As a Christian counselor, I believe a person's problems and concerns can encompass their physical, mental, and spiritual health. My goal is to provide therapy that addresses a client's deeper issues and wounds not just their symptoms. I consider it important to provide a safe and supportive therapeutic environment to promote development, healing and growth. I work with depression, anxiety, PTSD & trauma recovery, marriage/pre-marital therapy and parent education. If life feels overwhelming, stressful or lonely, I would consider it a privilege to set up a consultation to offer hope and courage for your current situation.

*Online video sessions and telephone sessions now available*. Counseling can make a difference in many areas: relieving depression and anxiety, finding our strengths and overcoming weaknesses, managing anger and stress, living through illness, trauma, or loss; improving motivation for change, overcoming addiction, connecting with those we love and care about, navigating life transitions, and gaining perspective and purpose.

Life can be rough and sometimes our coping mechanisms used in the past just do not seem to be working. Most people find that having a professional, outside of family and friends, can be tremendously helpful in order to move forward. Whether you are struggling with troublesome behaviors, thoughts and/or emotions, participating in therapy can be beneficial. I work to create a safe space for you to explore and work towards creating the life you want.

Are you tired of carrying the burden of emotional pain, of pretending everything is fine when it really isn’t? Are you growing weary of trying to keep up with the pace of your present life while outrunning echoes of past trauma and family secrets? Do you want to feel more present, authentic, and connected to self and others? You can heal, discover a new path, and begin to uncover your true self.

The Professionals at Therapy Corner addresses the needs of children, teens, and adults. Through talk therapy, often we find that we have coping skills we have not accessed. We help clients help themselves!! In addition to traditional counseling settings, we are offering telephone counseling, Facetime, Skype, etc. We also offer home visits to clients for their convenience. We will soon be adding another feature to our services; Telemedicine with Behavioral Health

The couples I work with are struggling. At first glance they may seem fine – smiling and happy – but they cannot stop arguing. They know they love their person but they feel so stuck. It HURTS. They long to feel understood, to know that their person is “with them”, and they want to know they are not alone. They want to find a way to make their relationship work but they don’t know where to start.

I am a Psychologist with a Doctorate Degree in Clinical Psychology ( an MA in Education, MA in Psychology). Through extensive training, I have learned to conceptualize the Whole person. Therefore, as Psychologist and a Christian, I am invested in the psychological and spiritual lives of my clients. I have committed myself to a nonjudgmental, caring, and effective therapeutic practice. A change in perspective and learning new skills can make all the difference to someone suffering. Therapy is an investment in yourself and your loved ones. Personally, walking along the healing path with my clients is my life's passion.

Has your life become unbearable? Do you feel trapped in a dark place with no way to escape? Are you holding on by a thread wondering how you’re going to make it to the end of the day? Have you already tried everything you know to do, but it’s still not working, it’s still not enough? You can escape. Whether you’re trying to improve your relationship, escape depression, calm anxiety, heal from trauma, or control anger, change is possible. It is not too late to feel loved, appreciated, valued, and safe in your life and relationships.

Looking for brief therapy to work through a pacific issue that you've not been able to resolve on your own? EMDR therapy helps people process disturbing memories, thoughts, feelings that can greatly reduce therapy sessions to even just a few sessions in many cases. EMDR can reduce addiction cravings and the intensity of chronic pain and discomfort. It is used to help people lower their anxiety, process trauma and improve confidence. If short-term treatment that focuses on resolving negative thoughts and feelings is what you are looking for, contact me to schedule an appointment.

Let's admit that life can be a real challenge. No matter who you are, we can all go through difficulties. Sometimes at no fault of your own. The way you respond to these difficulties in many ways is the key. For over 20 years, it has been my job, to listen, encourage and coach individuals, just like you, to be the very best they can in each and every tight situation. So as you look for a counselor during this difficult time please consider me, I am on your side and we can walk through this together.

Many of the individuals I work with have either been through a recent life change or trauma, or have been dealing with anxiety, depression or any number of issues for several years to a lifetime. My purpose is not to understand what it is like to walk in your shoes, but to come alongside you and walk with you together through your difficulties and figure out healthy strategies together. We will set goals and objectives together to formulate a viable solution for your situation. I have experience working with individuals, couples and groups dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, relationships, and behavioral problems.

You’re a chronic overachiever. You love to learn. You are curious about yourself and others. From the outside, your life appears enviable, even picture-perfect. Your dirty little secret is that you are your own worst enemy. Deep down, you believe you are a fraud who eventually will be revealed. You bury this secret under an exterior of perfection. You’re terrified that you are one failure away from destruction. Day after day you frantically over think every scenario in an attempt to keep all of your ducks in a row. You are stressed out, overwhelmed and exhausted from the effort.

It's hard to describe to others what it's truly like living with anxiety or depression. So you go about your day keeping it a secret while silently suffering. It’s hard work to look like you have it all together all of the time. If they only really know what you were going through. And, yet your experience, well, it's hard to put into words. It's as if your anxiety or depression is in charge. They dictate how you relate to life, your relationships, and yourself. Let's face it, you've tried all of the things to feel better on your own, without asking for help. However, your DIY mentality just isn't working this time.

You are unique and so is your story. I help clients in ways specific to their personality and experiences through a specialized counseling approach the creates healing at the root cause of stress, emotional exhaustion, anxiety, and/or depression. Many of my clients come to me in emotional pain, often stuck, lost, or hurt. Through our work together, my clients finish counseling with more fulfillment, increased energy, better direction, and more joy.

NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. As a licensed therapist, I work from a Christian perspective integrating faith and positive change. My practice, Hope for the Future Christian Counseling, LLC, is located in Murrells Inlet at 640 Morse Avenue, Unit C. I believe we are made in the image of God and that he loves us all. Because of that belief, I take a holistic approach that includes body, mind, and soul; however, I allow the client to set the pace and determine whether or not they want to include faith aspects in our work together. I am trained in EMDR therapy and often integrate emotion focused therapy and attachment therapy in my work.
