Grief Therapists in Myrtle Beach, SC

I'm a certified EMDR therapist by EMDRIA. I use this approach to help adult survivors of emotional, physical and/or sexual trauma. I specialize in treating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Grief , and Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). My passion is to help you break through the emotional blocks that are negatively influencing your present thoughts and emotions, and keeping you from living a fulfilling life.

My passion is to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health and to help clients work through issues and emotions that are keeping them stuck. Emotions that are common to us all can become overwhelming. Counseling is the solution to understanding how our emotions can keep us stuck in life and how to overcome negative emotions. I have successfully helped clients of all ages and backgrounds with anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and maritial issues.

Life’s adversities can be tough to navigate! Sometimes to overcome certain challenges, one may need professional counseling. I provide a warm, comfortable, and non-judgmental space for my clients. I am compassionate and available to see children/teens/adults in the following capacity: indvidual/couple/group/family counseling sessions. I have both professional and firsthand experiences to offer my clients. In fact, my firsthand experiences have not only inspired me to become a Licensed Professional Counselor but has fueled my passion to help others in my areas of focus.

Life is hard. Hope is found in facing the reality of your past and present. The goal of treatment that I strive for is for you to become all you were created to be; to be healed from the pain of the past, and move into the possibilities of the future. Whatever the past has thrown your way; whatever you are facing today; whatever future challenges are producing fear and anxiety, I would consider it a privilege to help you overcome your hurts, habits, and hang-ups. The past cannot be changed...the future is yet in your power. Don't let your past dictate who you are....Let it be part of who you will become.

I find it a privilege to assist clients in their journey through life’s challenges and guiding them towards self awareness and personal growth. Since I understand that therapy can be a vulnerable place, I take pride in helping clients find joy and healing in the therapy process. I approach each client with “unconditional positive regard” and structure each session with the individual’s needs in mind. I believe that by facilitating a nurturing environment with a client centered focus, it enhances the healing process as it relates to trauma, unresolved grief , and abuse that underlies many mental health issues.

It is possible to feel better! Trauma, stress, and life changes are often difficult to face alone. My practice, Rincon Counseling, translates to "a turning place," a safe, supportive space in which no one has to face these challenges alone. I offer adult counseling for issues of depression, anxiety, grief , PTSD, abuse survivors,

I began my work with the HIV/AIDS population, the homeless population and those who struggled with drug abuse. Spending many years with these precious people, provided me with insight of how the mind and the heart works. It was the perfect foundation to my understanding human pain and resilience, as I had to work with many diagnosis. I am a Christian psychotherapist but I have a deep understanding of the religions of many of our world's cultures, therefore my "doors are open" to people of all faiths. I am happy to use your personal faith to help you find meaning in your challenges.

If you’ve found yourself struggling or questioning who you truly are, what makes you happy, how to find peace, or how to restore your joy, therapy can help.

As such, I will work with you to achieve your desired goals in a manner that respects your personal values.

Life can be hard, full of changes, challenges, and transitions. Navigating the twists and turns can sometimes be too much on your own. Experiences shape our beliefs about who we are and our place in the world. I work with my clients to help them find their strengths and figure out what motivates them to become more personally effective in daily life. We will work together to find new perspectives and new possibilities for happiness. I have a passion for helping kids and teens create personal change and flourish.

As a Licensed Social Worker, my mission is to help you find a healthy direction in life. There is power and potential in all of us for healing and growth. I assist my clients in understanding the interplay of the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that contribute to the distress in their lives. Clients begin to find hope when recognizable patterns emerge. Hope grows when these patterns are understood and accepted in the context of their past experiences. Change occurs with ongoing feedback, practice and encouragement. Challenging times can offer opportunity for self discovery and enhancement.

As a counselor with 16 years experience, I believe in the human capacity for healing and change. I work with adults, adolescents, and children over 6 years old, both individually and in couples and family therapy. I often work with those who are struggling to cope with grief , stress, interpersonal relationships, and/or substance abuse. My goal is to provide a safe space for you to process your thoughts, feelings, reactions, and behaviors in order to develop a new outlook and find new ways to respond to life. I will strive to empower you, helping you to make improvements that are positive, effective, and meaningful to your goals.

I offer a safe place and a listening ear on your journey to wholeness. You will be empowered by God to live your life more fully as your hope is reborn.

Making the decision to participate in therapy is a big step. I applaud you for making this decision because I know it is not an easy one. Maybe you are suddenly in the midst of an emotional crisis. Something happened such as a breakup, a death , job loss or many other possibilities. Now what? How to deal with this pain or grief , loss or stressful situation. By forming a relationship with a neutral outside person who has training in these matters, you can begin to get a handle of what is going on for you, identify your thoughts and feelings and develop a plan for positive change.

In today’s world there are no easy peaks. Individuals are burnt out, stressed, overwhelmed, and some may even feel defeated. Years ago I heard the saying, “Sometimes it takes more courage to ask for help than to act alone.” (Ken Petti). And I am here to tell you that you are not alone and that help is available.

I believe that everyone deserves to be heard and respected especially during difficult times. Although family and friends can provide love and support, sometimes we need someone who can be totally objective. I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can express needs and leave feeling heard and empowered to make positive changes in your life. Each person enters therapy with a unique set of issues and needs. Together we will develop a treatment plan that is right for you. My goal is to help you heal, grow and discover strengths you didn’t even know you had.
