I am a licensed therapist in South Carolina. I help individuals discover the deep-rooted issues that have created emotional imbalances in their lives, so that they can stop allowing their past to define their future, become more confident and take control of their lives. I treat individuals affected by a variety of different issues, including depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, PTSD, sexual trauma, relationship issues, domestic violence, racism and discrimination, and geriatric/end-of-life issues. I have worked with clients of all ages and backgrounds and I am comfortable attending to the unique challenges that surface at different life stages. The goal of my therapeutic approach is to help you learn to more effectively navigate your internal and external roadblocks, so that you can have a more clearly defined pathway to achieving your own sense of happiness. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

The best therapist I have ever worked with, she has saved my life and has helped me more than I could ever repay her

Working with Kwan over the past month has been really helpful. I decided to use better help when I got out of a relationship, and she has been there for me every step of the way. She has helped me very much with the coping skills I need to get over this major heartbreak.

Kwan is a breath of fresh air. Positive, caring and relatable. This is my second attempt at using Better Help and was considering canceling because of my first therapist choice, but Kwan changed my mind and has been extremely competent and helpful in navigating my mental health challenges. I am actually really glad I did not cancel and was able to choose someone who was more applicable to my situation.
