Therapists in South Carolina

Hello! I'm dedicated to helping individuals heal from sexual, physical, and emotional abuse trauma. Do you want to build more positive relationships with healthy boundaries? Break old mindsets & unhealthy patterns that create unbearable anxiety & depression? Exploring questions of faith, identity, purpose or sexuality? Struggling to balance family, work &/or school related stress? No matter the struggle, you deserve compassion, patience, humility, acceptance, and a felt sense of safety and belonging along your healing journey. Healing is not linear & therapy should be creative!

Accepting New Clients. We help adults transcend their painful past of childhood and/or sexual trauma to create healthier parenting connections and interpersonal relationships. Are you and your partner struggling to relate to one another? Are you not feeling fulfilled with your current life? Do you feel disconnected from family and friends? Do you find it difficult to make and keep relationships? Do you give and give in hope others will give back to you? Do your thoughts and emotions stop you from moving forward? Does any of this cause you to spend more time alone or cloud your judgement?

Are negative past experiences impacting the way you view yourself and how you interact with others? Do you feel alone with your problems, or stuck in patterns of behavior that are self-defeating? Trauma, anxiety, or depression may be getting in the way of your happiness and growth.You can learn to live without the constant nagging and badgering of perfectionism, people pleasing, anxiety and depression. You can implement healthy boundaries that support the life you want to be living. I use evidence-based practices, rooted in compassion and empathy, to help you find healing and a feeling of empowerment. You deserve to enjoy your life.

We're in this together. Counseling is a collaborative process between client and practitioner. When you show up with desire to create meaningful life change, I show up to support you in reaching goals, provide expertise in brain-based techniques to address current concerns, and equip you with specific skills to more successfully cope with challenges. Together, we will tailor the process to meet you where you are in the present moment and create a more balanced life.

Are you going through a difficult time of loss or upheaval and change? Do you have strained or troubled relationships, painful or difficult thoughts or emotions? Are you looking to be more creative or maybe just seeking to live a more fulfilling life? I work with clients to help them live and love with increased creativity and insight. I offer targeted, evidence-based therapy to help those with troubling thoughts and emotions adjust effectively and move on. I have experience in treating trauma, anxiety, and depression as well as helping individuals working through mid-life or late-life transitions.

A wonderful person once said to me, “we are on this journey together. So I will believe in you and have hope for you on the days you cannot have it for yourself.” I have carried these words with me into my therapeutic ideals. These words speak to my beliefs about what therapy should be; a journey I take, as a guardian, with my clients, as unique individuals. There are so many reasons to begin your journey. So many reasons to heal. And each of those reasons, no matter what they are, no matter if you aren’t even really aware of what they are yet, are valid.

Your past and your present do not have to define your future. Instead, it can be used to propel you forward and help you to become the person that you want to be. Many of my clients enter therapy feeling trapped, stuck, or weighed down by life circumstances. It doesn't have to be this way. I am equipped to work with clients on a variety of issues, but my specialty is working with individuals who have experienced trauma or issues related to attachment (physically and/or emotionally absent parent, adoption, or foster care).

I am here for those of you feeling lost, overwhelmed, defeated, or unsure how to move forward. Maybe you're feeling anxious or depressed and you've lost touch with the part of you that felt joy or purpose in life. Maybe you’ve experienced a traumatic event and need help processing this and moving forward. Or maybe you're experiencing some big life transitions and you don't feel emotionally prepared to handle them. These are all common human experiences that are worthy of confronting and working through to find peace and satisfaction.

Hello! Thank you for reading! I am focused on helping individuals pursue wholeness and addressing roadblocks to flourishing. Every person has flourishing and wholeness as a birthright. Every person has within them the capacity to heal when the desire to do so is embraced. I enjoy getting to know the unique qualities of the individuals I work with and collaborate with clients to find just the right treatment plan to address the issues of concern. If you are struggling with a known issue like depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, relational discord, or, if life just seems to be not optimal, counseling can help!

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, the effects of trauma, or relationship challenges? I provide a safe nonjudgmental space to facilitate your healing and growth. As a counselor, art therapist, and Ph.D. Mind Body Medicine degree candidate, I view clients holistically. When someone is experiencing anxiety or other mental health issues I work with them to make positive changes that reduce symptoms and lead to greater overall well-being. In addition, I help clients identify and change patterns of interacting with others that are causing challenges in their relationships.

Beyond fear are pathways of hope and new beginnings! Essential Pathways Counseling, Wellness and Consulting, PLLC strives to foster an environment that promotes healing, wellness, and positive transformation. Recognizing that trauma, substance misuse, depression, and anxiety can complicate building a life worth living, we promote recovery and healing by diminishing fear and creating new pathways and skills towards intentional living.

With over 16 years experience as a licensed therapist, I'm passionate about building rapport and, from this basis, providing high-quality treatment. In working with couples, I maintain a good therapeutic relationship with both clients and take a balanced approach where each partner is empowered to speak up and share in their progress. When working with anxious clients, I assist clients in defining what anxiety is and what it does so that they can recognize and challenge it as they develop new coping skills. In treating trauma, I help clients feel empowered to step into their work before starting Brainspotting or EMDR sessions.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, anger or low self-esteem or did you grow up in an abusive home? Are you married to someone who is abusive emotionally or physically or have you discovered your spouse's infidelity? If you are struggling with any of these symptoms or to trust in your relationship, let us work together so we can develop a plan of how to reduce your symptoms, increase your self esteem, work through the abuse of child/adulthood, or address the trauma of infidelity.

Welcome! I’m a therapist based in the Carolinas that specializes in sex therapy. I often work with people with sexual concerns that impact their relationships, self esteem, or overall quality of life. I want you to know that if this is you, you are not alone. Sexual concerns can be some of the most challenging and sensitive issues to address, but I believe that they don't have to be a barrier to fulfilling relationships or personal satisfaction. I can help you navigate these complex issues with empathy and knowledge, all while offering a non-judgmental and affirming approach tailored to your needs.

I am currently accepting new clients for telehealth. My priority is helping you find the solution that works best for you, by listening carefully and asking the right questions before working with you to create a tailored plan to address your needs. I genuinely care about people and use a variety of modalities, theoretical perspectives, and techniques to create a strong therapeutic relationship in a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment.

Most of the work I do is with people struggling with the impact of trauma, including destructive behaviors and conflicted relationships. As a trauma survivor, I know how difficult it can be to rebuild your life and to learn to trust yourself and others. I am committed to helping my clients identify the sources of their pain, learn to tolerate those emotions, and develop new ways to cope and to live.
