My Services

I am based in James Island, SC, and offer in-person therapy for adults, families, and couples in the local area. If you're outside of the James Island vicinity or prefer to meet from the comfort of your own home, I also provide convenient telehealth sessions for clients across South Carolina.

I specialize in marriage and family challenges including; ​

• Challenges in marital or pre-marital communication

• Infidelity recovery

• Parenting struggles (lack of communication, discipline & behavioral management)

  • Parent Seminar
    I also offer Emotional Regulation for Children, a 40-minute parent seminar designed to give parents practical, easy-to-understand tools for supporting their child’s emotional regulation. The content is grounded in child development and meant to be educational, not psychotherapy or clinical treatment. You can learn more and access the seminar here: https://magdazest.gumroad.com/l/fewoc

Alongside my work in couples and family therapy, I provide care for individuals facing emotional and behavioral challenges such as:

• Anxiety/stress 

• Low self esteem 

• Depression  

• Anger

• Life transitions

​

My therapeutic approach

As a therapist, I take a direct approach, offering clear and honest feedback while creating a supportive space for clients to explore their challenges. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Strategic approaches to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts, empowering them to break negative cycles and develop healthier coping strategies. My straightforward style often leads to faster progress, so therapy may not need to be as long-term as you might expect.
