- LISW-CP
As a licensed clinical social worker in South Carolina, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop self-compassion, improve communication skills, and find meaningful pathways through life's challenges. I have extensive experience supporting people struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and significant life transitions.
My therapeutic practice focuses on empowering individuals to build resilience, enhance self-esteem, and develop robust coping strategies. Whether you're experiencing panic attacks, processing a difficult separation, managing caregiver stress, or seeking greater personal clarity, I provide compassionate, targeted support tailored to your unique journey.
I believe in creating a collaborative, non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences, uncover inner strengths, and cultivate profound personal growth. Together, we'll work to transform obstacles into opportunities for healing and self-discovery.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
