If I could recommend Steve to everyone, I totally would. He is incredible. I grew up going to therapy and quit because I felt like no one was actually listening. I decided to give it another go and was so happy that I landed with Steve. He makes me feel like he is always listening to me. Even though I have only been working with him for a short time, it feels like I could tell him my whole life and not be worried about what he thinks. Even in the darkest of stories, he always has the perfect responses and he always makes things seem less terrifying to face. I am so lucky to have him as a therapist. He is truly one of a kind. Anyone would be lucky to have such a wonderful person to help them through their struggles.
More about Steven
- 19 years' experience

- LISW-CP
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Master Addictions Counselor (MAC) licensed in South Carolina with over 18 years of experience working as a VA Social Worker, Life Coach and a Mental Health Therapist. My work has been with Individuals from all walks of life and with a wide range of concerns - including depression, anxiety, addiction issues, OCD and ADHD and career challenges.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach to therapy is holistic in nature and combines CBT (cognitive-behavioral therapy), ACT, psychodynamic, Motivational Interviewing and Mindfulness Therapies. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps toward change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you on your journey toward self-discovery and your better life.
I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
