Virtual & in-person • Camden, SC


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in working with children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of settings. I began my career as a substance use counselor, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding how life stressors, trauma, and mental health challenges are often interconnected. This experience led me to expand my training to better support individuals with a wide range of concerns.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, anger management, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting clients navigating grief, family challenges, and difficulties with emotional regulation and relationships. I use evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), DBT, motivational interviewing, client-centered approaches, and play-based interventions to meet clients where they are developmentally and emotionally.

I’ve spent over 25 years helping people work through anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and challenges related to military or veteran experiences. Many of the people I work with are tired of feeling stuck in distressing thoughts or emotional patterns and are ready to experience more peace, confidence, and control in their daily lives. My goal is to help you elevate your life experience — not just get through the hard parts.
