About me

As a licensed therapist in South Carolina with two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal transformation.

I bring a compassionate, culturally-informed approach to therapy, particularly focused on supporting Black individuals seeking understanding and healing. My work emphasizes self-love, meaningful communication, overcoming isolation, and rediscovering life purpose. I understand the nuanced emotional journeys that shape our experiences and am committed to creating a supportive, affirming therapeutic space.

My therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based practices with deep empathy, helping clients work through social anxiety, shame, guilt, and personal growth. I believe in the power of forgiveness—both for oneself and others—as a pathway to emotional wellness. Together, we'll explore your unique strengths and develop strategies that honor your individual journey.

Miss Sheila has been very helpful listening to my problems and giving me good techniques to practice at home and in the workplace when I feel a panic attack coming on. Due to her help I have managed to prevent these attacks and am able to carry on with my duties at work and at home. She has also been a great listener and extremely supportive of me which has been very helpful during my time of healing from a hard trama.

Sheila is wonderful! She’s compassionate, empathetic, and insightful. She’s provided me with so many helpful tools for working through anxiety and I’ve seen such a noticeable difference in my mood and attitude since working with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Sheila made me comfortable immediately. She listens to me attentively at each session and responds with kindness and suggestions and guidance that are practical. She readily seeks resources to help me and my family succeed. If something comes up in between sessions she is available by text. This is my first experience with counselling and so far I am pleased with how I am being cared for.
