My Approach
If you are struggling with anxiety or avoidance in your relationships, find yourself unable to fully engage in your life and important relationships in the ways you want to, or feel stuck repeating relational patterns that no longer serve you, engaging in the therapy process with the right therapist for you can be a transformational experience to help you finally move forward in your healing process and reach the goals most important to you.
Even when you are able to logically deduct the action steps needed to improve your relationships, you may struggle to take action or to truly experience the positive benefits of any action taken due to deep-seated beliefs about self and others rooted back to past experiences that may be working against you in your adult relationships.
I specialize in working with individuals and couples with a history of relational trauma using EMDR and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy to help you disrupt painful relational patterns and experience deep inner healing and connection in your relationship with self and others.
About me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of South Carolina, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida, and a Nationally Certified Counselor.
I take an active approach in your journey toward transforming your relationships. After experiencing the benefits of these methods first hand in my own life I have found working with others to do the same to be my greatest passion. I believe it is a combination of my advanced trainings and my ability to fully empathize with my clients' lived experience that makes me uniquely qualified to work with the clients I align with.
