Let's Connect (864) 740-0918

You’re doing your best, but life feels heavier than it should. You want to be more patient, connected, and confident—especially in your relationships or as a parent—but stress, past experiences, or daily challenges keep getting in the way. You’re ready to understand yourself more deeply, manage emotions with greater ease, and build healthier patterns that help you feel grounded and at peace. Therapy is your space to slow down, feel seen, and start making real, lasting changes.

I use a client-centered approach, tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs. I help with ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, and personal growth. With my PCIT certification, I support parents in building strong, positive connections with their children.

I know everyone’s journey is different. I offer a warm, non-judgmental, emotionally safe, and inclusive space where you can feel understood and supported. Together, we’ll build resilience, explore self-discovery, and create meaningful change. Whether you need short-term guidance or long-term support, I’m here to walk with you. Contact me today!

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, and other modalities. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. Together we will discover your character strengths and I will teach you how to lean in on those strengths to move from survival mode to flourishing with purpose.
