexual abuse survivors, at-risk youth, and individuals managing anger — not from a distance, but up close, with real investment in real outcomes. I also serve as a Christian Counselor, which means faith is not a footnote in my practice — it's woven into the foundation. If you're looking for a counselor who brings both clinical training and a grounded spiritual perspective, you've found one.
I'm a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in comprehensive, evidence-based care for individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions. With years of healthcare experience and a compassionate, patient-centered approach, I provide personalized treatment plans tailored to your unique goals and needs.
Whether you're seeking medication management, psychotherapy, or a combination of both, I work collaboratively with you to develop an individualized plan that promotes lasting wellness and improved quality of life.
I also offer Spravato® (esketamine) treatment for eligible adults with treatment-resistant depression and depressive symptoms associated with major depressive disorder. To better meet the needs of busy professionals, students, and families, evening and weekend Spravato appointments are available in a comfortable, supportive clinical setting.
My goal is to provide accessible, high-quality mental health care that empowers you to achieve emotional wellness and long-term recovery.
A highly motivated, result-oriented Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in nursing. Providing holistic, evidence-based, patient-centered care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Baltimore
Finding OCD therapists in Baltimore starts with knowing which training to look for. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people living with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists are trained in it. If you are looking for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, contamination concerns, checking, or reassurance-seeking, review therapist bios for OCD experience, ERP training, and related approaches like treating OCD with cognitive behavioral therapy.
Baltimore has many therapy options across neighborhoods like Mount Vernon, Hampden, Canton, and Federal Hill, which can make the search feel harder to narrow. Some people prefer an office they can reach by car or transit, while others prefer virtual sessions that fit into their schedule. As you compare therapists, look beyond whether they list OCD. Check whether they describe specific ERP experience, appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they explain their session structure or communication style.
Therapy in Baltimore can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can search for Baltimore therapists who support people with OCD, review detailed bios, compare virtual and in-person availability, and book directly when you are ready.
