I help clients process trauma & recover from substance disorders. I work with survivors of domestic violence, coercive control, childhood abuse, sexual abuse & those suffering from anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, SI, grief, co-dependence & ADD. EMDR is available for clients who find they can't “shake-off” the past, as it lives in the present. EMDR allows my clients to move through their trauma and put it where belongs, in the past. Trauma is not your fault but healing is your responsibility.

I have been a therapist for 13 years. My training is in Expressive Arts Therapy, Somatic Work and Systems Therapies. I have worked in a variety of settings from outdoor education to residential and IOP. Most of my background has been in supporting individuals or families with children with complex developmental needs and neurodiversity. I love working with folks of all ages and backgrounds and am an ally.

Personally, I love crafting, cooking, paddle boarding and traveling to National Parks with my husband and two small children.

Thanks for taking the time to get to know me, and I look forward to knowing more about you!

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 North Charleston

Searching for therapists in North Charleston starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want to work on. Many people look for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, stress, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look at the concerns they list, the populations they work with, and the therapy approaches they use, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care. A therapist’s profile can help you understand their style before you book.

In a smaller city like North Charleston, local office options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in South Carolina. Some people prefer meeting in person near Park Circle, Northwoods, Noisette, or the greater Charleston area, while others choose virtual sessions for more scheduling flexibility. To narrow your search, check whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios can also show how a therapist structures sessions and communicates about care.

Therapy in North Charleston can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can verify your benefits and view your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists in North Charleston, review their profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

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