Message from Eva: "I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker in Clinical Practice with over 18 years of experience, offering telehealth therapy for adults in South Carolina, Florida, Georgia and Indiana. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, and LGBTQIA+ affirming care. As a queer Lebanese American, I bring lived experience and cultural humility to my work, creating an inclusive space for individuals of all identities, including trans, nonbinary, queer, and polyamorous clients. I provide gender-affirming care letters without gatekeeping and use trauma-informed approaches such as DBT, EMDR, IFS, and TF-CBT. My practice is grounded in collaboration, empathy, and respect, supporting clients in resilience, identity, and healing."
