Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am licensed in South Carolina with 20 years of professional counseling work experience. Your story and how you experience your life is yours to share. My job is to witness it, and do my best to understand how you have made your life work for you so far. Then, together we can explore alternate perspectives, nuances, colors, flavors, shapes and constructs that you may (or may not) wish to include.
I can help you re-create, add to, or re-envision the rest of your story. I want to help you discover and utilize perspectives and ideas and strengths that will assist you in creating new feelings and experiences; experiences that can be useful for replacing or challenging feelings or thoughts that distress you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards exploring possibilities. I hope to support & empower you in that journey.

For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes – online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. This makes virtual care a viable option for people seeking meaningful therapeutic support.
One of the main benefits is flexibility. Individuals can meet with a therapist in the format that fits their needs and schedule, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility can make it easier to maintain continuity of care amid busy or changing routines.
All participating clinicians are licensed professionals, and people may choose to switch therapists at any time if they seek a different fit. Online therapy offers an accessible way to pursue support from qualified therapists while accommodating personal preferences and life demands.
