About

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) located in South Carolina. I have been in the helping profession since 2007 when I completed my graduate degree. During that time I have gained experience working in many different settings with individuals across the lifespan. I’ve always taken great pleasure in building strong relationships with everyone that has allowed me to accompany them on their journey to improve in their emotional well-being. I believe the relationship between a client and therapist is the most important part of the process. That’s why I meet each and every client where they are at and we work at a pace that is most comfortable for them. I do not believe there is a “one size fits all” way of helping people b/c we are all individuals. Being open, honest and transparent has allowed me to help many people in all different age groups and that is what I will continue to do as a therapist. I’m an evidence based therapist with a strength based approach that is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
