Are you dealing with spiritual abuse, religious trauma, clergy abuse, clergy sexual misconduct, existential angst, or questioning your faith?

I'd love to collaborate with you in your care, human to human. I believe you know yourself best. I can help you learn to use your own knowledge to create more space and openness for growth.

Feeling isolated and confused? You are not alone and there is HOPE. Hello, my name is Michelle and I am a Holistic Psychotherapist located in South Carolina. My approach to therapy is holistic and addresses all aspects of who you are as a person. Holistic Psychotherapy incorporates evidenced based methods to reduce distress physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Ready to talk? I invite you into a safe and inclusive counseling space where your voice will be heard, and your experiences will be valued. I strive to foster a caring and empathetic atmosphere, where you can freely express your thoughts, emotions, and concerns. I have experience working with late adolescents and adults, specifically members of the QTBIPOC community. I understand that issues related to anxiety, sexuality, spirituality, identity concerns, LGBTQ+ topics, and depression can be complex and deeply personal.

Life is hard. If the difficulties you face are overwhelming, having another person walk with you may make all the difference. Therapy can be a means to identify and overcome challenges in your life, and those of your loved ones, and provide you the healing and courage you need to live and love to the fullest. My experience treating issues including trauma, depression, anxiety, anger, spirituality, grief, men's issues, and marriage/relationships, enable me to accompany you through the dark seasons of your life, and help you find hope when it is hard to find.

I help individual adults and couples to navigate relationships, explore emotions, and gain freedom from past wounds. I focus on the therapeutic relationship and the present-moment in the counseling room. I collaborate with you to process your experience, your family system, and interactions with other people in your life. I enjoy working with counselors, pastors, and other ministry workers.

Sometimes, it's overwhelming trying to 'keep up' or 'fix' things on your own. Maybe you don't know exactly what you need, but you know you want to feel better. There may be things from your past that you have tried to move past, but they just keep creeping up again. I strive to come alongside individuals and families of all ages to help them overcome challenges, find meaning and joy in life, experience renewed strength, find true hope, and become mentally and emotionally healthy individuals. My core methods are evidence based and I keep a wholistic perspective- recognizing people as physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual beings.

I believe that we live in challenging times. Many people find it difficult to feel confident and self assured, have peaceful, fulfilling relationships, navigate the demands of finances, family, work and home, and also focus on nourishing self care. These challenges are interconnected. They are related to how we have developed our sense of self in the context of family expectations and experiences, societal demands, cultural assumptions, and media influence. It is necessary for all of us to learn how to live our best lives in these particular circumstances. You are not alone.

I have worked in a variety of counseling and mental health settings for over 27 yrs. I have had the opportunity to work with individuals, couples and families with issues such as mood disorders, marital conflict, addiction, parenting and major life adjustment situations such as divorce, unemployment, and major health changes.

Life can become especially difficult at times, to the point that your best efforts are not making a difference. Your point of concern may be with mental health, relationship or family, job or career, marriage, athletic performance, or spiritual life. You need more than pat answers. What you want is the opportunity to be heard in a safe, confidential place. What you long for is to be understood, and to discover what will help bring about improvement, restoration, and transformation.

I believe that each individual already possesses the solutions to the challenges they face. My role as a counselor and a healer is to be a companion in the discovery of those solutions. I am a reliable guide with over 25 years of experience working with people of all ages. I specialize in helping people during major life transitions, times of grief & loss, and with trauma recovery. During my 11 years in Hospice, I learned how to help people navigate the many challenges that come with grief and loss. ​ As a long time meditation instructor, one of the hallmarks of my practice is the use of meditation as a tool for healing.

Now accepting new clients! My counseling approach is largely based on Motivational Interviewing (MI), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I have interests specifically in the areas of grief and loss, marriage & couples’ relational issues, and family of origin issues. I see my role as a counselor as a partner who works with the client to process feelings, find healing, and regain hope. I believe that each client can navigate the challenges and the changes life brings and am committed to helping my clients work toward achieving symptom reduction, more self-awareness, & increased confidence.

The first time looking through Psychology Today profiles can be overwhelming. It can still be overwhelming even if you’ve done it many times. You may already be feeling so stuck, so low, so unmotivated and maybe even be asking yourself the question, “what’s wrong with me?”. If that’s the case, combing through these profiles with so many words can feel like a lot. There is no shame in feeling that way and you are certainly not alone. My hope for you and everyone looking for help is that you can find a space where you feel safe and connected to work on why you are struggling.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the stress of life? Has life come at you, and you feel hopeless,worthless, stuck, broken, depleted, or depressed? Are you dealing with unhealthy habits or past trauma that you feel is hindering you from being your best self, or do you desire to gain more purpose for your life? I will work with you in a supportive manner to find solutions, direction, balance, and help you gain a better perspective on your life.

Our childhood wounds don’t just go away. They shape the way our nervous system responds to stress, the way we seek connection, & the meaning we make of our experiences. Many people don’t even realize how much their past affects them, especially if they never suffered any horrific trauma. But let me tell you what you may notice instead. Your heart and mind races for no reason at all. You react defensively rather than responding calmly. You keep thinking about what you “should” do rather than what you NEED. You work so hard but still feel empty. It’s never enough.

If you live in or near the South Carolina upstate and are looking for a therapist or counselor, you have found the right place! I work with all types of clients who are seeking assistance with a wide range of concerns. Are you experiencing depression or anxiety? Are you going through a difficult life transition? Or, are you in need of marriage counseling? Take a look at my website to see some of the most common reasons why people choose Peaceful Haven Therapy.

I am a Licensed, Psychologist (Clinical) with over twenty-five years of experience in treating individuals with various problems in living. It is clear that each client's problems are unique and deserve personal and careful assessment. Subsequent treatment should be supportive and paced accordingly. Clients present because they want something to change and this is the goal of most therapy. It is particularly important to take the mystery out of mental health and this is always achieved.

Waitlist for NEW clients. You're looking for support in the journey when relationships are hard, change is difficult, and some days it's hard to imagine things getting better. I help individuals work toward overcoming stress, anxiety, and life change to achieve their goals. I help couples and families work toward reconnection, conflict resolution, and improved communication. With my Christian faith background, I welcome the opportunity to integrate clients’ personal faith into treatment.
