LGBT therapists in South Carolina

I believe the greatest relationship one could ever have is the one with themselves. Oftentimes, we tend to get lost in the expectations of our families, society, culture, relationships, religion, etc., and find ourselves unhappy with the person staring back at us. Regardless of which of these feels true, the journey to yourself can be scary, uncertain, and uncomfortable; however, not impossible. Together, with you in mind, I aim to serve as a guide to assist you with healing past hurts by helping you become more self-aware; accepting and trusting your feelings and experiences; alleviating your distress; and living an authentic life.

I have been a therapist for 11 years and hold a received my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Akron & am a licensed clinical counselor in the state of Ohio with supervisor designation.

I work with clients ages 13+ struggling with: sexual abuse, trauma, anxiety, depression, adoption, adjustment disorders, partner/spouse issues, PCOS/hormone issues, transgender concerns in youth & adults, & the LGBTQIA+ community.

I bring over 30 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and families in education and counseling settings, and I am passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges in a supportive, practical way. I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem struggles, stress, burnout, family conflict, attachment wounds, emotional overwhelm, and people-pleasing patterns.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel comfortable being honest, understood, and supported as they work toward meaningful change. I especially enjoy helping clients strengthen boundaries, build emotional resilience, break unhealthy cycles, and move toward lives that feel more balanced and authentic.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor originally from Augusta, GA. I graduated from Paine College and Mercer University, I began my career with an enriching internship at Positive Impact Health Centers. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working in addiction treatment, intensive outpatient programs, and with individuals experiencing psychotic disorders.

In 2019, I became fully licensed and continued to grow at Georgia Psychological Treatment Center, where I deepened my understanding of the human psyche and embraced a more intuitive approach to healing. This path led me to earn a Master Life Coach Certification and a Master’s in Divinity, focusing on consciousness, spirituality, energy healing, and transpersonal psychology.

Along the way, I’ve gathered meaningful experiences and powerful tools, including training in EMDR, to help support trauma healing. As a transpersonal therapist, I integrate the mind, body, and soul into my work to help you achieve your goals and come into deeper harmony with your Self.

My passion is helping you find your path and your peace. I have been a licensed clinical therapist for nearly ten years, and love what I do. I truly believe we are all just messy humans, doing the best we can every day. I look forward to meeting you!
