Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Camden, SC


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in working with children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of settings. I began my career as a substance use counselor, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding how life stressors, trauma, and mental health challenges are often interconnected. This experience led me to expand my training to better support individuals with a wide range of concerns.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, anger management, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting clients navigating grief, family challenges, and difficulties with emotional regulation and relationships. I use evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), DBT, motivational interviewing, client-centered approaches, and play-based interventions to meet clients where they are developmentally and emotionally.
