About
As a mature woman of color who has experienced childhood sexual trauma, homelessness, and domestic violence, I have an authentic understanding of how we are impacted by painful life circumstances and how building new life skills can be empowering.
I am a licensed master social worker (LMSW) with 2 years of experience providing compassionate, client-centered care. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, families, and older adults as they navigate life challenges. Many of the clients I support experience anxiety, self-doubt, shame, and codependent patterns, often influenced by difficult or narcissistic relationships, and are seeking healthier coping skills to manage life stressors.
I earned my master’s degree in social work from the University of South Carolina. My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed and integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy to help clients break unhealthy patterns, strengthen emotional resilience, and reconnect with their sense of self-worth.
I provide a safe, supportive space where experiences are honored and your voice is truly heard. For clients who value spirituality, I offer the option to incorporate Christian principles into therapy. I welcome clients of all gender identities, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds, and I am here to support you on your path toward healing and growth.

Dealing with grief and loss is a personal and unique journey, so it's important to explain that to the client as well as ensure them that there is no wrong or right way to grieve or a time limit.
One effective tool in working with grief and loss is the stages of grief, helping the clients to identify where they are, and helping them realize that grief is oftentimes not linear.
Progress in this area can be measured by the client's ability to move through and experience the stages of grief. Some say acceptance is a good measure, or finding a purpose through their loss.
Clients can be encouraged to join grief groups, journal, spend time with family and friends, and reminisce about their loved one.
Something a client may do before therapy is ask themselves what they hope to expect or need from grief counseling.
Grief and loss counseling helps people grieve difficult losses including the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship. It helps people navigate their grief process and eventually accept, understand, and move forward from their loss. Thriveworks grief therapists in Mt Pleasant, SC have specific experience, training, and skills that enable them to best support grieving individuals.
Grief and loss counseling isn’t one-size-fits-all, but it involves sharing about your loss and then working with your counselor to acknowledge and accept your new reality in its wake. Your provider at Thriveworks in Mt Pleasant, SC will design your treatment plan around your unique needs and goals for therapy, applying the counseling techniques that best support them.
If you have recently experienced an event like the death of a loved one, a breakup or divorce, the loss of a job, or another major life change, then you may want to seek grief and loss counseling. Grief can be caused by many experiences and events, so if you feel that you are having trouble moving on from a certain event or find that it is still impacting your life and functioning, grief and loss counseling can help you process it more effectively so that you can move on and once again find fulfillment and satisfaction in your life.
There are many counseling theories for treating grief, one of the most frequently used being the dual process model of grief which helps people acknowledge who or what they’ve lost through rumination while also adjusting to the new roles and identities that this loss has now placed on them. There are also many commonly used therapy approaches used in grief and loss counseling, including Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and traumatic grief therapy.
Grief & loss counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
For many, grief and loss counseling lasts for about 6 months. For others, it may last shorter or longer, depending on the severity of their loss and their grief.
Death brings about the strongest and most profound emotions we can have in our lifetime. But these feelings do not need to bring on despair or a feeling of hopelessness. When a beloved family member, friend or a pet dies, the feelings we have can be overwhelming and sometimes last a long time. The grieving process can begin before a loss, and it can endure long afterward. If you are suffering through the loss of a loved one, the professionals at Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant Counseling can help you ease the pain. Counseling can help you through this most difficult time, providing you with solace and the tools you need to help you recover from the loss you have suffered. Reach out today to get started.
When we suffer a loss, we are likely to wonder if our feelings are normal and how long they will last. A number of questions can arise. The therapists at Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant Counseling can help you navigate these difficult questions and support you through your bereavement. If you are asking yourself any of these questions, loss therapy is a good step to take.
If you would like to talk to a therapist about any of these topics or others that you’re trying to work through, call us at Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant Counseling to schedule your appointment. Our phone number is 843-606-6223.
