About

Congratulations on taking the first step to feeling better!! My name is Kyra and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina. The bulk of my training is trauma (childhood to recent, domestic violence, TBI, etc.), stress and anxiety, and crisis intervention. I also have experience with parenting issues, depression, addiction, gender identity issues, relationships, and low self-esteem.

I received my Masters Degree in Counseling from Webster University in 2010 and my Bachelors Degree in Psychology from the University of South Carolina Columbia campus in 2004. My internships were spent working with survivors of sexual abuse at a local rape crisis center. Briefly, I also spent time working with individuals mandated to counseling for pre-trial intervention. My work experience varies from the public to private sector; nonprofit to for-profit. I have worked with adolescents and adults up to 87 years old. I have experience providing educational group counseling, individual counseling, family counseling, and support group counseling.

My goal is to assist you with whatever troubles have come your way, recent or long standing. I believe everyone deserves respect, sensitivity, and time to grow. I am a realist. I will meet you where you are, so to speak, and will be your biggest supporter; that is, if you are ready to make that change to improve your circumstances. I am solution-focused. Because I believe that everyone is their own, unique individual with their own, unique challenges, I pull material from various evidence based best practice therapy models.

Let's begin. Allow me the opportunity to guide you through your challenges. You've got this!
