If you have had trouble communicating with your therapist/others or with traditional talk therapy approaches, you have come to the right place. My name is Dena Ewing and I am a board certified art therapist that specializes in trauma therapy and somatic practices to resolve emotional pain and suffering. Many people I treat have often tried different therapies in the past with limited success. My approach to resolving long standing anxiety, trauma and/or depression is by taking a "bottom up" approach, meaning we work with gently connecting to the body first to let it inform the next steps in healing.

As a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, seniors, veterans, and couples, I believe in the dignity and respect of everyone. I do not judge, and work to provide a safe environment where clients feel free to talk about their life situations. Clients have described me as easy to connect with, knowledgable, and understanding. Beginning with the first session, I work to understand you and help you achieve your goals to a more comfortable life using a Cognitive Behavioral approach.

If you suffer from OCD, uncontrollable worry, anxiety, or panic attacks, you might feel like your symptoms control you and you are powerless to stop them. Your intrusive thoughts, compulsions, or worries may be having a negative impact on your relationships at home, work, or school. Having OCD can be debilitating and is often misunderstood - even by medical doctors and therapists. There is hope! Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT) like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are effective treatments for these conditions.

I am here for those of you feeling lost, overwhelmed, defeated, or unsure how to move forward. Maybe you're feeling anxious or depressed and you've lost touch with the part of you that felt joy or purpose in life. Maybe you’ve experienced a traumatic event and need help processing this and moving forward. Or maybe you're experiencing some big life transitions and you don't feel emotionally prepared to handle them. These are all common human experiences that are worthy of confronting and working through to find peace and satisfaction.

Coming home after another long day and the anger comes out toward your significant other. Driving to work and you’re already fuming because of all the incompetent drivers on the road. White knuckling it as you wrestle with the urges to use your substance of choice – even after saying for the 10th time that you’re going to quit. That feeling of anxiety or panic you get when you’re around that feared situation. It’s not just that, you worry constantly about all the “what ifs” and waiting for the other shoe to drop. You want to actually believe you can feel calmer, end your addiction, and that the good things in life can stay good.

I have been a therapist and counselor for over 15 years. I work with people who have a DEEP desire for change in relationship to why they are coming in for counseling. I specialize in helping people work through their personal issues such as; marriage problems, depression, anxiety, ADD, ADHD, mood disorders, sexual issues, communication issues, career/life coaching, parenting coaching, dysfunctional relationships, or any other behavior problems that are interfering with a normal or higher quality of life.

You've been struggling with maintaining a balanced and happy life due to feelings of depression and/or anxiety. You may have started to self-medicate with alcohol and/or drugs to ease your stress. You are scared that if you continue to practice your negative self-talk, constant worrying, or substance abuse it will further affect your relationships, marriage, self-esteem, health, career, and happiness. You deserve to live a balanced life without the need to self-medicate and practice unhealthy coping skills that don't work! ​ What's at stake is enabling yourself to live in a state of self-doubt, disappointment, and worry.

You and I can become a team and work on the issues together. Everyone can benefit from talk therapy. We all need a listening ear when life issues come knocking on our door.

I am NOW accepting NEW clients. Perhaps you have thought about counseling, but you aren't sure how to begin. I believe that nothing is more important than creating a safe, trusting, therapeutic relationship with you - a relationship in which you move at your own pace to explore your own concerns, hopes, and dreams. I want you to experience the difference that a caring counselor can make in your life!

What comes next? ​

Welcome to Talk Therapy. Speaking with an objective therapist helps people through pain, provides insight, and encourages hope! The human condition may result in unexpected life changes, relationship issues, sadness, loneliness, fear, et.al. Sometimes, it is how one is personally "wired" that causes stress and problems. I want to provide you support and foster growth, understanding, and positive coping. My passion is working with age-groups ranging from adolescence through adulthood. My experience is working with individuals, groups, adolescents, those in treatment, and the incarcerated.

I see therapy as a courageous journey of hope and healing, and I enjoy working with individuals and couples who want a better life. As a Gottman Certified Therapist, I am passionate about working with couples, helping to resolve years of hurts and misunderstandings, deepening friendship, and improving communication. The work can be hard, but it leads to a richer, deeper emotional intimacy than either one could have dreamed of alone. As a CSAT candidate, I am passionate about working with sex addiction, sexual anorexia, and trauma. I love seeing clients heal & become the person they were always meant to be.

I am accepting online clients for virtual therapy in South Carolina and Tennessee. I work with adults (Individuals, couples, and families) across a number of life experiences and mental health issues. I also work with the LGBTQIA+ community as an "out" counselor. I approach counseling from a multicultural and social justice viewpoint and have lived and worked in many countries and US states. I draw from these experiences to understand your unique situation.

Working with a diverse client population is what keeps me going and motivated each day. I enjoy getting to know the lives of each of my clients and learning what make them tick. Each of us have so much to offer the world as well as each other and we sometimes lose sight of that. Whether you are struggling with issues around gender identity, your past traumas and their current effects, or looking to improve your family or intimate relationships, I would love to work with you as you grow and learn ways to improve your life on your terms. You are the author of your own novel and I would enjoy helping you fill the pages with positivity.

As a therapist, I deeply enjoy walking alongside individuals and couples as they pursue healing and navigate the many challenges of life. I am passionate about holistic wellness and strive to create a safe and accepting place for my clients as they seek mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health. I believe that every client is beautifully and uniquely diverse, and I value the opportunity to partner with them as they pursue healing in all areas of their lives.
