Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and Licensed Addictions Counselor in South Carolina with over 15 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, adolescent issues, and addictions. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I have experience working with veterans, active-duty military servicemen and women.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and solution focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
