My Approach to Relational Therapy

My therapy approach is trauma informed and rooted in evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT). I focus on building healthy communication, resolving conflict, and helping families work through difficult emotions to create lasting change. I am a trained in Brainspotting, a trauma recovery practice, that can assist in this process.

I offer a free phone consultation. You can ask questions about therapy and tell me your story. If I don’t feel I can help you, I will offer additional referrals to assist you in finding the help you need. We begin with an intake session of about 90 minutes. Regular sessions are 50 minutes long and can be in person or virtual. Currently I am not accepting insurance. HSA accounts are accepted and I can provide a Superbill.

My Masters degree is in Marriage and Family Therapy from Converse University. I’m specifically trained to work with couples and family systems with Gottman Level l training for couples. In session, we don’t focus on who is “right or wrong” but why you each feel how you feel, what triggers those emotions and reactions and how you can work together to communicate effectively in your relationships.

I am licensed in South Carolina as a Marriage and Family Therapy Associate. I am a Brainspotting trauma recovery practitioner with Level 1 & 2 training. Often past traumas, resolved or unresolved, can influence our reactionary behaviors. Brainspotting can assist to uncover and relieve those heightened reactions resulting in improved relationships.can help you, I wil nee
