Interpersonal Therapists in Greenville, SC

Sometimes life challenges set us back, block us from full potential, or even begin to overwhelm, control, and paralyze helpful thoughts and emotions. Counseling, with the assistance of a professional who supports, cares, and listens without judgement, is a way to navigate through difficult areas in our lives. As a licensed therapist, I specialize in a broad array of issues- including life stressors, interpersonal issues, anxiety, depression and trauma. I invite you to explore with me, through a variety of techniques, how you can begin to stabilize emotions, discover coping skills, and heal.

Sometimes life is not what we expected it to be. There are ups and downs, and we can almost feel suffocated and not know where to turn to. That is where therapy can be life-changing, and finding the right therapist can be a starting point for interpersonal growth. I value the relationship between myself and the client, and work really hard to build rapport to create trust. I love to empower my clients, so they can have emotionally healthier lifestyles, better relationships with others, and overall, more positive family environments. I, especially, have a passion for helping parents navigate the many stressors related to parenting.

While we are increasingly more connected to others via technology, we oftentimes feel less connected in our relationships. My desire is to assist you in developing genuine and authentic relationships with others and yourself. I passionately focus on this goal within the context of our individual therapeutic relationship. I promote positive change for you and your relationships by creating a reality based and positive approach to improvement in mood, behavior, and life balance. Together we accomplish this through interpersonal discussion and support with the integration of personal mission statements and goal orientation to oneself and to others.

I help individual adults and couples to navigate relationships, explore emotions, and gain freedom from past wounds. I focus on the therapeutic relationship and the present-moment in the counseling room. I collaborate with you to process your experience, your family system, and interactions with other people in your life. I enjoy working with counselors, pastors, and other ministry workers.

Far too often, life does not go as we hope or plan. It is at those times that we can truly benefit from supportive others showing us that we are not alone, and the powerful experience of someone validating, while also empowering us to overcome, our challenges. I believe that therapy is a space that can offer this support, and I value the chance to help individuals navigate life's transitions and obstacles. Through my training and work experiences, I have learned to empathize, and work effectively, with college students and individuals across the lifespan, from diverse backgrounds, and with a wide-range of concerns.

Welcome! I understand that it can be uncomfortable to reach out to someone you don't know with the expectation of sharing your story. I strive to create a supportive, affirming, and nonjudgmental space in order to foster a safe environment for growth at your own pace. I use an interpersonal approach to work to understand "how did we get here?" and "how can you get to where you want to go?" I hold the belief that all individuals have the inner resources to move towards wholeness, and much of the therapeutic process is connecting to those resources.

Has life got you feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel stressed and don't know what to do? I help client become the masters of their own lives again. I work with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and self harming behaviors. I also work with clients who are adjusting to new circumstances in their lives, having difficulty managing stress, or trouble navigating relationships and interpersonal conflict. I help clients work to build skills to regulate their emotions and thoughts effectively to become their own therapists.

Carl Rogers stated, "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." You may feel overcome with a lack of control over your own emotions or actions, or maybe you feel at a loss for how to support your child while continuing to form a strong and healthy relationship. I strive to help you or your child work towards authenticity while learning to effectively explore and cope with strong emotions and develop positive communication skills. I am confident in the power of cultivating these vital skills at an early age and empowering caregivers to encourage continued growth.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist and Career Therapist with 20 years of professional experience. I work closely with wonderful people like you who lead very busy lives, whether due to a highly stressful job, career, business or just being a parent trying to do it all. Many of my clients feel anxious, depressed, and/or overwhelmed balancing work and life. Others are experiencing a significant life transition -- a career change, the end of a relationship, or a relocation. I also work with healthcare providers, attorneys, engineers, entrepreneurs, and those in academia, among others.

My mission is to cultivate a creative, safe environment that is client-centered and collaborative. With a background in Social Work, Women’s, Genders and Sexualities Studies, and Addiction/Substance use, I use a combination of philosophical frameworks that encourage authenticity, embrace empathy, and honor lived experiences. A passionate advocate of healing and growth, I enjoys working with a wide range of people.

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!
