Therapists in Charleston, SC

No New Clients Accepted. No Telehealth. Perhaps you have thought about counseling, but you aren't sure how to begin. I believe that nothing is more important than creating a safe, trusting, therapeutic relationship with you - a relationship in which you move at your own pace to explore your own concerns, hopes, and dreams. I want you to experience the difference that a caring counselor can make in your life!

I have experience with trauma, anxiety, depression, loss/grief, life changes and personality disorders, such as borderline personality disorder.

Currently accepting new clients! As a therapist, my engaging approach will support, encourage, and challenge you. I passionately believe that through collaboration, we will reflect on your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and identify your blind spots and pain points. Understanding the way you were raised and relationship dynamics from an early age can help you become self-aware and make connections to how you are relating with others in your life. This increased self-awareness will be our starting point. With my support, you will use your insights to redirect your life to achieve self acceptance and the inner-peace you seek.

Often when we encounter problems in life, we look for external solutions. Many of the obstacles that keep us from feeling better are internal wounds or patterns that once kept us safe. My goal is to help you shift patterns and heal wounds through the four pillars of mental health: self-knowledge, self-compassion, self-acceptance, and self-love. I believe all people have the innate capacity to heal themselves. I am a dedicated collaborator here to listen with curiosity and empathy and help you uncover your most content, authentic self.

Not accepting new clients. Therapy is a place where people can learn to identify core issues and limiting beliefs, and work toward resolution and healing. My passion for counseling comes from my core belief that there is inherent goodness and beauty in each person, as well as my own journey of faith and healing. As a therapist it is my privilege to work alongside individuals and families experiencing a wide rage of difficulties. My clients include individuals struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, self esteem, grief, loss and other difficulties, often resulting from unresolved trauma and life challenges.

***** 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. If you are looking for extra support, you are the one setting goals and I will help you look at ways to achieve them. 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.

Along with the clinical team at Charleston DBT Associates, I offer comprehensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for both adult and adolescent clients. DBT brings together Eastern Mindfulness techniques and Western clinical principles to create behavioral change in a warm therapeutic environment. DBT is the transaction between Zen contemplative practice and behavior therapy, held together with a dialectical philosophy. This dialectical stance works to find what is adaptive in even the most maladaptive behaviors, to assist clients in creating the emotional and behavioral changes needed to build a life worth living.
