I specialize in working with folks navigating the complexities of anxiety, life stress, and trauma. Clients are drawn to me when they are seeking support to alleviate the weight of these challenges and regain a sense of inner peace and stability. Their primary need is to feel heard, understood, and validated in their experiences. They are not searching for quick fixes or superficial solutions but instead crave genuine connection and empathetic guidance.

As a therapist deeply committed to your well-being, I offer more than just expertise; I provide genuine care and unwavering support on your journey to healing. With me as your guide, you can trust that you're not just another client – you're a valued individual deserving of compassionate care and meaningful change.

Therapist

Virtual • South Carolina


I have been a Social Worker for 30 years! That's crazy for me to think about because I am not THAT old......and I have learned a lot (about myself) along the way. I have learned that I do like to talk to people more than I let on. I have learned that I can be very patient listener and I give good feedback. And, I have learned that, at some point, we all have to make changes in our lives and that can be scary. I have also learned it's not as scary when we talk about it out loud........just saying.

Hello and welcome! While maintaining an eclectic approach, my purpose is to provide you with a collaborative partnership in which you control the direction of

therapy. I serve to provide a non-judgmental approach toward presenting issues and with the

collaborative effort help identify goals that would translate to facilitative action outside of the clinic

through various treatment options.
