Derek Hagey, PhD
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Owner and Clinical Director
Dr. Hagey received his Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from University Wisconsin-Stout. He also earned a Doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy from Kansas State University.
Dr. Hagey has taught in several Marriage and Family Therapy programs and continues to focus on developing clinicians to better support clients.
Dr. Hagey and his family have lived all over the country, including Wisconsin, Kansas, Nevada, New Hampshire, and Utah. They currently live in Eagle Mountain.
How does Derek describe his therapeutic process:
My practice as a therapist is informed by my understanding of systems theory. We are always interacting with our world based on our experiences, and we interpret immediate situations through the lens we developed based on our past. I believe it is important to consider the whole person when they present for counseling, whether coming as an individual, a couple, or a family.
I primarily work with clients through a Narrative therapy process, including elements from my training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy.
When clients come into my therapy room, I see their potential. I see the strengths and abilities they possess. In working with me, you will gain a greater understanding of yourself and enrich your understanding of your life story. Through developing your life story, we will collaboratively find ways to manage symptoms better and develop resilience skills.
If you are ready to find hope and build the skills necessary to live your life more fully don't hesitate to reach out to me. I look forward to better understanding you and supporting you in building the life you want to live.
