Domestic Abuse Therapists in Simpsonville, SC

Child and Adolescent psychologist. Ph.D. in Child/School Psychology from an APA-accredited program at McGill University, Montreal, Canada in 2005. I specialize in neuropsychological, psychological, developmental, and psycho-educational testing. Testing is performed for the purposes of diagnosis & treatment planning. I give "understandable" reports with comprehensive treatment plans, referrals to health professions (S&L, OT, PT, & psychiatrists), home-based & school-based recommendations. I equip parents to engage their children in interventions at home, empowering parents to take charge of their children's challenges. I also provide brief screening and treatment recommendations as an alternative to comprehensive testing.

With over 20 years experience working with those suffering from anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, narcissist abuse and OCD, I treat my clients with compassion and understanding. I equip them with new found skills and techniques to deal with life's transitions and challenges. I work from an empowering and strength based perspective. I work with highly motivated clients in a nonjudgemental, open and caring environment. Life can be hard and having someone with the education and skills to help coach us along the way can make a big difference in having a joyful, fulfilling and peaceful life.

I prefer to work with clients on a short term basis who are motivated to make a significant change in their situation whatever their problems may be. My practice is Christian focused with a unique blend of psychological techniques, information and tools with the power of faith and Biblical truths. I work best with adults and or family units. I have extensive experience in working successfully with couples in premarital and marital counseling. Other areas of expertise include trauma, grief, victims of abuse, anxiety disorders, and depression.

I have many years experience working with adults and children suffering from depression, anxiety, OCD, anger issues, trauma, and abuse. I have also worked in the field of drug and alcohol addiction. After my graduate studies, my primary focus and training was working with children suffering from ADHD, ODD, depression, and anxiety. I used behavioral management coupled with parenting strategies to improve the overall parent/child relationship. I gained incredible knowledge and insight regarding chronic pain as well as grief and loss while working with the elderly population through home health care and hospice.

Those of us who were raised in chaotic, abusive, or neglectful families can experience lingering effects. Whether a parent had a mental illness, abused substances, or was otherwise unable to provide a safe, stable, and nurturing environment, developmental trauma (DT) can occur. Events that happen to us during formative years (particularly emotional abuse/neglect) affect attachment, brain development, and the ways we perceive the world. Although outwardly successful, we often struggle with codependency, negative self-views, and patterns of behavior learned in dysfunctional homes. This can leave us exhausted and feeling hopeless.

Wellspring of Hope is a place of refuge & empowerment. Every person encounters life experiences where outside support and perspectives are helpful to overcome the challenge & live in restorative peace. Loren recognizes every individual has unique needs and diverse strengths to build upon. Her clinical insight is based upon a collaborative relationship to help set and meet goals that meet your specific needs. She believes healing is holistic, meaning that the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual intertwine. There is always support and encouragement, never judgement, when working towards healing.

Wearing masks is exhausting - are you ready to find your authentic self? Struggling with boundaries, authenticity, or being assertive? Are you finding that you are unsure of who you are anymore, due to the "hard stuff" life has thrown at you? We wear masks when we don't accept ourselves or feel others will either; believing we must play a certain part in order to be accepted. And acceptance is what we all want to feel. I believe the roots of things we have experienced in our lives, be them small traumas, big traumas, or any memorable moments in between - culminate who we become, how we act/react, and how we see ourselves.

Do you feel like your “life is a mess” or “out of control”? Do you feel a lack of self-esteem, self-identity, or self-confidence in your abilities? Do you feel your emotional issues get in the way of you having clarity and a more fulfilled life? Do you have a difficult time managing certain aspects of day to day living in areas including work, home life, relationships, mental health, physical health, social life, personal ambitions, and spiritual well-being? Do you feel as if you want to bring balance to your life but you don’t know where to start?

What is trauma? Trauma is any experience we face that we have never gone through before. Trauma isn't what happens to us, it's what happens inside of us. We learn how to manage our current situations by our past experiences. If you've been feeling unlike yourself lately, unable to manage things you could before, or constantly struggling with interpersonal relationships, it could be because you haven't developed the skills to navigate through what life is currently throwing at you. We don't chose the childhood we were given, or the challenges we are faced with, but we DO choose how we control the one thing we can: ourselves.

Hi! I am Shelly! I am so excited to be here and to have the opportunity to serve you! I am a practicing LPC in the Upstate of SC. I find absolute pleasure in working with clients who are in need of someone coming alongside them for guidance with concerns ranging from anxiety and depression to substance use issues and much more. Some potential clients like yourself may just need a listening ear, life coaching or guidance with developing healthy, appropriate skills to navigate life and managing the range of emotions that come along with that. Call or email me to discuss your particular needs. Telehealth services are available.

I got into therapy so I could help people end the cycles detracting from their fullest potential in life. So many of us plug through the day with nasty negative thoughts about ourselves, leaving us drained of energy and an incapacity to be mindful and present with each other. Using EMDR, mindfulness, and a heavy dose of humanity and empathy, I help my clients obtain the changes they seek in order to be the best versions of themselves. My style is thoughtful, witty, intentional, and comfortable and I'm always happy to help those who are ready to help themselves grow!

Accepting new clients! I have immediate openings, telehealth only. You deserve to be happy, to be confident, to be loved, to be seen and so much more! Sometimes we can believe these things for others but have trouble believing them for ourselves. As your therapist, I want to help you reach the place where you can see yourself as who you truly are - deserving of your best life. Your circumstances don't define you, your past experiences/hardships need not restrain you, and your past trauma doesn't have to control you. There is hope in your healing and I am confident your worth and value supersedes anything trying to hold you back.
