Do you feel distant from yourself? Do you find yourself going through the motions of life without enjoying it? If you feel worn out, tired, triggered, unsure of yourself, or are just looking for a new approach to therapy, I am happy to meet you. I provide a peaceful, non-judgmental, and creative place to rediscover yourself. I focus on nurturing the mind-body-spirit connection in therapy for integrated wellness. I strongly believe that through wellness, there is healing. Through evidence-based methods like EMDR and movement therapy, I help clients develop practical coping skills and lasting healing.

With over 30 years of experience working with individuals, families and couples I have developed my own unique approach to therapy. I work hard to meet people where they are in the journey of healing. My belief is that this journey is a lifelong process and there is often a time in our lives when people need to speak to someone who can help them process whatever they are experiencing with no judgement.

Often times, people have a preconceived notion of what therapy is, and what it is not, which may raise questions such as "Can therapy truly help me or my loved one?" and “Will my therapist really understand who I am and where I would like to go?”. To those questions, I can say, yes! Therapy is often described as a journey, and getting started can help you or your loved one get to the desired destination. I hope that I can assist in this deep process, especially knowing how scary this can be for so many of all ages!

I recognize that sometimes we as human beings know there is something off in our lives, and we have a difficult time figuring out what is happening on our own. I would love to help you, on your journey to insight and understanding, to move forward. I can help you learn how to develop coping strategies, process through emotions and significant life experiences, and how to handle the issues that are standing in the way of your goals. ​

As we journey through life we can lose our footing and become disconnected. Adapting to various life experiences we may develop patterns that temporarily serve or protect us, but over time keep us from living our best life. Within an empathic & nonjudgmental space, I'm here to help you navigate life's challenges, uncover "stuckpoints," reaffirm your core values, and take action toward a happier, healthier you. I provide the right balance of validation and challenge to empower you to embrace your true self, develop more meaningful connections, and make positive lasting changes in your life.

In all of my years of experience in working with people, I have found that what people most want and need is a safe space to be heard, supported, and understood. It's within that place that people begin to heal. My passion is in helping people find healing at the root cause of their pain. We all have painful experiences. When we can address those areas of pain (which often get reinforced time and time again), we can actually overcome the things that make us feel stuck.

You are unique and so is your story. Our counselors are trained in a unique approach to therapy that helps clients in ways specific to their personality and experiences, no matter their age. We help children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families find healing at the root cause of their stress, emotional exhaustion, anxiety, and/or depression. Many of our clients come to us in emotional pain, often stuck, lost, or hurting. Through our work together, our clients finish counseling with more fulfillment, increased energy, better direction, and more joy.

Life is often a series of difficult challenges and painful struggles. It can be hard to make sense of it all, let go and truly heal. Still, trauma, chronic pain/illness, mood issues, loss or other difficult problems do NOT need to define you or your life. I have a passion to help young adults, women, single moms, military families, and others who've been impacted by the tough stuff life has to offer. Using a holistic, strengths-based approach that integrates wellness practices, with trauma informed modalities I can help facilitate the healing process, and provide an opportunity for you to become the best version of yourself!

I believe that people are holistic beings. We are more than just our actions, or just our thoughts. We are complex. Intrinsic to this complexity is our inherent relationality. It is so often the case that our wounds are relational in nature. These relational wounds, and our complexity can make us feel broken. I believe therapy can play a key role in helping people heal from relational wounds and find security. I desire to create a therapeutic relationship that fosters relational healing, and aids in your journey to wholeness.

Do you feel like you are in a cycle of negative thinking? Is your day to day stress impacting your quality of life? Do you feel like you are worried more often then not?

Have you been worrying a lot, unable to concentrate, or feeling overwhelmed? As a licensed therapist, I am here to help you address these feelings. I work with children, adolescents, and adults and specialize in depression, panic disorder, generalized anxiety, social anxiety, phobias, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, ADHD, and relationship issues.

Sometimes we find ourselves exhausted, stuck, or overwhelmed. Whether my patients are dealing with a new stress or a long history of battling depression or PTSD, I am committed to providing a space of acceptance, respect and self-exploration to support clients in addressing their challenges and creating meaningful and fulfilling lives. My specialty is in using a unique approach (Psychodynamic or Psychoanalytic Therapy) to help people process their emotions and find ways to feel less stuck and find more joy.

With the challenges in your life, you feel overwhelmed and unsure where to turn next. Restored Waters Counseling is a place where you can find the support you need to address the challenges you are facing. We provide a safe and compassionate environment to help you heal and grow.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who provides consultation and treatment services to children, adolescents, young adults, and families. Areas of focus include anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, behavior management, and social skills training. I also provide individual therapy services to adults experience significant symptoms of anxiety. Additionally, I provide specialized services for families going through a divorce or separation, both through therapy services for children and co-parenting services to help parents by enhancing communication and laying the foundation for a healthier relationship after the divorce.

I support those who struggle to be present in their bodies. I support you by teaching mindfulness and emotion regulation to build the safety needed to confront the underlying trauma. Chronic pain and health anxiety are special areas of focus for me, and I can support you in learning how to read your body and understand why it may be sending the signals it is sending. We get to the root of the physical pain by exploring the emotional pain, learning to feel our feelings without numbing and exploring ways to stay in the present. I help you learn how to find your way safely back home to your body.

I am passionate about helping individuals find a new way of life, a sustainable, challenging life that addresses, mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual growth. By attending to goals that one may have lost, in the everyday routine of life I believe, my job is to educate and encourage my clients to find their best selves and their most fulfilling future. By helping the individual achieve small one day at a time victory, confidence builds and new coping skills are discovered and celebrated. I enjoy watching my clients find serenity and joy.

Feeling comfortable talking with your therapist is the most important ingredient in a therapeutic relationship. My clients tell me I'm very easy to talk with and I suppose it's because I genuinely enjoy getting to know and helping people have the life they want. Both individual and couples counseling are offered at my office in Mt Pleasant, SC. Being licensed in the following states, intensive counseling retreats and teletherapy are also offered in Columbia and Greenville, SC and Asheville, Charlotte and Wilmington, NC.

My passion is in helping Children, Adolescents, Adults, and Families who feel stuck, overwhelmed, and/or unsure of how to work through the challenges they are facing. Each age group requires a different way to connect and build trust. Everyone has pain and deserves a space to be seen, understood, and supported (even the little ones!). I specialize in helping clients of all ages work through trauma, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, attention and behavioral concerns, attachment issues, and mood dysregulation (ie ups and downs).
