I am a licensed therapist in the Charleston area. I have been practicing for over 30 years. In my work with you we can explore how to grow by transforming difficult patterns from the past that may be effecting the present and grow strengths , skills and positive abilities into a more effective you.
I am also a certified EMDR ( Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist. EMDR is a powerful psychotherapy which has been very successful in helping people who suffer from trauma, anxiety, panic attacks, disturbing memories of past abuse and neglect and other PTSD situations.
