Therapists in Surfside Beach, SC

Hi, I’m Trish. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals through depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life’s more complex emotional challenges. I’m licensed in TN, KY, and SC, and have worked across a variety of settings, including private practice, outpatient care, victim services, and higher levels of care. I know that reaching out for support isn’t always easy, and I’m really glad you’re here. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to you. I don’t believe in a “one size fits all” approach to therapy—everyone’s experiences are different, and our work together will reflect what feels most helpful and meaningful for you. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and supported without judgment. I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, and mindfulness, to help you better understand your emotions, build coping skills, and move toward meaningful change. We’ll work at your pace, focusing on your strengths while gently exploring the areas that feel more difficult. I also have extensive experience in trauma work, including PTSD, abuse, domestic violence, and complicated grief. Supporting individuals through trauma and loss has been a significant part of my work, and I’m passionate about helping people move from feeling overwhelmed or stuck toward a greater sense of stability, strength, and self. Whether you’re navigating a recent challenge or something that’s been building over time, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’ll meet you where you are and walk alongside you as we work toward healing, growth, and a more balanced life. I look forward to connecting with you.
