Hi! I am D'Arion, I’m a therapist and the founder of Sincerely, your brain., LLC. My approach is rooted in warmth, authenticity, and creating a safe space where clients can truly be themselves.

I specialize in working with children through play therapy, supporting them in expressing emotions, building coping skills, and navigating life’s challenges in developmentally appropriate ways. In addition, I have a deep passion for supporting young women and college students as they transition into adulthood—navigating identity, independence, and all of the changes that come with this stage of life.

Right now, I’m also pursuing my doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision, which keeps me closely connected to both current research and the training of future counselors.

My specific areas of focus include:

  • Anxiety and stress management
  • Life transitions (student transitions, adulthood, career shifts)
  • Women’s mental health
  • Supporting Black women, Black teens, and communities of color with culturally responsive care

At the heart of my work is the belief that therapy should feel collaborative, empowering, and tailored to each person’s story. Whether we’re building play-based strategies for a child, or talking through the complex realities of being a Black woman navigating today’s world, I’m here to listen, support, and grow alongside you.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist providing telehealth therapy to adults and couples in South Carolina and Florida. I work with individuals and couples who feel emotionally stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—often related to relationship stress, anxiety, life transitions, or faith-related concerns.

My professional background is rooted in relational and systems-based therapy, with focused experience in working with couples, marital conflict, communication breakdowns, emotional regulation, and identity or self-worth concerns. I frequently support clients navigating separation decisions, trust issues, chronic stress, and relational uncertainty.

For clients who desire it, I also offer a biblically based, psychologically and therapeutically validated approach, thoughtfully integrating faith with evidence-based clinical care.

As an Asian American & combat veteran, I know firsthand the weight of trauma, transitions and the unique challenges men face when carrying invisible wounds. My practice is dedicated to serving veterans, first responders, and others who have experienced trauma, as well as, men navigating identity, relationships, and resilience. I strive to create a space where you feel understood, respected, and supported without judgement. I bring a blend of dividends-based therapies and specialized in training to help clients heal and grow. I utilize CBT-I to address sleep issues, IFS, and ACT to help clients heal.

For couples, I bring my Level II Gottman Method training to support partners in rebuilding trust, improving communication, and navigating conflict in healthier ways. Whether you are facing the aftermath of combat, the pressures of first responder work, or the complexity of men’s issues, therapy is about developing practice skills and exploring deeper healing.

I know what it’s like to feel the pressure to “tough it out” or stay silent. Therapy with me is about creating a space where you don’t have to. If you’re ready to explore a path forward-whether in individual or couples therapy- I’d be honored to walk with you.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Mount Pleasant, SC

Searching for therapists in Mount Pleasant starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

Mount Pleasant has local therapy options, but the number of in-person appointments may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your choices across South Carolina while still keeping care covered by your plan, when your benefits include virtual visits. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, provides a free phone consultation, or has a communication style that feels like a good match. Reading profiles before booking can help you see how each therapist describes their approach and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Mount Pleasant can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
