As a therapist of nearly 20 years I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, I congratulate you for taking that first step! My main focus is helping individuals struggling with anxiety and mood disorders and life changes.

Hello! My name is Elizabeth Derr and I am located here in OKC. Currently I offer ADHD testing services in office and telehealth therapy services. I have been a therapist for over 12 years and work best with neurodivergent adults, anxiety related disorders as well as depression/mood disorders.

Credentials and Experience

I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma and Colorado, a board-certified counselor (NCC), and hold a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision - which means I don't just practice therapy, I train and supervise other therapists. That clinical depth shapes everything about how I work with clients.

My specialization is neurocounseling: integrating what we know about the brain and nervous system into practical, grounded therapy. I also hold specialized training in telehealth - so working with you virtually isn't a workaround, it's where I do my best work.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, identity, and the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for too long.

As an ADHD-Certified Clinical Service Provider and someone with lived experience of ADHD, I focus on supporting individuals navigating not just ADHD, but anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. I offer personalized telehealth therapy tailored to each client's unique needs, aiming to enhance coping strategies and overall well-being.

I offer telehealth services, making therapy more accessible and easier for clients. With a focus on providing personalized care, I strive to deliver the best possible service to meet each client’s unique needs. I have a flexible schedule and later evening appointments (after 9 pm) are available if requested.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience supporting adolescents and adults through life’s challenges. I specialize in helping individuals manage depression, anxiety, grief, and times of crisis, offering compassionate guidance and evidence-based care.

With extensive experience in medical social work and crisis intervention, I also have a strong background in supporting first responders and others navigating high-stress environments. My approach is strengths-based and person-centered, grounded in evidence-based practices that promote resilience, healing, and personal growth.

I earned a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Oklahoma and have built my career helping individuals navigate life's challenges with resilience and hope.

I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to discover their own capacity for change and well-being.

I believe therapy works best when we’re actively working together toward meaningful change. Growth can feel uncomfortable at times, but with practice, new ways of thinking and relating become more natural and empowering. My approach is collaborative, genuine, and grounded in respect. My primary modalities are Cognitive Behavioral and Attachment Based, but I tailor therapy to each person’s needs, drawing from a variety of methods to help you build insight, confidence, and resilience. I value a strong therapeutic relationship where you feel supported and understood — and also encouraged to step into the life you want.

I enjoy working with individuals of various lifestyles and feel my ability to remain accepting, respectful, and genuine are my personal strengths. I am also honored as an advisor to the 5th Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders which is the foremost diagnostic tool utilized by all mental health professionals around the world.

If you’re ready to make meaningful changes in your life, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity and purpose. To read more about my client experiences, you can visit my profile on Healthgrades.
