I am a licensed counselor in SC and NC, and I've worked in the counseling field for nine years. I have experience working with people who have disabilities, career challenges, major life transitions, mental health needs, and trauma-related symptoms. I have worked in various settings that include a college, a state mental health center, and in private practice. My top counseling specialties include trauma-related conditions, anxiety, depression, and attention-related symptoms.
I provide a collaborative approach, where you're heard, but you will also receive adequate feedback, so that you don't feel the therapy session is a one-way street. I blend together multiple counseling approaches such as Solution-Focused, Trauma-Informed, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy depending on your needs. I provide clients a safe place to talk, but also want clients to feel like they're gaining practical knowledge that will help them more independently outside of therapy.
In therapy, you can expect a warm and non-judgmental space. My goal is to meet you where you are and build the therapeutic atmosphere based on your strengths and needs. My overall goal as a therapist is for you to feel confident to apply the skills learned in therapy in everyday life.
