Sex Therapists in South Carolina

 My practice name (The Door’s Open Therapy) reflects my approach to counseling: welcoming, open and judgment free in supporting individuals to overcome the barriers that prevent them from living fully and authentically. I specialize in the LGBTQIA+ community, but work with most mental health concerns. 

As your therapist, I empathically listen while doing my best to answer any questions that may arise in therapy. This approach creates a forum where the client feels comfortable to share their struggles and helps them alleviate barriers and fosters an authentic therapeutic connection. I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor LCMHCS in NC and LPC in SC and Board Certified National Certified Counselor and have also completed a two-year professional addiction counselor-training program with several years clinical experience working with addictions. I'm also certified by the AACC to treat sexual addictions.         I treat all types of psychological issues, specializing in work with Individuals with Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Panic Disorder and Grief/Loss, Life Transitions, Couples and Family Therapy. I also possess years of experience working with addictions (i.e., sex and relationship addictions, alcohol, drugs, food, etc.).

The essence of healing first starts with acknowledging that there is something that needs to be worked on. I commend you for taking the necessary steps to start on this journey. The thought of counseling can be intimidating but there is much to be said about a person who seeks out healing and growth. You have the power to change your life’s narrative. I am here to support you. I am unbiased, non-judgmental, and genuine in how I approach therapy with my clients. I am accepting and realize that everyone has a life story and I am here to navigate that with you in the best way possible.

I am currently a student for my Masters of Social Work. I went into my master program after receiving a Bachelors of Science in Psychology. I have always had a passion to work with people of all ages since I was a child. At the age of 17 years old I started my college journey towards achieving my goal. I am still striving to master that journey till this day. It is a passion to help others. I believe if we can help one person at a time find their peace, then we can continue one after another until one day we can all find peace and happiness. Happiness is key in life. We all struggle, but in that struggle we can come out on top. In my down time, I enjoy spending time with my son. My son and I loves sports, art, music, anything to do with the water, gaming, amusement parks, and much more.
