I have over 30 years experience in the mental health field. I have extensive knowledge and experience working with people suffering from anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, schizophrenia, OCD, trauma, PTSD, domestic violence, complicated grief and relationship issues. For 17 years I have worked in a day treatment program where I provided individual, group and family counseling targeting clients suffering with range of issues from ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorders, physical/sexual abuse and substance abuse. Only Blue Cross/Blue Shield and Self-Pay with South Carolina residents.
I incorporate a vast range of clinical interventions into my practice: CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Person-Centered, Anger Management, Relaxation Training and Psychoanalytic Treatment. Listening to others in a caring and empathetic manner has been crucial in my ability to develop trusting relationships with others
I maintain a nonjudgmental stance with awareness of one's cultural beliefs, values and sexual orientation, provide an atmosphere where one has the ability to cope through difficult times within their lives. SC clients self pay and Blue Cross/Blue Shield
