Tired of feeling stressed, overwhelmed and unmotivated? Do you find yourself struggling to make time for yourself? The women that I work with often have full schedules with work, family, children, school and everything else, with very little time to prioritize their own health and well-being. They are typically in need of better coping strategies to help manage their symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression. Their goals are usually to feel mentally, emotionally and physically stronger to allow them to feel more confident and focused in their day to day life.

Anastasis is the Greek word for which we derive the word "resurrection" meaning "raising up or rising up." Finding the ability to rise above life's challenges can leave you feeling hopeless and the journey to reconnect with life can often be a difficult one, especially when your journey includes recovery from traumatic events or struggles with substance addiction. I am here to walk along side you and help equip you for the bright future that awaits you. I believe you can hope again, you can dream again, your joy will be restored and your strength renewed. Yes, you can get up again!!!

Depression and anxiety can be very difficult to manage on a day to day basis. If you have been feeling sad, tired, no motivation, or having thoughts of suicide, you are probably experiencing depression. Are you tired of being in a state of uneasiness, apprehension resulting from fear of future uncertainties (realistic or fantasized) then you are probably experiencing anxiety. You can have relief from depression and anxiety through ongoing support and skills development experienced in counseling.

Do any of these statements sound familiar? "I feel like I'm going crazy!" "Life feels out of control!" "I'm a mess!" Sometimes life feels out of control and you may feel "crazy" or a "mess". Unloading the burden with a trusted person in a safe and confidential environment, knowing you aren't being judged, condemned or criticized can be freeing. Life can be hard! Some seasons are more difficult than others. My passion is to serve individuals, couples and families in a way that influences the whole family toward growth and health.

As a therapist I believe in coming along side another and providing the support that is needed to move forward and be comfortable with being you. I believe that everyone deserves to have a safe space to process, not be judged, and receive support. I understand how it feels to be misunderstood and to want to move forward and not know the first step.

My passion as a Sexual Addiction Therapist comes from a life-long struggle with my sexual addiction. From a very young age, I entered a highly sexualized world, including sexual abuse by five different men from age five to fourteen. All of these men played a significant and trusting role in my life. When I was eleven years old, losing my father to emphysema forced me to grow up overnight into an overcompensating perfectionist. Perfect student, perfect son, and later a perfect member of the United States Air Force created an unsustainable persona.

My ideal client would be someone who is prepared to complete tasks that are agreed upon in-session between the client and the therapist. The client would complete these tasks, on their own, away from the session, and would review the results in the next weekly session. I believe that any change that is made in a client's life, even the tiniest, has the potential to be a positive force for overall change. These series of small changes can build momentum, session to session, that ultimately empowers the client to live the life that they want to live. I believe in the power of therapy to provide recovery for anyone who tries.

Life can be hard and just "raggedy" at times. I know and I get it. For some, reaching out for help is the last thing you may want to do but I would love to walk with you on your journey to healing. Would you believe me if I told you that the answers you are seeking are already within you? I will merely be your guide and safe place to allow you to discover these answers. There is so much more in store for you versus the current narrative you have been rehearsing to yourself.

You are here because you are feeling stuck, afraid, desperate, lost, or engaging in excessive overthinking and negative thoughts. Making the decision to start therapy is one of the toughest, scariest, and most intimidating choices to make in life, so I would like to be the first to congratulate you on taking this “leap of faith” and starting your healing journey. My treatment focuses primarily on treating children, adolescents, young adults, and adults with past trauma, depression, low self-esteem, college/student issues, grief, and women's issues.

A common myth is that LMFT’s work only with families/couples; I love working with both of those as well as with individuals! I am passionate about working with motivated, open-minded clients willing to be creative in pairing to make shifts in thinking, the handling of emotions, and behavioral responses. I’m less focused on the specifics of the presenting problem and more on a person’s process when dealing with it. This means I feel competent in working with most presentations to include, but not limited to anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, grief, relational conflict, mood swings, etc.

We are all, says Virginia Satir “basic miracles.” But sometimes it doesn’t feel that way, especially when you feel depressed, anxious, stressed or stuck. You may feel that you've lost your way. You may wish you didn't fight so much - with your kids or with your spouse/significant other. I believe counseling brings hope and healing. I work with diverse individuals, couples, teens & parents (or anyone raising children). A special passion is parents/caregivers raising child(ren) with disabilities, including autism. I can help you begin again, take care of yourself so you can care for your kids, or rekindle a romantic relationship.

Fellas, it's pretty scary when you've lost your confidence. It creates feelings of guilt and shame. The silent embarrassment causes you to question your self-worth. Lack of confidence affects the way you feel about yourself, and it effects your family financially. You're afraid to take risks because you no longer believe in yourself. Your relationship has begun to suffer in every way. No connection. No romance. No sex. You want to perform at your peak in business and have a fulfilling relationship, but you must first raise your self-concept to cultivate the courage to re-establish your confidence. Its doable. Believe in yourself!

How can I find a therapist in West Columbia?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
