Sexual Abuse Therapists in Gilbert, SC

Life is Complicated! Depression, anxiety, divorce and all sorts of traumatic experiences are issues that make life difficult, messy and at times unbearable. These issues cause havoc in daily functions that results in confusion, guilt, and shame. They rob you of the happiness, and the joy that you desire to live and the purpose filled life you were created to experience. I work with those who are experiencing issues related to depression, anxiety and stress, trauma related to childhood and adult sexual abuse, divorce, grief, anger and other issues that prohibit a fulfilling life.

What we call a beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from. -T.S. Eliot. Feeling lost and alone in our ends and our beginnings is normal. I believe change is hard and peace of mind sometimes requires the support of a caring professional. I want to be your advocate, a cheerleader on your sideline, and a partner empowering you on your journey towards healing. I passionately believe in working love into my therapy and supporting clients.

Navigating the ups and downs of childhood and adolescence can be quite a challenge, and that's where I step in. As a seasoned therapist who specializes in working with kids and teens, I'm here to create a safe, empathetic, and understanding space. It's all about giving those young minds the guidance and support they need to truly thrive.

As your therapist, I hope to help you experience long lasting recovery and healing. Through our work together, you will learn to develop a relationship with your thoughts and emotions rather than trying to control or push them away, how to change the way you cope with and handle stressors, and how to unpack how your life experiences, family dynamics, and relationships have affected your sense of self, emotional health and ability to feel as though you have choice in your life.

Hello, I am a Nationally Board Certified Licensed Professional Counselor. I've spent several years working as a Licensed Nurse and LPC. I work with all ages; children, teens and adults, with trauma, excessive worry, depression, mood disorders, impulsivity, ADHD, social anxiety, other serious emotional disturbances. Always person centered and/or trauma-focused. We each have a voice and when life is hard, sometimes we don't always feel we can speak up. In therapy we will find your voice and hopefully you will feel you can talk about the things going on in your life in a safe space, never with judgement.

My therapy philosophy is based around a core belief in the beauty and importance of the individual and family. When I work with children and families, I believe I'm in the presence of something sacred. Parents want to be the best they can be, and they are doing miraculous things, every day. I love to hold up a proverbial mirror and let parents and caregivers see what I see: Good Stuff. Problems appear in the best of families.

Life can hand us unforeseen experiences. Loss, death, or illness. Relationship challenges or disappointments. Seemingly unmanageable anxiety or depression. Work-related problems. Traumatic events or abuse. How do we cope with the effects upon our thoughts, feelings, and behavior? How do we get back to thriving again? I offer you an opportunity to encounter such issues together. You can confront painful or confusing emotions, thoughts, or circumstances knowing you're not alone. I hope to help you discover strengths within yourself and learn additional skills that facilitate your own ability to heal, recover, and restore the hurting places in your mind, emotions, relationships, and life.

Life is often hard, no matter who you are. The story of our lives are filled with moments and seasons of challenge, change, and confusion. Life is filled with many deeply transformative experiences, for both good and bad. Thus, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Especially if we feel like there are few people who can offer meaningful help. Fortunately, life also offers significant positive growth and healing opportunities. These opportunities can create a pathway, orienting us toward the direction we want to go. That's when we begin to better position ourselves to experience the outcomes in life we hope to achieve.

Accepting New Clients (in-person and telehealth).
