This eclectic approach has been effective in treating individuals with depression, anxiety, life transitions, LGBTQ situations, trauma, grief, self-harm behaviors, and family conflicts.
My professional counseling work in the behavioral and mental health field has been a learning and practice journey. After I completed my A.A. in 2008 in Criminal Justice, I continued to complete my B.S. in 2010 and my M.S. in 2011 in Psychology from the University of Phoenix. During that process, I provided services for a variety of populations. Feeling that I wanted more training, I earned another M.S. in Mental Health Counseling in 2017 from Capella University while also making the President’s List. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina and a registered out-of-state telehealth provider for Florida.

All of us have bad days, days when we don't feel in control of our emotions or regret our actions. Oftentimes, we struggle to seek therapy because we're fearful of being judged or don't know what the process may entail. I'm a straight forward yet laid back therapist that strives to make a space where you can work on the problems you're facing. I primarily work on trauma, parenting, stressors, and transitions with adult clients. I am trained in numerous modalities including some cutting edge options like Reconsolidation of Traumatic Memories (RTM). If you're seeking a straight forward provider who might cuss, give me a call.

My specialty training includes working with occupational trauma, medical trauma, and pregnancy and infant loss.
Typically my clients reach out to me because of feelings of sadness, worry, and disconnection in important relationships. My clients are often people who describe themselves as being “do-ers”, goal oriented people who have difficulty slowing down to understand their internal world and why they do what they do. Many of my clients are medical professionals, first responders, and veterans who have worked hard to train themselves to manage their emotional reactions because of the need to focus and perform in their work setting.

Our trauma can leave us with feelings of shame, resentment, and guilt. When we don't take the time for our own recovery and healing, we can find ourselves becoming stressed and overwhelmed. We become unrecognizable to ourselves and disconnected from our own needs. Our physical health is impacted. We experience spiraling thoughts and an inability to relax. Our anger and sadness are easily triggered. We sabotage our important relationships. We lack trust and fear intimacy. We find ourselves feeling undeserving of the goodness life has to offer.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists

When should I seek treatment for trauma?

Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.

How long does trauma therapy take?

Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.

What happens if trauma is left untreated?

Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.

Can PTSD come back after treatment?

It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
