Derek is very easy to chat to and very insightful. When you think you are completely off course and not managing very well, he reassures that all emotions are normal and provides direction. It was like talking to a friend. Would definitely recommend him.

I cannot express enough gratitude for Derek’s expertise and kindness. From our first meeting, he put both my child and me at ease with his warm and approachable demeanor. Derek took the time to thoroughly assess my daughters needs and crafted a personalized treatment plan that felt both comprehensive and manageable
Throughout our sessions, Derek demonstrated an exceptional ability to connect with my daughter, making each session something to look forward to rather than dread. Our sessions were virtual which significantly helped in reducing my child's anxiety about therapy.
I have noticed remarkable improvements in my child's ability to manage her ‘issue’, particularly in social settings and at school. Derek maintained open and clear communication with us, always explaining the progress and next steps in a way that was easy to understand. His support extended beyond just the sessions, providing us with tools and strategies to use at home.
Derek’s professionalism, combined with his genuine care for his patients, makes him an outstanding child psychologist. I highly recommend Derek to any parent seeking help for their child's psychological needs. He has made a profound difference in our lives, and I am confident Derek can do the same for others.

Derek has helped me tremendously in grabbing control of my life back. Having suffered with anxiety and work related stress, I was put into contact with Derek via my works private healthcare scheme. I've been speaking with Derek since July and I am in such a better place because of him. After successful job interviews, I'm now looking forward to starting a new role at a different company. Don't let stress and anxiety rule your life, get in contact with a professional. Derek would be highly recommended.

Susan Routledge

At the start of this treatment with Derek, I didn't think it would work for my depression anxiety and stress. Thankfully, I was wrong. It was hard at first, but I would like to thank Derek for staying with me and helping me get back to being me. Giving me my confidence back and the skills to cope with what life throws at me so I can move forward. It's been well worth the journey.

Steven Lewis

I’d been suffering with Severe anxiety for over 20 years which was quite debilitating and stopped me doing things I wanted to do. I was a bit sceptical as I had seen other professionals over the years with no progress but after using the tools Derek gave me I have made great progress and have been able to do things that I couldn’t even consider doing before. It’s early days but great results, I have less tension headaches and upset stomach’s and can enjoy social occasions. Worth every penny and from my first conversation with Derek never felt it was about the money for him but genuinely wanted to help me. I highly recommend Derek
