Therapist in Ann Arbor, Michigan Freddie Wyatt, Therapist

Freddie Wyatt is a Licensed Master Social Worker in Michigan who has been practicing since 2013. Sometimes we all need somebody to genuinely meet us where we are at in life with radical acceptance and compassion for who we are and where we want to go from here. But searching for the right person to connect with can be a daunting prospect, especially if you or your loved ones have lived experiences enduring societal rejections and systematic oppression. As such, Freddie’s primary goal in therapy is to cultivate an inclusive, warming environment where you can safely and freely express your authentic self, which is why you deserve to know a little about Freddie as well. Their legal name is Derrick Freyman, but their chosen name is Freddie Wyatt, and they use they/them pronouns. Freddie is a non-binary, queer therapist dedicated to upholding gender-affirming, sex-positive, and social justice values in their personal and professional lives. Freddie earned their MSW from Michigan State University, and with more than 10 years of experience serving children, teens, and adults in educational and private practice settings, they specialize in helping individuals and couples navigating challenges associated with anxiety, trauma, dysphoria, and depression. Freddie’s approach is tailored based on your individual goals and preferences, and they offer an integrated perspective drawing from Existential-Humanistic Psychotherapy (EHP), trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Outside of work, Freddie loves exploring the Ann Arbor/Ypsi area with their spouse and dog. Freddie enjoys a variety of music and media, coffee and tea, and tries hard to make time for reading, writing, and meditating.
