Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Easton, MD

I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up as yourself without fear of judgment. My style is warm, authentic, and down-to-earth, and I value building genuine connections with the people I work with. I enjoy getting to know my clients as individuals, including their interests, experiences, and what makes them who they are. Whether we're discussing anxiety, depression, relationships, self-esteem, or life transitions, I want you to feel understood as a whole person rather than defined by your struggles. I also believe humor and everyday interests can be meaningful ways to build connection and make therapy feel more comfortable.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 10 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals, couples, and families.

My background includes conducting comprehensive intake assessments, psychosocial evaluations, treatment planning, and case management services to help clients receive well-rounded support tailored to their needs.

I earned my Master of Social Work from Howard University School of Social Work, and I am deeply passionate about helping people feel more balanced, understood, and empowered in their daily lives. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, supportive, and judgment-free. My goal is to create a safe space where you can openly explore your experiences, strengthen resilience, and work toward meaningful personal growth at your own pace.

I am a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with training in both primary care and psychiatric mental health. I have extensive experience providing care in community, correctional, and integrated care settings, where I work with individuals managing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and other mental health concerns.

I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and respected. I value thoughtful assessment, clear communication, and collaborative decision-making to help clients better understand their symptoms and treatment options. My goal is to partner with each client to develop a personalized care plan that supports both mental and overall well-being.

I believe therapy begins with feeling safe enough to be honest and being heard without judgment. I want my clients to know that you don't have to have all the answers before coming to therapy. Sometimes taking the first step is the hardest part.

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Maryland and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) licensed in Virginia and Maryland. I have worked in behavioral health for many years, with a particular focus on substance use, co-occurring mental health concerns, and trauma. My experience includes working with adults from diverse backgrounds and supporting individuals through residential, intensive outpatient, and outpatient levels of care.

I genuinely enjoy helping people recognize strengths they may have forgotten they have. I believe that your diagnosis, substance use, trauma, or past experiences are only part of your story—they do not define who you are. I will meet you where you are and work with you to identify where you want to go next.

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.

Reaching out for help can be difficult, but you don't have to do it alone. I support children, teens, and adults managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and stress. My aim is to create a safe, supportive environment where you can be authentic. Together, we'll craft a personalized treatment plan to help you feel healthier, more confident, and in greater control of your life.
