We are social beings who long for connection with the people we love most — especially in moments of crisis, when everything feels like it's falling apart; this desire for firm attachment has strong research support. Together, we can explore how to reconnect — with the people who matter most to you, and maybe even with yourself first. We all need to feel truly seen and understood, and when that doesn't happen, it's easy to feel stuck, invisible, or unappreciated. That's where I can help. Sometimes that journey starts by simply meeting yourself where you are right now. Reach out, is a doorway for you in Columbia, SC.
Relationship/couples therapy, individual therapy, marriage counseling, blended families, lost connection, and sexual compatibility are some of my focus areas. I also work with individuals with self-expression, and relational connection challenges. Let's find solutions to your specific needs. Trauma-informed and affirming of your life.
I hold an Ed.S graduate degree from the University of South Carolina, focused in marriage, couples and family therapy. Behind that, I have decades of mediation and collaboration experience in complex corporate negotiations. If this has resonated with you, chances are I will be able to help you achieve your goals. No cost for an initial phone consultation.
