Derrick Humphrey, LMHC, LIMHP

Derrick Humphrey is a licensed counselor practicing in Florida and Nebraska with 17 years of professional experience. He holds LMHC and LIMHP credentials (LMHC stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor and LIMHP stands for Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner) and bases his clinical work on evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused techniques.

As a Christian counselor, he integrates spiritual perspectives with attention to emotional, social, and physical well-being. He has supported people facing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, career difficulties, motivation concerns, and questions about life purpose. His approach is holistic, taking into account faith, relationships, body, and mind when developing a plan for change.

Derrick emphasizes tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each individual’s unique needs and goals. He recognizes that beginning therapy can require courage and seeks to create a respectful, goal-oriented process that helps clients move toward clearer priorities and practical steps forward.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Accessible Online Care

He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and modify unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this practical approach often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by focusing on concrete skills and manageable steps. He also uses solution-focused techniques that concentrate on clients’ strengths and short-term goals to develop actionable solutions and build momentum toward specific changes.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Derrick will collaborate with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds to ensure the approach feels relevant and workable.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule and to connect across distances. For clients in different time zones or those balancing work and family, these options support consistent access to licensed professionals while allowing therapy to fit each person’s life.
