Meet your therapist
Welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a decade of experience working with teens, young adults, and families. I started in the field in New Orleans and became fully licensed while working in New York City, but Charleston has been home since 2019.
I consider myself an eclectic therapist, meaning I pull from a variety of modalities. I have a long history of working with clients with trauma and I most often utilize Rogerian (person-centered) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques. I’m happy to explain these theories in more detail with you but, at the end of the day, I believe that the success of therapy is most dependent on the fit of the therapist and client.
For that reason, I believe it is more important for you to know that I describe my style as nonjudgmental, inquisitive, and honest. I approach every client with empathy but I also believe that challenging your thinking patterns is essential to growth. If you are curious about this approach, please reach out for a free consultation.
Whether or not I am the right fit for you, I commend you for seeking support and hope you continue to prioritize your mental health.
