Great to meet you! I’m a multistate-licensed Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience in mental health and trauma-informed care. I have worked with adolescents, adults, older adults, veterans, and current and former professional athletes. I know reaching out for support can feel difficult, so I strive to make therapy comfortable from the start. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, the beach, yoga, traveling, sporting events, and time with my dogs, family, and friends.

Accepts Aetna, Cigna, Horizon Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Jersey, Carelon Behavioral Health, Independence Blue Cross Pennsylvania - Virtual National Network,
My clinical background spans some of the most intense and intimate settings in social work — hospice care, hospitals, prisons, schools, and special education. I have extensive experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges, transitions, and unexpected moments. Throughout my career, I have learned that every person brings their own story, strengths, experiences, and ways of coping—and I believe those strengths are an important part of the therapeutic process. My approach is warm, compassionate, and strengths-based. I work collaboratively with clients to better understand what they are experiencing, identify what may be getting in the way, and find practical ways to move forward. I use creativity and problem-solving in my work because I don't believe therapy should be a one-size-fits-all experience. Grief is often the silent part of change in life's hardest chapters. Loss of a loved one is called bereavement, but loss of any kind is grief. Sometimes grief is woven into need for change. My approach is warm, compassionate, and strengths-based. I also work with adolescents, adults, and seniors on anxiety, depression, maternal mental health, and women's issues. I'm licensed in both New Jersey, North Carolina, and South Carolina and bring the perspective of someone who has been present with people in their most vulnerable moments — with compassion, not clinical distance.

I specialize in treating PTSD, childhood sexual abuse, anxiety, dissociative disorders, and addiction issues. Abuse and trauma can create symptoms like anxiety, depression, substance abuse, loneliness, troubled relationships, and insomnia. I believe that trauma blocks love and connection, and healing our wounds gives us access to the life that is inherent in all of us. Trauma and addiction can cause you to disconnect from your true self, lose connection to truth, avoid vulnerability, and block communion with others. This causes your nervous system to become dysregulated, and creates issues in all areas of your life.

Hi! I am D'Arion, I’m a therapist and the founder of Sincerely, your brain., LLC. My approach is rooted in warmth, authenticity, and creating a safe space where clients can truly be themselves.
I specialize in working with children through play therapy, supporting them in expressing emotions, building coping skills, and navigating life’s challenges in developmentally appropriate ways. In addition, I have a deep passion for supporting young women and college students as they transition into adulthood—navigating identity, independence, and all of the changes that come with this stage of life.
Right now, I’m also pursuing my doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision, which keeps me closely connected to both current research and the training of future counselors.
My specific areas of focus include:
- Anxiety and stress management
- Life transitions (student transitions, adulthood, career shifts)
- Women’s mental health
- Supporting Black women, Black teens, and communities of color with culturally responsive care
At the heart of my work is the belief that therapy should feel collaborative, empowering, and tailored to each person’s story. Whether we’re building play-based strategies for a child, or talking through the complex realities of being a Black woman navigating today’s world, I’m here to listen, support, and grow alongside you.

My journey began as a deeply personal quest for healing, shaped by significant challenges such as abandonment, neglect, and trauma. Overcoming hardships like poverty, familial substance abuse, and toxic relationships led me to a lifelong struggle with anxiety and feelings of isolation. In my search for relief, I explored countless self-help resources, pursued degrees in psychology, and experimented with therapeutic techniques, yet nothing seemed to offer lasting change.
Everything shifted for me about three years ago when I experienced a transformative moment that inspired the creation of the Blue Lotus Approach. This method has not only helped me heal but has also profoundly impacted my clients, guiding them toward self-awareness and resilience.

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.

- My approach to therapy is interactive and collaborative, focused on your self discovery and growth. I see our work as a partnership where your voice, values, and goals matter. Together, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy and clarify the changes you hope to see in your life, relationships, and overall sense of well being.
- I prefer to join in with my clients rather than sit back and simply observe. We will actively work together to identify patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that enhance your quality of life. I will offer gentle guidance, ask thoughtful questions, and invite your feedback so our sessions feel useful and relevant to you.
- I believe the therapy relationship is designed to support the change you are seeking. Our work will help you move toward those desired shifts at a pace that feels right, while honoring what is most important to you. If you are ready to explore your next steps in a collaborative, supportive space, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
