Therapist

Hello! I have over 25 years of experience walking alongside individuals through both challenging and transformative moments. I believe people heal best when they feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported, and I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients can safely explore their emotions, experiences, and personal growth without judgment.

I help individuals build resilience, expand their capacity to tolerate distress, and strengthen emotional regulation skills that support long-term well-being. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals. I believe meaningful change happens over time, and I work to support clients in growing at a pace that feels both safe and empowering.

If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.

For 18 years, I have worked alongside children and adults navigating some of life's hardest

moments: anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and more. I believe that when you

invest in your mental health, you gain more control over your own life, and that is something

worth working toward together. I am dually licensed in both North Carolina and South

Carolina, which means I bring a depth of clinical experience across many settings. Using a

blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy, I meet you where

you are and help you build toward where you want to be.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I believe mental health ties to many different aspects of our lives. Many people find it difficult to ask for help and I can see the difference when people make that first step. My goal is that people do not struggle alone and I am here to help. I work with adults of all ages but really enjoy working with couples and women who experience anxiety, depression, or PTSD.

I’m a licensed therapist who creates warm, grounded, and compassionate spaces for clients to explore their inner world and reconnect with their authentic self. I work with adults navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, and trauma—particularly those healing from patterns where they’ve abandoned their needs, voice, or self-worth.

My work blends modern psychotherapy with holistic tools, offering an integrative path toward healing. Whether you’re reconnecting with your intuition, working through emotional stuckness, or rebalancing after burnout or a major life shift, I meet you where you are—with care, curiosity, and respect.

I served 30 years in the United States Army — including combat deployments — before becoming a licensed therapist. That wasn't a career pivot. It was a calling. I know what it feels like to carry things you can't explain to people who weren't there. I also know that those same people are often the ones you love most.I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified TeleMental Health Provider, serving individuals, couples, and groups across South Carolina — in person in Saint Matthews and online statewide. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, depression, and anxiety, with a particular focus on veterans, military families, and adults navigating the long aftermath of difficult childhoods.I'm trained in Childhood Emotional Neglect (CEN) — a pattern where emotional needs go unmet in childhood and quietly shape everything from relationships to self-worth to how you handle stress decades later. Many of my clients didn't grow up in crisis homes, but still find themselves struggling to connect, feel, or be fully present. That's often CEN. And it's treatable.I accept most major insurance plan. Sliding scale fees are available, and I facilitate tele-health sessions for insured clients across South Carolina.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Florence

Searching for therapists in Florence starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a life transition. As you compare options, look for a Florence therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or relationship counseling.

In a smaller city like Florence, local therapist availability may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across South Carolina while still connecting you with a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. As you narrow your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointments that fit your calendar, and provides the session format you prefer. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Florence can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
