  • Hi! I'm Jess.
  • Reaching out for help isn't always easy. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, frustrated, or simply tired of not feeling like yourself. Maybe you've been struggling for a while, or maybe you're just starting to realize that something needs to change. Wherever you are in that process, my goal is to meet you where you are, listen without judgment, and work with you to find a treatment plan that helps you feel better and move forward.
  • I completed my PMHNP program at Eastern Kentucky University in 2022. Since then, I have worked in a mix of outpatient, residential, and inpatient consultation settings, with a focus on general psychiatry and addiction medicine.
  • My practice is focused on helping clients ages 6-65 who are struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other mental health concerns. I work with people who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, frustrated, or simply like they aren't quite themselves anymore. Sometimes you may know exactly what is wrong, and sometimes you may just know that something needs to change. Either way, my goal is to help you better understand what you're experiencing and find a treatment plan that makes sense for you.
  • I am also in the process of completing additional certification in autism assessment and am eager to help meet the growing need for accessible autism assessment and treatment in the near future.

Virtual • West Virginia


Hi, I’m Travis Spradlin, a Licensed Professional Counselor in West Virginia. I graduated from Lindsey Wilson College in 2020 with a Master of Education in Counseling and Human Development. I’ve been providing psychotherapy for the past three years and have a passion for helping people find clarity, confidence, and balance in their lives.

I’ve worked with children ages seven and older, using an eclectic approach that combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, play therapy, and humanistic/person-centered techniques. In my telehealth practice, I enjoy working most with adolescents (13 and up) and adults. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered to make meaningful changes. Taking the first step toward therapy is an important act of self-care—and I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you begin that journey!

Derrick Gibson

Derrick Gibson

Therapist

Virtual • West Virginia


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.

Virtual • Capon Bridge, WV


When navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, or trauma, it is easy to assume that something is fundamentally wrong with you. If you are struggling with low self-concept, anger, or substance usage, you might view these obstacles as personal failures. My goal is to completely shift that narrative. Together, we will look at what is going on with you, rather than what is wrong with you.

Since 1993, I have spent over 30 years helping individuals recognize their innate strengths and leverage them to overcome life’s hardest hurdles. Throughout my career, I have developed deep clinical expertise, obtaining specific, formal certifications across multiple states to ensure you receive highly credentialed and adaptive care.

Taking that first step to reach out for support can feel intimidating. Because of this, our introductory session is designed to be a safe, collaborative space. We will explore what is currently going well, examine the challenges you are experiencing, and align on your expectations for therapy. My primary objective is to establish an empowering professional relationship built entirely on your strengths.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in West Virginia

Searching for therapists in West Virginia starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Across urban and rural parts of the state, available therapists and areas of focus can vary. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist who lists experience with your concerns, preferred therapy approaches, or populations they support. A detailed bio can help you understand how they work before you book.

Location and format matter, too. If you are looking for a therapist in Charleston, Morgantown, Huntington, or a nearby community, in-person availability may depend on where you live and how far you want to travel. Virtual appointments can expand your options across West Virginia, especially when local openings are limited. As you narrow your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Bios can also show communication style, session structure, and what to expect in a first visit.

The cost of therapy in West Virginia can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and book directly when you find a fit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your plan details to check coverage for your location. From there, you can browse therapists, review bios, and choose someone who matches your needs, schedule, and insurance plan.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
