I have experience working with children from ages 4 to 12 in both a school setting and private practice. I received both my Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology and my Master’s of Education in Counseling from Winthrop University.

I am passionate about helping clients struggling with issues related to self, self-identity, and relational distress. These issues typically manifest themselves in symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and relational conflict. It is my goal to partner with my clients to create an environment in which they feel safe, accepted, unjudged, and free to explore themselves and what they are experiencing. I have worked with adolescents ranging in age from 8 to 18 years, young adults, and middle-aged adults. I have experience working with people from a wide array of beliefs, values, and ethnic backgrounds.

"My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive." (Maya Angelou) Are you in "survival mode"? Struggling with anxiety? At a loss for how to help your child? Unhappy with your relationships? Whatever challenges you are facing, you deserve the opportunity to overcome them and thrive in a healthier, more satisfying life. Counseling can be an effective tool in working toward this end, and I enjoy being a part of the process with my clients. By focusing on your strengths and by using individualized approaches, I aim to provide a safe place to support you in gaining a better understanding of how you might achieve your goals.

Something that I feel makes me unique is that my approach to counseling is to empower you to begin to heal. We all face challenges in life and need someone to assist us with unlocking our power to self heal. I was fortunate in being able to be both the counselor and client. That experience gives me the ability to understand how hard and scary it is to ask a stranger for help. I love and believe in what I do and I would love to help you!!!

It is very easy to believe that change can't happen or that it's too late to make adjustments. The duration of a problem has nothing to do with your ability to make changes. You can start at any time to make changes that will make a difference in you life. Let me help you explore the steps you need to make improvements in your life.

If you need guidance finding your way through a challenging period in your or your family's life, I would like to help. I specialize in helping individuals and families struggling with autism spectrum disorders or Asperger's syndrome. I also work with individuals suffering from anxiety and depression or who need help developing more satisfying professional and personal relationships. As a licensed marriage and family therapist intern, it is my privilege to work with individuals, couples and families as they work their way to fuller, more satisfying lives.

My practice name sums up my view that every person has the power to heal themselves and problems are simply symptoms of things that are going on. I specialize in child, adolescent and family therapy and have training in a variety of modalities. As such, I tailor my approaches to best meet your needs (CBT therapies, art and play therapies, behavioral approaches, social skills, EMDR and trauma techniques). Therapy, in its truest sense, is not about comfort because it is never easy dealing with some of our areas but my goal is to make the process supportive and safe.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, providing counseling services for individuals, couples, children, and families. My goal is to help people feel more empowered to handle life's issues. Working together, we will develop a treatment plan to overcome whatever obstacle you have encountered. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, family conflict, low self-esteem, or relationship issues, I would appreciate the opportunity to help. My office is accessible for clients in Greenville, Greer, Duncan, Simpsonville, & surrounding areas. View my website to get more information about my background and my practice.

Are you going through a difficult time of loss or upheaval and change? Do you have strained or troubled relationships, painful or difficult thoughts or emotions? Are you looking to be more creative or maybe just seeking to live a more fulfilling life? I work with clients to help them live and love with increased creativity and insight. I offer targeted, evidence-based therapy to help those with troubling thoughts and emotions adjust effectively and move on. I have experience in treating trauma, anxiety, and depression as well as helping individuals working through mid-life or late-life transitions.

In terms of my treatment approach, my style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I find that most issues that bring individuals to therapy are, at their core, about emotions and relationships. So, I spend a good deal of effort learning about patterns of emotional expression within current and important historical relationships. My approach is to seek immediate reduction of symptoms while creating a treatment pathway to address long-term, underlying problems.

Let me help you. My passion is to help people find ways to live their lives more effectively. Many people admit that they do not know what to do to help their situation. A recognition of the need for change is the first step. Counseling can offer guidance that will help people avoid common mistakes and find solutions. If you are motivated to better yourself, I would like to offer you help.

What do you struggle with regularly? Are you stuck? Do you feel out of control? By creating a safe and non-judgmental environment, I can help you make sense of your story and together, we can author a new version that leads you down a better path. I offer counseling for the individual, married couple, and pre-marital couples (using SYMBIS). It is my goal to stabilize, strengthen, and facilitate healing for all my clients. My practice specialty is treating sexual/pornography addiction. Pornography is widely available and more prevalent than at any other time in history. It affects all types of people - even Christians.

Accepting Life on Life's terms can be difficult at times. Its ok and even healthy to reach out for support. You get to choose who you trust and with whom you feel most comfortable reaching out for that support. Counseling and problem solving with a clinician in an office setting can provide a 'sounding board' & objective feedback in a mutually respectful and professional way. I look forward with my customers to an opportunity to grow and learn through their experiences, assisting at times to extract meaning from their suffering.

Do you feel afraid, worried, alone, helpless? Are you constantly reminded of a painful or terrifying experience that has interrupted your life and shattered your sense of trust, safety, and control? Are your circumstances so overwhelming you cannot cope and feel that no one will understand? Maybe you are experiencing a challenging life transition or health concern, and you need support for yourself, your child, or your family. No matter what trauma, loss, or life transition you are facing, THERE IS HOPE. You CAN resolve the problem, heal the pain, find peace and experience the GIFT of wellness.

I understand that making lasting changes can be difficult for adolescents and young adults. With 20 years experience I have learned that everyone's therapy needs are unique. My goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment where we can work together in order to help you get back In-Step with the world around you. I enjoy and specialize in working with adolescents and young adults struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, LGBTQ+ issues and other issues associated with this challenging transitional time in life.

Are you exhausted at the end of your work day, burned out, or physically sick more often than in the past? As a caregiver, compassion and empathy drive your work, requiring an emotional investment in other people that leaves you drained. It can be difficult to set aside time for your own emotional needs. After all, we have been trained to fully focus on the mental health and well-being of other people. You want to provide the best client care, focusing fully on their mental health, and still have energy left for yourself at the end of the day.
