Therapy Session in South Carolina

I am an open-minded and supportive therapist who specializes in anxiety, mood disorders, neurodiversity, relationship and family challenges, and trauma. I graduated from Appalachian State University with a focus on Marriage and Family Counseling and hold graduate certificates in Expressive Arts Therapy and Addictions Counseling. I am also a Trust Based Relational Intervention Practitioner which involves specific training to meet the complex developmental needs of children who have experienced trauma and attachment insecurity. My main focus in therapy is to help you feel safe and to understand your challenges from your viewpoint. My goal is to help build on your strengths and develop new skills so that challenges feel workable. Being stuck or overwhelmed can feel isolating and I don't want you to feel alone, we can work together. My hope is that you finish therapy with greater self-awareness, confidence, and connection.

I hold a Master of Social Work degree from Winthrop University and have been providing therapy since 2018. I am licensed in multiple states and work with children, families, couples, and individuals. I treat concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, school-related challenges, and self-esteem difficulties. My approach is collaborative and empowering, emphasizing shared goal-setting and ongoing progress assessment so clients remain active participants in their care. When working with children, I involve the family system, recognizing the impact of relational and environmental factors on functioning. For clients who desire it, I am also comfortable incorporating faith and spiritual concerns into treatment in a respectful and client-centered way.
