As a Licensed Professional Counselor, it is an honor and privilege to walk alongside others. Through my counseling, I purpose to empower individuals to chose the path that leads to healing, wholeness, hope and renewal. I believe growth and healing are established in an atmosphere of acceptance, validation, mutual respect and psychological safety. Healing and wholeness is a journey requiring courage, intentionality and a willingness to embrace change. Connection and compassion are vital in a counseling experience. When we treat ourselves with kindness and understanding, we will be able to connect with others in a similar way. We will look at your life holistically: emotional, spiritual, physical, mental and relational. I offer a free 30-minute phone consultation to discover if we are a good match.

As you prepare to address problem areas in your life, finding the right person to work with to help and support you as you move forward toward your goals, is the first step. My therapy practice focuses primarily on children, families and young adults. I believe that better communication and understanding can be key in building better relationships. Typical sessions involve the basics of support, and building on the existing strengths of a person as well as developing better techniques in managing difficult emotional problems. Psychoeducation, which involves helping to understand the mental health symptoms that are being presented and learning how to manage them, as well as skills to build deficits with anger control, social interactions and stress relief, are also taught. Working together on ways to decrease difficult symptoms, such as clients providing better self care skills, building strong coping skills and having improved perspectives is essential to a healthier well being. My role as your therapist is that through the supportive and close therapeutic relationship, you will gain insight and motivation to work toward change. I am currently licensed in NC, GA and am a Certified Telehealth Practitioner in Florida. I am only able to see clients virtually in FL and NC.

Thank you for considering Sahas Counseling for your mental health needs and I look forward to working with you. I am currently offering in person and telehealth services to residents in NC, and telehealth only for SC residents. Everything you need to heal is already within you, and my work with you will help build motivation, awareness, confidence, and understanding that nurtures these strengths that exist, but are difficult to see when external and internal challenges are faced in life. Not everyone is the same and not one particular treatment model will be the best fit. Therefore, I will meet you where you are at on this journey towards healing, and provide quality of care that will be person centered and tailored to your specific needs. I have a BA in Psychology, Masters in Social Work, and have a 200-HR RYT certification. I have been working in the mental health field in both inpatient and outpatient settings over the past 16 years. I have participated in mental health and trauma sensitive yoga trainings to provide more than just talk therapy during sessions. I mostly have experience working with adults, older teens, Veterans, families, and couples. If you are a LCSW-A looking for clinical supervision, I can also help by providing the supervision hours necessary to be fully licensed and become the clinician you want to be. I know there is an end goal when entering therapy, but the journey to that goal is just as important. We will work together to make that path you desire to be on.

Have you been struggling with anxiety, overachieving, low self-esteem and relationship issues, but found traditional talk therapy hasn't provided the relief you are looking for? I am passionate about holding a non-conventional healing space for highly sensitive, people pleasers. Most clients I work with appreciate the creative, holistic, pagan-friendly and somatic focused container that I offer. During our sessions together we will gain a deeper understanding of your struggles through inner child work and processing how symptoms uniquely show up in your body. With more self-understanding we can build a greater mind-body connection and grow your innate intuition. Through these steps I hope to empower you to create the life you want and love yourself, deeply.

Maybe now is the right time to take off the mask, to start being exactly who you have long dreamt of being, and to unwind the faulty narrative that others created. Being ourselves is a full time job, and while there isn't much financial compensation for authenticity, there sure is more peace than most of us have previously known. While I enjoy the ease of Telehealth (my main modality), I also love getting outside with my clients. Hiking sessions are frequent, and like myself, my clients have discovered the healing power of nature. Let's take an integrative approach, start with the base of the tree, and work our way up. Our roots are often far deeper than we suspect, and it is what fed them that has brought us to this moment; a reckoning, finding ourselves outside of ourselves. For many, PTSD is the ground floor, the basement; let's climb out of there together. Meeting clients where they are at, exploring healthy coping mechanisms to replace maladaptive life lessons, working through the triggers, facing the monsters together, and learning how to live a fuller life; that's what I want to teach you. I specialize in the treatment of ASD, ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, and depression, and am excited to help you find your way.
