Teletherapy for South Carolina

I treat clients who struggled with life experiences ranging from childhood trauma, abuse, family and relationship conflict, polyamorous relationships, kink, substance and alcohol use and abuse, etc. Clients may require live video sessions or telephone sessions to which I provide Monday through Friday from 8am to as late as 8pm some nights depending on client needs. I work to help clients create and achieve goals that focus on creating and maintaining a positive future. My clients want to live healthier lives with minimal experience with anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges.

I specialize in working with individuals, families and couples struggling with the pressures & expectations of life. You may feel stuck in your current situation. You do not want to continue the way things are but you are unsure of where to go next. You want to break free of the limitations you currently feel and begin living an empowered, balanced and authentic life. Depression, fear and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we experience at some point in our lives. Counseling can be beneficial to individuals willing to work toward change.

We can’t avoid pain or erase traumatic experiences but we don’t have to suffer. We suffer when our inner distress grabs hold of our decision making. We beat ourselves up and move further away from others. Sometimes we don’t recognize who we see in the mirror. I want to help people move closer to the person they want to be and the people they care about. I will try my hardest to help clients unhook from their painful thoughts and feelings and traumatic experiences so they can be engaged in the world in more meaningful ways. I love coaching families with young kids how to help their kids make positive changes very quickly using PCIT.

In my tenure as a mental health professional I have served diverse populations in multiple settings to include: school-based, residential, community mental health and higher-education environments. Proficient in four languages (Ukrainian, Russian, French, and English), I provide culturally competent and trauma-informed clinical services to help people from all walks of life obtain access to mental health services. As a strong generalist, my therapeutic interests include a range of mental health issues and complications in individuals, couples, and families. As a trauma specialist, I hope to make the world as safer place for all.

"I'm sorry" "This is the last time" "Never again" "What's wrong with me?" Does this sound familiar? Why give up everything for this one thing, when you can give up this one thing and have everything?

Past trauma, stress, anxiety, and depression robs you of your peace of mind. It also affects your relationships with others. The struggle to make good decisions and have healthy relationships is real. You may feel lonely and as if your life is out of control. I can help you process trauma, learn strategies to get rid of intrusive thoughts, and discover better ways to solve your problems. I'd like to help you by focusing on you, to identify your emotions, triggers, and uncover unhelpful patterns in your life. Together we will work towards your personal goals to bring peace to your life, and help you to live your best life.

My ideal clients are those who suffer with career burnout and compassion fatigue (healthcare workers, law enforcement, veterans, etc), those dealing with identity issues, those who have had traumatic and abusive pasts or are in crisis now, relationship issues and addiction. I desire to use my innate capacity for authentic empathy to enter into another's pain. I listen to their story, help them understand themselves better and find balance. I can help clients to reclaim or define their real identity with the goal of finding meaning and purpose amidst suffering and struggle.

Hello! If you're struggling to find, maintain, or leave a relationship, I can help. If you're consumed by worries, always in your head and not in your life, I have a roadmap to a way out. I'm Dr. Liz, and I specialize in helping clients navigate relationships and anxiety in both individual and couples therapy. I'm fueled by a passion for providing proven therapies in a warm, approachable way. I have advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Both approaches are supported by science and research and I'm thrilled to be able to offer them to my clients.

Don’t believe everything you think. WAIT, WHAT? Our brains are problem solving machines. They work really well on solvable stuff. However, life changes and stress encourage our brains to "fill in the blanks" with narratives that may not be accurate or helpful. We sometimes tell ourselves crap that has an element of truth without examining the complete picture. Remember the first time you looked through a kaleidoscope and saw the cool, fractal image? What if you didn't know that you could turn the wheel to uncover endless images? Getting stuck in a single story is kinda like not turning the kaleidoscope wheel.

Are you experiencing challenges in your marriage? Do you find communication to be a constant struggle? Has intimacy slipped away into the background?

Together, we’ll create a roadmap to deepen your connection, build mutual trust, learn to accept accountability, awaken layers of intimacy & establish a lasting foundation of love during this transformational time in your relationship.

Are you overwhelmed with the pressure of being all the things, to all the people? Are you the strong one for everyone else, even though it feels like you're barely hanging on? Is your answer always "yes" even when your heart, body, and soul are saying "no"? Do you struggle to reconcile your faith with your mental health challenges? Do you crave a safe place that you can simply take the cape off and breathe? Does representation matter? If so, I've got you.

I believe the most important story you will ever hear that will impact your life is the one you continually tell and believe about yourself. My goal as your therapist is to help individuals, couples and families take the necessary steps needed to heal via helping them re-author their story. The work I do with people involves helping them heal through facing their hard truths. Through my experience with personal hardships and what society would see as failures, I have come to the realization that perfection is an illusion and a more realistic obtainable goal is to strive for excellence – meaning continually trying to do your best.

I am a Doctor of Clinical Psychology with additional Masters degrees in Education, and Psychology Practices. I conceptualize the Whole person as a result of extensive training. Therefore, as Psychologist and a Christian, I am invested in the psychological and spiritual lives of my clients. I have committed myself to a nonjudgmental, caring, and effective therapeutic practice. A shift in perspective, belief systems, and learning new skills can make all the difference to someone suffering. Therapy is an investment in yourself and your loved ones. Personally, walking along the healing path with my clients is my life's passion.

Worked with people who are dealing with behaviors associated with Decision-making, Parenting, Trauma, Work/Stress and Life Transitions.

Welcome to my psychotherapy practice. With over 20 years of experience, I offer children, families, and adults a safe and accepting environment to explore and gain a better understanding of the issues most affecting their lives. Rather than solely focusing on behaviors or symptoms, I work with individuals and families on gaining insight and understanding into the various underlying causes of their thoughts, feelings, and actions. It is only then that meaningful and long-lasting change is possible.

I specialize in treating pre-adolescents, adolescents, and men dealing with anxiety, OCD, ADHD, ODD, depression, low self-esteem, low self-confidence, anger struggles, emotional dysregulation, and poor peer relationships. I also work a great deal doing parental consultation to help parents build coherent parenting plans, change systemic cycles, lead behavior change, and repair parent-child relationships.

Since 1970 I have walked with many persons, couples and families who need supportive, fresh ears and eyes, a compassionate heart, wise experience and holistic perspective regarding life's challenges, transitions, burdens, growth points and life choices. I learn each one's story is unique and may offer the opportunity for new meaning and purpose. I seek to know and connect with each one I am honored and often blessed to serve at the core of who she or he is and not lose sight of that one's uniqueness midst the presenting depression, anxiety, grief, infidelity, identity clarification, trauma, worry, miscommunication and addiction.
