As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, I love helping people overcome past traumas- be it physical, emotional, or sexual abuse to the pain of not fitting in with your family or friend groups. I strongly believe in the inherent resiliency and transformative potential of ALL people. I take a behavioral approach which helps people to recognize the impact of their past on their present ways of seeing, feeling, and experiencing the world while teaching new tools and skills for building a life of meaning and purpose. I am also warm, funny, open, and look forward to meeting with you to see if I can help you in your transformative journey.
I offer evidence-based psychotherapies, which are psychological treatments that have been proven to help people overcome challenges. I focus on the whole person- with a strong belief in the transformative power of learning to name, accept, and listen to emotions. I am currently working with individuals living in South Carolina only.
Therapy transforms lives when you put in the work and a trained professional partners with you to identify what you need to change and how to accomplish those goals. Please reach out to me if you are interested in working with me towards your therapy goals. I offer evening and weekend hours through my virtual practice.

In the first session or two we can figure out together what type of therapy fits your unique needs. I often use Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills and Cognitive Behavior Therapy- we can see how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and then work together to learn practical tools for improving your feelings and relationships.
