As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist with a Master of Social Work from the University of South Carolina, I specialize in guiding individuals through the complexities of addiction and mental health challenges. I’m dedicated to providing evidence-based, compassionate care that empowers clients to make meaningful changes in their lives. By fostering a supportive and nonjudgmental environment, I help clients identify their strengths, overcome obstacles, and achieve their personal goals for lasting growth and resilience.
In our first session, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy and your goals. It’s a chance for me to understand your needs in a comfortable, welcoming space, setting the stage for our work together.
One of my greatest strengths is helping clients navigate their toughest challenges while uncovering their own personal values and strengths. I empower clients to realize their resilience and potential, guiding them toward lasting growth and self-discovery.
I use ERP by incorporating EBT tools for assessment, providing psychoeducation, and collaboratively working with patients on gradual exposure to help them tolerate the discomfort associated with triggers and compulsive behavior
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients by identifying and reshaping unhelpful thought patterns that influence emotions and behaviors.
