Are you experiencing increased levels of sadness, anxiety, or fear?
Do you find yourself in a situation that you feel is beyond your control?
Have these concerns become present recently or how long have they been around?
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor from South Carolina with experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I provide personal counseling as well as couples counseling. I have worked with clients across a wide range of concerns including addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and struggles while parenting. I also have experience working with individuals with career challenges and ADHD.
Although I have experience and training working with addictions, I have not been specifically trained to work with Sexual or Pornography Addictions. If this is a concern, I encourage you to look to a counselor more qualified in these areas.
My counseling style is warm, empathetic as well as interactive. I have found it works best to discuss the current concern and what attempts have already made toward resolving it. From there we brainstorm approaches to address the situation. Facts surrounding current and past trends often shed unexpected light on a current situation. We will remain focused on what things help you to achieve your goals in the future. I often use Cognitive Behavioral and Solution Focused approaches to assist individuals; although, my approach will shift to most accurately address the concerns you share. We will address plans and your progress toward your goals in each session.
My main goal is to join you where you are and work with you to establish solutions.
