Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Goose Creek, SC

I am an Associate-Licensed Professional Counselor (LPCA). I received my education & started my professional career of counseling in Pennsylvania and have recently moved to the area for a new beginning at the east coast. My approach in therapy is to create a strong therapeutic alliance where my clients feel trusted and safe to share their stories. I practice with a trauma-informed, cognitive behavioral foundation; focusing on the relation of one’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Is your relationship struggling and you are considering couples counseling? All relationships go through rough patches but sometimes we need help from an objective outsider who can offer insight and direction on how to move beyond past hurts and move towards a relationship with better communication and respect for each other's differences. Or is it that you have been feeling so much anxiety, stress, and depression that you feel you have no idea how to manage your daily emotions? We all have times where we need a supportive person and someone to help empower us to get back to our best self.

My goal in working with you is to support you in processing your life experiences and to empower you through the use of relevant therapeutic resources. These resources could include: cognitive behavioral therapy, strength-based therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, art therapy, meditation/flow state, solution-focused therapy, and positive psychology. As a therapist, I also believe that taking a holistic approach is incredibly important to personal growth, which means examining all parts of your life: spiritual, physical, mental, nutritional, and relational.

I began my career as an inpatient clinician and hospital social worker serving all ages, a variety of mental health issues, backgrounds, genders, and economic disparities. My primary focus as a hospital social worker was on the Labor and Delivery Unit as a support for new parents, particularly mothers. I also worked in the NICU supporting parents of premature babies. I’m extremely passionate about perinatal and postpartum mental health! Maternal mental health is no longer taking a back burner!

Accepting clients for waitlist only! The issues of life can be overwhelming. I am passionate about helping those suffering with issues holding their lives hostage. You and I can become a team and work on the issues together. Everyone can benefit from talk therapy. We all need a listening ear when life issues come knocking on our door.

As a trauma therapist, I work with clients to develop healthy coping strategies to promote wellness as it relates to the impact of trauma or stressful experiences from the past. I typically incorporate various techniques including art, nature, and breath-work into traditional evidence based therapies. I will start by asking you to think about what you will be doing, thinking, and feeling differently when you don't need therapy anymore. We can then collaborate to create a roadmap to meet your goals. Sometimes even thinking about the end goal can be scary; that's ok, we can figure it out together!

I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have over 30 years of practice and experience in the fields of Social work and mental health. I have worked in a variety of settings including clinics, hospitals, prisons and a Managed care company. Currently I maintain a private practice in North Charleston,SC. I accept a variety of insurances and offer sliding scale fees as well for those without insurance. Please see my website: http://www.ethornelisw.com

Mental well-being is absolutely essential to overall wellness! There are highs and lows in life, so conflict and troubles are inevitable. You may be trying to navigate dealing with difficult people, stopping the cycle of unhealthy relationships, or healing from unjust treatment, or growing up in a non-nurturing environment to name a few. In other cases, biological, environmental, or situational factors can contribute to common mental disorders such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD which impair your ability to think and feel at your best. Being understood and given the necessary tools to navigate these challenges is imperative.

When someone asks you how you’re doing, do you just say “fine” and change the subject? ​ Do you feel like you need to smile and keep up appearances even with the people you love? If you suffer from depression, anxiety or you feel like you need to work hard to fit in and please the people around you, counseling may help. ​Counseling can bring you from a less than honest “I’m fine” to a wholehearted “I’m doing well.” ​ Our licensed therapists listen and hold space for you to see your own inherent worth and beauty. It’s our job to walk beside you and support you as you find your path.

I work to meet people where they are in their phase of life. My goal is to assist you in identifying your strengths, goals and passion to empower change. The name of my practice comes from the gem, Amethyst. Known as a meditative and calming stone that works in the emotional, spiritual, and physical planes to promote calm, balance and peace. That sums up my ultimate therapeutic goal.
