Teletherapy for South Carolina

Have you been trying to connect with yourself or your partner yet find yourself feeling further away? You are not alone. Navigate the challenges of life, relationships, and growth is a difficult process. Communication, building trust, and strengthening connection to yourself and your loved ones takes sustained effort and effective support.

We all face difficult challenges or situations that affect our way of life, who we are, and our social/family environments resulting in hurt, pain, depression, anxiety, feeling of grief/loss, and need to be validated and accepted. No one should go through these challenges alone as I meet you where you are in life's travels and assist you in navigating these difficulties with my years of experience and education. My practice includes individuals (children, adolescents, and adults), couples, and families. If you are looking for a supportive, non-judgmental counselor, give me a call.

Therapy is like co-authoring a story—embarking on a great journey, overcoming obstacles, noticing the softer moments, and forging a path toward hope. It's an honor to witness my clients' growth, as authenticity and well-being positively shape their world and narratives. I am committed to helping my clients bravely explore new ways toward self-compassion, authenticity, and wholeness. My work focuses on deepening relational satisfaction, creating safe and meaningful connections, and establishing healthy patterns that promote both individual and collective well-being.

With a non-judgmental, client-centered approach I can assist you with developing effective coping skills & new perspectives to live your most fulfilling life.

Finding hope and restoration in places of pain can feel impossible. Yet seeking counseling can be the first step toward healing. I believe that struggling individuals and couples can turn their relationships and lives around - you absolutely can move from suffering to thriving. I welcome the opportunity to walk with you towards renewed living through the counseling process. With over 20 years of counseling experience, I have worked in a variety of settings with diverse populations.

We are products of our environment, experiences and relationships. Along the way, we have gathered deeply internalized beliefs - some that serve our growth and wellbeing, some that don’t - emotions, both positive and negative, and chronic stress or trauma. All of this has impacted our life and much of what has happened in the past still resides deeply in our body, manifesting as behavioral, relational or emotional struggles, often unexplained and sometimes inexplicable.

"Whatever you do hold onto hope, my friend. The tiniest thread will twist into an unbreakable cord. Let hope anchor you in the possibility that this is not the end of your story, that hope will anchor you onto peaceful shores."-unknown. Helping individuals and families thrive is my passion as I believe that we are all inherently capable of healing and even thriving from challenging situations and painful life transitions. Leading people to their unique path for healing and understanding their own power and pain is an honor I cherish.

Clients who work with me are seeking a collaborative effort for wellness, open to mind / body approaches and a healthful path. Clients may be dealing with Anxiety or Depression or Life Transitions (job related / relational / fertility / men's & women's issues / LGBTQQIA+ / aging). You may be working to find peace & purpose in your life. I hope to help you in evaluating and processing internal and external barriers that may prevent you from actualizing authentic-self potential. We will do this work with psychodynamic and somatic principals. We will work together to provide applicable skills for meeting the goals we set forth.

Do you feel alone, invisible, and unimportant, like the person you love is rarely there for you emotionally: so you pursue your partner and even have occasional outbursts just to try to get through to them? Do you feel overwhelmed, like no matter what you do it is never good enough to please the person you love: so you defend yourself, shut down, or turn away in your relationship? Are you feeling frustrated and stuck, like there is no way you can get through to the person you care about? Are you feeling depressed and anxious, and the problems in your relationship seem to make it worse? You don't have to stay stuck. There is hope.

Not Accepting New Clients until August 2024:Concerned about your relationship with self and others? I'd love to help!

From an attachment-based theory, I believe that although much pain can enter our lives through our relationships, relationships are also the conduit of healing, including the therapeutic relationship.

Hello there! I am passionate about joining those on a journey to better relationships, emotional health, clear thinking, and living a fulfilled life. I enjoy working with those who are motivated to change because I believe that people have the ability to grow and flourish into who they want to be. Past relational and emotional pain often cripples thinking, relationships and ourselves which can leave us in an unhealthy and negative way we view the world. Through compassionate exploration of self and relationship to others to heal hurts, it can be well.

Each person is worthy of being seen, heard, and valued. When the challenges and stressors of life become too much to handle, it can lead to feeling like the rug is being pulled out from under you. I take a person-centered approach, allowing each person to be the expert of their own lives, and work to walk alongside each client to help them find their desired outcomes. I work with individuals, couples, and family members through a number of varying issues and problems to gain emotional resilience in order to respond mindfully to life’s challenges while fostering personal and relational healing.

***** Not accepting new clients ***** As a licensed social worker, my main objective is to focus on the strengths each person already has and the areas in which he or she wants to improve.

Each person is an individual who may be having a hard time with certain areas and not a patient who fits a "standard mold." We all struggle with difficulties in life, and now may be a time that you can use some help.
