About me

I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of South Carolina. I have 4 years experience working as a counselor and I have focused on aiding individuals of various cultures, religious beliefs, age groups, LGBT and socio-economic backgrounds. I have experience in stress and anger management, management of PTSD and anxiety issues, sexuality, sexual trauma, abuse and natural and man-made traumatic experiences. I have also aided individuals that have suffered from mood disorder and major depression disorder.

My counseling approach is a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I tend to tailor our treatment and sessions towards the specified needs and goals of the client. My counseling style is very warm, client-oriented and interactive. I work in a manner that is respectful, patient, non-judgmental, sensitive and re-affirming. I tend to seek to empower the client by recognizing his/her strengths and addressing their own copings skills and self-care management. I accept that everyone has their own story and I seek to provide an environment of encouragement and healing so that each person can find their own path to success and inner peace.

When it comes to our mental and emotional health, it is often very difficult to acknowledge that we might need more help that we had previously believed. During this particular journey, work and honesty with one's self is essential but very difficult. As a counselor, I am here to support and guide you as a you seek to begin to live your best life. Let's get started.

Norma is great, she listens to me when I have things to say but also carries the conversation when I am not sure what to say. Also, she makes me think about a lot of things that I have not considered. Finally, she is very personable and I think she gets me.

She really listens to me, for what I say and what I can’t say, yet.

Norma has given me several ways to address my anxiety and personal struggles that I can immediately act on. She also collaborates with you to figure out what you really want and then gives you advice and considerations to help you through those goals. She encourages me to think differently while not putting too much pressure on myself.

She checks in and has helped so much. She’s done such a great job she said I’m at a good place were I may not need as much therapy anymore. The pts with my old marriage, work and life Norma was able to find a place to understand it, recognize it and work with it. I’m not afraid of life now. Thank you Norma, for your full of wisdom, professional and empathy!
