No matter how you are feeling, there is hope.

Depression, anxiety and relationship struggles are common life experiences for many of us. Often these mood disorders are exacerbated by post traumatic stress disorder or a sense of generalized anxiety that makes it difficult to take action.  There is overwhelming evidence that counseling can alleviate these symptoms, and more than 90% of people say they would prefer to talk about their problems than take medicine.  But I know that not every approach works for every person.  Therefore, no matter whether you need couples counseling, individual or family therapy, I can provide you with a safe, comfortable and effective experience.  

As an experienced psychotherapist who draws from a carefully built "toolkit" of proven techniques and skills, I will personalize a plan for your situation. My assessments are thorough and my recommendations are clear; geared toward tackling your most persistent symptoms. Throughout the process, I will give you an experience of consistency, safety and comfort.

Compassionate, insightful and supportive, I have helped more than 1,000 clients get back on track in my 15 years in practice. In the therapy room, I am highly attentive to your story, listening carefully to glean who you are and what you want.  You will leave each session feeling more deeply known and having a renewed sense of hope, better able to understand yourself and where you are getting stuck. There is always in interplay between your background and temperament, and I will lead to you through a process where we explore both simultaneously. 

Please call at 843-270-8024 or email me at Brooke@CharlestonCounseling.org to ask questions or to set up a ½ hour complimentary consultation.  At that meeting, you can determine if I feel like a good fit for you.
