As a therapist I believe in coming along side another and providing the support that is needed to move forward and be comfortable with being you. I believe that everyone deserves to have a safe space to process, not be judged, and receive support. I understand how it feels to be misunderstood and to want to move forward and not know the first step.

In this world, money matters. If you don’t have a good grip on your money, or if you feel very anxious when you try to plan your financial future, that’s going to take a huge toll on your life. Your health may suffer, your relationships may suffer, and you might even make worse financial decisions and lose a lot of your money as a result. In my work as a therapist, I’ve seen how our money issues can affect our whole life, which is why I decided to become a financial therapist for people in South Carolina and North Carolina.

Life is… complicated. Even at the best of times. When intense emotional concerns – your own or your child’s – join the mix, it can feel like the walls are caving in. Whether it be an acute situation or a chronic concern, I work with my clients to strengthen their connection to their own values and rediscover their inherent power to move themselves closer to living their most genuine and fulfilling life. I aid them in unraveling the tangle that our internal experiences can become so they can see a clearer picture.
