Brevard got the nickname of “The Land of Waterfalls” because of the many waterfalls in the town including Triple Falls, Sliding Rock Falls, Batson Creek Falls, Connestee Falls, and the Looking Glass Falls. The town is also famous for the white squirrel and has a White Squirrel Festival every year on Memorial Day weekend.
However, if you are suffering from any kind of mental or emotional illness, you may not feel like seeing the falls or going to the festival. There are many reasons why you may be feeling this way, including depression, anxiety, and even certain physical illnesses. Talk to one of the Brevard area counselors about what is bothering you today.

My therapeutic approach is based on the client’s needs, and I believe there is no one therapy approach that works for everyone, as we are all different and unique individuals. I believe it is important to meet clients where they are, and work collaboratively together towards established goals. I believe in being open and honest in sessions to assist clients with gaining the feedback and assistance they need in making the changes that will better their lives. I believe the client-therapist relationship is extremely important, and there must be a good sense of trust, honesty, and teamwork between therapist and client for therapy to be productive and for goals to be achieved. I greatly appreciate you taking the time to learn a little bit about me, and if you feel I am the right therapist for you, I look forward to working together!
