meet your trauma therapist in greenville, sc
you’re not broken —
your body has just been trying to protect you.
if you’re here, something inside you is tired of holding everything together on your own.
maybe you’ve spent years being the strong one, the calm one, the one who adapts — even when your inner world feels messy, overwhelming, or completely shut down.
you might notice things like:
emotions that feel too big, too sudden, or too confusing
going numb until something small sends you into overload
a nervous system that never seems to settle
exhaustion from always being “on alert”
trouble knowing what you feel, what you need, or how to say it
old survival patterns that keep repeating in relationships
and if you’ve loved someone struggling with addiction, you. may carry a different kind of heaviness — the fear, guilt, hypervigilance, and emotional burnout that come from trying to help someone you care about while slowly losing yourself in the process.
none of this means you’re failing.
it means you’ve been surviving the only way you knew how.
and now, you’re ready for something more than survival.
this is where I come in.
I’m Faith, a trauma therapist who helps adults understand their emotions, unwind old survival patterns, and feel more grounded in their everyday lives.
I also support people who love someone with addiction — helping them untangle their own pain, boundaries, and emotional exhaustion in a space that is just for them.
My approach is warm and conversational, rooted in the belief that you don’t need to be “fixed.”
You need someone who can help you understand what your mind and body have been trying to say all along.
We’ll go at your pace — not the pace of your trauma, your fear, or anyone else’s expectations.
I use EMDR, nervous system education, parts work, attachment-focused therapy, and body-based approaches… but the work is always centered on one thing: what feels safe and possible for you.
what healing often looks like before it feels like healing
healing isn’t about fixing yourself or learning to tolerate more pain. it’s about:
understanding the messages behind your emotions
learning how your nervous system adapted to past experiences
releasing shame about your reactions
recognizing your needs without apologizing for them
building internal safety one small step at a time
most people come to therapy not because they “can’t handle life”, but because they’re tired of handling it alone.
they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or numb — and they can’t quite explain why.
you deserve a space where everything you feel makes sense.
who I support
I work with adults who are:
healing from trauma (loud, quiet, or hard to name)
overwhelmed by their emotions or disconnected from them
tired of living in survival mode
feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them
supporting or recovering from loving someone with addiction
longing to feel steady, grounded, and more like themselves
If any of this feels familiar, please know: there is nothing wrong with you. your system has only been trying to protect you.
a little about me as a human
outside of therapy, i’m a cozy, grounded human. i’m a mom who loves ASMR that feels like a lullaby for the nervous system, crocheting soft things while a comfort show plays in the background, and reading books in big, joyful bursts.
I also love spending time in the mountains and in nature — even a short walk in the woods or a quiet twilight evening can make me feel grounded and recharged. my pace in life is “slow cup of something warm” whenever possible.
i’m a little witchy in the gentle, grounded way — I pull oracle cards for clarity, pay attention to moon cycles, and collect pretty rocks simply because they make me feel connected, calm, and a little more rooted. I love small rituals, intentional spaces, and the tiny moments that feel like quiet magic.
two cats share my home and take their supervisory roles very seriously. especially when yarn, laptops, or anything cozy is involved.
and because it matters:
i’m a trauma survivor too. not in a heavy, “let me trauma-dump on you” way — more in a “I get it, i’ve been through real things too, and i’m not talking to you from an emotional ivory tower” way. I understand what it’s like to rebuild trust in yourself, to soften old survival patterns, and to heal at your own pace. I bring that lived experience into my work, gently and intentionally.
mostly, i’m someone who values softness, humor, nature, family, and creating spaces where people can finally exhale.

taking the first step can feel intimidating, expecially when you’re used to carrying so much alone.
but you don’t have to keep doing it by yourself.
if something in you is ready — even a small whisper — i’m here.
