Trauma Focused Therapists in Columbia, SC

Life has a way of throwing us challenges that are difficult to handle without support. Whether you have experienced a loss, are having issues within your relationships, changes are occurring in your life, you are experiencing higher stress, feeling overwhelmed, or simply just want to talk to someone I am here for you, I will partner with you to help you move your life in the direction you want. I have 17 years of experience counseling children, adults, couples, and families and am here to offer you support as you push through the obstacles in the way of your path to good health and well-being.

You don't have to feel the way you are feeling forever. You have tried a number of different things and things aren’t working. You're not sure where to start but feel that doing it alone seems impossible and daunting. The individual I typically see feels stuck and wants to make the necessary changes to improve their communication for self and others, build their self-esteem and confidence, process emotions, and recover. Therapy provides a nonjudgmental space to work through life's hardships and stressors. Change can be very difficult however so is staying in the same place.

We all have times where we can use a little help with challenges in our lives. "How you look at it is pretty much how you'll see it." ~ Rasheed Ogunlaru

Life can be complicated and overwhelming at times. In response to difficult situations people often lose sight of themselves, which can create internal conflict, leading to external issues. Integrity Counseling and Wellness provides individual, group, and family counseling to help create awareness and understanding of how to get back to 'Me'. Our approach to the internal conflict includes a holistic perspective that brings about a sense of wholeness from the dis-ease of life's challenges. Change can be an uncomfortable and scary process. With the help of professionals that understand the normalcy of crisis situations, the process of healing, growth, and truth is attainable.

You can call me Cathy. Are you stuck in your head, overthinking, and/or experiencing physical symptoms of depression, anxiety or trauma? As we go through the experience of life, we learn things about our environment and how to function within that environment. We are always learning and sometimes our brain solidifies messages that are harmful to our mental health, I want to help you restructure those messages so that they are more accurate or helpful. Additionally, I will assist you in the development of skills to manage strong emotions and finally assist you to form solutions to your problems.

Stressed out? Overwhelmed? Wondering how to find your way back to a life you enjoy living instead of just going through the motions? As adult women we tend to take on too much and put everyone and everything before ourselves. We often feel depleted and want life to be different, but we keep doing the same thing. As a college student, stress and unhealthy relationships become your norm. As a teenager, insecurities, stress, and social media put you on a path filled with anxiety, depression, and self doubt. I'd like to help you get back on track, find some inner peace amidst all the chaos, and have fun along the way.
