A Bit About Therapy

Guiding You On the Path of Self-Healing

According to the American Psychological Association, “Licensed Counselors and Psychologists help people of all ages live happier, healthier and more productive lives.” Through the use of various psychotherapy methods and collaborative treatment measures, my patients develop life-changing habits to help them cope with any of life’s various obstacles. My therapy sessions are designed to dissect personal issues and provide patients with effective tools to help them see the glass half full instead of half empty.

Licensed/ Certified Professionals Here to Guide You

Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to get into a career path that would make a difference in people’s lives. This interest led me to study psychological science and eventually a full time job and private provider. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Supervisor and Licensed Addiction Counselor in the State of South Carolina, I am committed to the well-being of all my clients and go above and beyond to cater to their needs.

I truly care for all of my clients, and work diligently to help find them the answers they seek. Since 2003, I have worked with a variety of patients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives.

THOUGHTS

“Don’t judge me by the decisions I made, You don’t know the options I had” - Ellen Guess

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I realize that often we come across challenging times in our lives in which our experiences, circumstances, access to resources affect how we manage important life issues. Life changing transformations can happen with counseling no matter how big or small. To be able to talk with someone who is dedicated in helping others reach their maximum potential is key! Take this moment in time to begin on a new journey into self-awareness, self-acceptance and understanding that every decision made is an opportunity to creating your best life !!
