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 focus is on utilization of CBT, DBT, Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing and Adlerian Therapy.
Welcome to wanting to grow and change! One of the best ways to improve all your relationships, and reduce anxiety and depression is gaining negotiation and interpersonal skills to become comfortable asking for what you want and saying "no" to what you don't want. Even when you're uncomfortable or afraid to do so. Saying "no" to what we don't want can be one of the most profitable things we do for ourselves. Particularly so for persons repeatedly disappointed with their lack of progress, distance between themselves and their potential, want of others change and/or coming from a family where addiction of some sort was present.

I tend to gravitate toward cognitive behavioral, solution focused, and person centered approaches to my therapy work with others.
Therapy can be very beneficial for individuals willing to have the courage to be vulnerable and open to change. While most people tend to seek therapy after the fact, when things have gone wrong, I also encourage therapy as a means of maintaining wellness. By being proactive, versus reactive, you may find that you'll experience greater happiness and less stress. If you've done your research then you know there are many options for help, which can make it hard to choose; I standby the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship as key to making this work and encourage you not to give up if you don't feel connected at first.

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.

I also believe our culture plays a significant role shaping our identity and the relationship with the context we live in. Beginning with this understanding, I utilize aspects of different therapeutic approaches to help clients create meaningful and positive changes to live a fuller life.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists
How does solution-focused therapy work?
The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.
Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?
Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.
How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?
Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.
Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
