Female Therapists in Horry County, SC

I am a client-centered therapist who likes to work collaboratively with each person. I see it as a privilege to be allowed to help you, and I treat each client with dignity and respect. I work with most issues, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, ADHD, parenting, and adolescent problems. I have worked with almost everything and have a lot of experience working with most things. I enjoy "thinking outside of the box" and design a treatment for each specific case instead of taking a "cookie cutter" approach. I may be called or texted at 843-902-4773. I can also be emailed at hmb627@aol.com.

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker in Clinical Practice with over 15 years experience.

C.S. Lewis said, “You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” There comes a time in every life when the load you’ve been carrying gets too heavy. At times, people try to muscle through their pain, some pretend it does not exist, and some wave the white flag of surrender. However, you have the power of choice. Your pain is not in the the driver’s seat - it’s you who has had the power all along. I believe within every human being an enduring fight rests that keeps you putting your feet on the floor and driving you to function despite searing pain. Take a chance - Let me help!

Therapy is a collaborative process that considers the life experiences, patterns, relationships, and beliefs that have shaped and currently influence your ways of being in the world. As your counselor, I am committed to identifying and exploring challenges that currently bring you to therapy and the innate strengths and resources that will allow you to make the changes you desire. My approach is goal-focused, empathetic, solution-driven, and encouraging.

Would you like to feel more comfortable in your own skin? Often the world sees our outer accomplishments as impressive, but on the inside, many of us feel insecure or lonely. I will help you identify the roots of your insecurities and together we will create opportunities for higher self-regard and better choices. Would you like to learn how to put the past behind you and let go of negative thoughts and feelings? Many times we have to create coping skills and habits to survive difficulties in our younger life, but find those do not work as well in adulthood. This can lead to a persistent feeling of being stuck.

Making the decision to participate in therapy is a big step. I applaud you for making this decision because I know it is not an easy one. Maybe you are suddenly in the midst of an emotional crisis. Something happened such as a breakup, a death, job loss or many other possibilities. Now what? How to deal with this pain or grief, loss or stressful situation. By forming a relationship with a neutral outside person who has training in these matters, you can begin to get a handle of what is going on for you, identify your thoughts and feelings and develop a plan for positive change.

Life is a journey. It doesn't always happen the way we plan, does it? We are often challenged by stressors we feel overwhelmed by, such as job stress, relationships, a grim diagnosis, loss of a loved one or trauma. Any one of these things can trigger anxiety or depression. I encourage you to take the lead in your therapy, to help you overcome whatever is holding you back from living your life to the fullest.

Life is full of ups and downs, little and big crises, and at times can be confusing and overwhelming. However, within these struggles there is hope, light and room for growth. My own life journey has led me to the counseling field and helped me find my passion. I am a strong advocate of personal development and strongly believe in the importance of prioritizing mental wellness to live out our life in the most fulfilling manner. Empathy, competency and connection to others helps me build a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients to help them grow.
