Are you exhausted at the end of your work day, burned out, or physically sick more often than in the past? As a partner, parent, friend, caregiver, compassion and empathy drive your work, requiring an emotional investment in other people that leaves you drained. It can be difficult to set aside time for your own emotional needs. After all, we have been trained to fully focus on the mental health and well-being of other people. You want to provide the best care for those you love or who are in your care, so you try to focus fully on their needs, which leaves no energy for yourself at the end of the day.
Taking good care of others starts with taking care of your own mental health and well-being. Anxiety, depression, and substance use are just a few signs of compassion fatigue. I can help with these issues, and others, such as vicarious trauma and unresolved trauma. I use a systemic approach, meaning I work with people in the context of their relationships.
Before the cost of compassion becomes too much, call me. Together, we can increase your emotional resilience and improve your mental wellness. Call today for your free initial phone consultation. I am an AAMFT Approved Supervisor and South Carolina LMFT Supervisor; contact me if you would like to explore establishing a supervisory relationship.

Treatment is always tailored to the client's needs and goals. While I often pull from cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, or narrative therapy, and generally utilize a strengths-based approach, I tailor treatment approaches to better meet each client's needs.
