Therapists in Charleston, SC

We all experience difficult moments in life, no matter who we are or where we come from, and sometimes it’s simply too hard to do it alone. We need somebody to talk to, somebody with whom we feel comfortable enough to open our heart. Come here and let’s talk. 15 minutes, no strings attached. I am not going to ask for your personal information, your signature on stacks of paperwork, or your credit card number before our first appointment. Let's just see if I can be that person first.

Deciding to go to counseling can be daunting, and choosing a counselor can be even more intimidating. I hope to make your next steps more manageable and pleasant. My office is a safe, comfortable, and non-judgmental space to share your struggles, thoughts, and feelings while learning about yourself and working towards meeting your personal goals. Perhaps you’re feeling down, anxious, stuck, or just a bit unsettled; my passion is to listen and guide you to make positive changes to improve those feelings.

Most of us are hard on ourselves and tend to avoid or control our emotions. But how useful is this long term? Let's work together to find a better approach. I welcome young adults to my practice-it is a uniquely challenging part of life! I welcome men to my practice-I think it is helpful to work with a therapist who just "gets it" and with whom you can be your full self. I welcome people who are grieving and have experienced significant loss-I know how massively disruptive and overwhelming this can be. Visit my website to get started: www.estuarycounseling.com

Do you find yourself sad or worried much of the time? Are you overwhelmed with the demands or losses in your life? Do you feel like you're having more bad days than good days? Has your grief overtaken your life. I invite you to come in and work with me to process and problem solve together in a safe, healing and client centered space.

I work with adolescents, adults, couples and families on issues of trauma, anxiety, stress management and depression, grief, loss and relationship issues.

My ideal client recognizes the interdependence of body, mind, and spirit. They know that mental health influences physical health, and the reverse is also true. For example, sometimes depression is not just a mood disturbance, but it can also be a symptom of hormonal imbalance, or perhaps an under-functioning thyroid gland. My clients appreciate an integrative and holistic approach to wellness that respects their intelligence and honors their values. They feel supported with compassionate, relationship-based care and empowered with accurate health information and guidance.

I have experience working with people that have depression, anxiety, trauma, gender dysphoria, identity issues, and self-esteem issues.

I believe that each and every one of us is the expert of our own lives, but sometimes we feel overwhelmed and need guidance as we navigate life's challenges.

The exquisitely personal work we do in psychotherapy is one of the most challenging, and most richly rewarding efforts we can undertake. Seeking a deeper understanding of ourselves, healing pain from past relationships and pursuing a more energetic life are essential journeys to take. It is a privilege for me to accompany clients on this journey, holding the lantern that lights the way ahead and sharing in their struggle to find an invigorated life. This relationship is the foundation of healing and healthy change; a relationship with a therapist who is genuine, respectful, resourceful, compassionate, humorous and nonjudgmental.

I work from a nonjudgmental model where all are welcome. I help people that are struggling find happiness. My job is to make my job obsolete. I offer the tools to help reach goals, to heal from trauma, deal with pain, beat depression and fix relationships. I don't sell the 50 minutes a week that most therapists give you, I'm selling a practice life. It's not just the time we spend in session, it's also about the time between sessions. I have found that working this way moves the process of therapy forward and catalyzes healing.
