Strength-Based Therapists in Spartanburg, SC

Accepting Life on Life's terms can be difficult at times. Its ok and even healthy to reach out for support. You get to choose who you trust and with whom you feel most comfortable reaching out for that support. Counseling and problem solving with a clinician in an office setting can provide a 'sounding board' & objective feedback in a mutually respectful and professional way. I look forward with my customers to an opportunity to grow and learn through their experiences, assisting at times to extract meaning from their suffering.

You are struggling and you aren’t sure how to stop it. To everyone else you look happy and seem to be thriving, but it doesn't feel true. When you aren’t with others, you are down on yourself, worrying, avoiding situations and moody. There may be a clear cause from a difficult situation, or it may be you are struggling with all that life is demanding right now. No matter what the cause I have worked with people just like your and seen them move from struggling to become the thriving individual you know is inside. I have minimal availability at this time.
