Taking the courageous first step to seek help can certainly feel unnerving. Questions like, "Will I connect with this person? Can they truly help me? Am I prepared to confront and address the issues I've long ignored?" are completely normal. I assure you that everyone struggles with uncertainties, and seeking guidance from an objective outsider can be transformative in navigating life's hurdles. With 15 years of experience in providing therapeutic services to individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and circumstances, I am confident we can make significant strides together in overcoming your challenges. I completed my Masters in Social Work from the University of Maryland, Baltimore in 2010. Since then, I've had the privilege of working in various settings, from clinical environments to public schools, helping countless individuals navigate their challenges. My expertise lies in assisting individuals in processing and coping with trauma, and I'm trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). If you feel I am the right provider for you, I’m dedicated to working with individuals aged 10 and older on any spectrum of gender identity. I am well-versed in many therapies and interventions but generally gravitate towards Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. CBT offers insights into how thought patterns influence emotions and actions, while EMDR facilitates understanding of the origins of problems and their ongoing impact. By learning to reprocess information and reframe negative thoughts, individuals can bolster their self-esteem and develop confidence in managing life's trials. My philosophy centers on empowering clients to define their goals and supporting them throughout their journey. Conveniently located for in-person sessions in downtown Charleston, SC, I also offer virtual sessions to individuals in South Carolina and Maryland. As an out-of-network provider, I prioritize your autonomy in treatment decisions. For those opting to utilize health insurance, I can provide a superbill for reimbursement submission. Let's embark on this transformative journey together, paving the way toward growth and fulfillment.
