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.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns that no longer serve you? Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, or compulsive behaviors, you don't have to face it alone. Change is possible, and healing starts with taking the first step.

Hi, I'm Jessica, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in West Virginia. For 16 years, I've helped adolescents and adults navigate life's challenges through individual, group, and family counseling. I provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling exhausted by worry, weighed down by past experiences, or stuck in patterns they want to change. Together, we'll explore what's holding you back, build practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to help you move beyond survival mode and create a life that feels more balanced, connected, and fulfilling. If you're ready to take the next step, I'd be honored to support you on your journey.
