Helping Couples Reconnect, Heal, and Thrive Together
Has the relationship you’ve built with your partner started to feel like the place where you feel the most hurt, disconnected, or alone? Are you feeling stuck in the same circular arguments despite your efforts to improve things? If you’re feeling defeated, unsure how to move forward, or simply hoping to create a healthier, more connected relationship, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Westercamp Counseling in Charleston, SC is committed to helping couples reconnect, heal, and grow together.
Common Signs Your Relationship Could Benefit From Therapy
One or both partners are struggling with trust
Passion and intimacy have faded
You’re stuck in cycles of conflict and miscommunication
You experience difficulty repairing after conflicts
You love each other, but don’t know where the relationship is heading
The highs are high, but the lows are beyond draining
You feel disconnected, more like roommates or strangers
You’re considering separation, but want clarity first
Busy lives are keeping you from reconnecting
You both have different parenting styles
You want to deepen your connection before you commit to marriage
These are all signs you may benefit from working with a couples therapist. Westercamp Counseling believes every couple deserves the opportunity to feel seen and understood. Kindra will help you stop walking on eggshells with one another by fostering open, honest conversations that ideally move you from conflict to connection.
My romantic relationship is A Source of Hurt Versus Joy
Have you been feeling distant from your partner, almost like you’re a ghost walking through your own home, invisible to them? Sometimes the relationship between romantic partners starts to feel more like roommates versus lovers. And oftentimes that ‘roommate’ isn’t even someone you’re very fond of anymore, which causes individuals in that partnership to feel hurt, lonely, and/or abandoned.

There is a path to a more secure bond
Many couples come into therapy complaining about having the same argument over and over. They feel stuck, ignored, criticized, and/or helpless. Perhaps you’ve already gone to couples therapy to learn communication skills or have done some self-help work on your own, but that’s left you both feeling no more safe and secure in your relationship than when you sought out help. Perhaps you’re feeling defeated, overwhelmed, or hopeless, not really sure what will unite the two of you again. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) can be and often is the catalyst to lasting change in romantic relationships. EFT helps uncover the deeper emotions and attachment needs beneath conflicts; some of these include fears of rejection, abandonment, inadequacy, or not being important.
The Problem Isn’t Your Relationship
In EFT, the distress/destructive ‘cycle’ is framed as the problem rather than a partner in that dyad. This can reduce blame, while also increasing empathy. Rather than asking “who’s the problem,” EFT asks:
How do both partners unintentionally contribute to the disconnection?
How does one partner’s withdrawal trigger the other’s pursuit?
What cycle are the two of you stuck in?
Kindra can offer a platform for you to reconnect and feel emotionally safe once again
EFT helps create emotional safety, and when each partner feels safe, communication naturally improves. Kindra will help each partner feel better understood and able to express oneself in a vulnerable manner. For many couples, a shift in their relationship dynamic occurs when they realize that beneath the anger, criticism, defensiveness, or withdrawal is usually a longing to feel loved, valued, and emotionally connected. EFT helps partners access and respond to those deeper needs, which can positively transform the relationship between them.

Couples Therapist in Charleston, SC
Virtual Therapy Available throughout South Carolina
Hi, I’m Kindra. I help couples strengthen their relationship and create lasting change. I find meaning and purpose in my work as a therapist, and I strive to guide couples toward greater understanding, emotional closeness, and healthier communication.
I have advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Sue Johnson’s treatment approach for couples. I offer treatment to couples in various stages of relationship: premarital, transition to parenthood, separation, and recovery after an affair or other breach of trust. If you want a safe space to explore your relationship structure without fear of judgment, I provide LGBTQ affirming therapy for couples. I have significant experience working with LGBTQ couples, and strive to provide a respectful, inclusive space for healing and growth.
In addition to my work with couples, I also have expertise in treating individuals who struggle with grief/loss, anxiety, trauma, and adjusting to motherhood. Therapy is a journey, and I would feel privileged if you would allow me the opportunity to embark on that journey with you.

Do you accept insurance?
I do not accept insurance, but I will be more than happy to offer you an itemized bill that you can use to file for yourself, as you may be able to receive reimbursement for our sessions. I recommend calling your insurance company to inquire about out of network coverage. Here is a short list of pertinent questions to ask when calling:
- Out of Pocket Cost; “What is my out of pocket responsibility?”
- Reimbursement Rate; “What is my reimbursement rate?”
- Forms and Receipts; “Do I need to submit any forms and receipts to receive reimbursement?”
- Submitting Forms; “How do I submit the forms?”
- Reimbursement Deadline; “Is there a deadline for my reimbursement?”
- Prior Authorization; “Do I need a prior authorization to receive reimbursement?”
- Additional Notes; “Is there anything else I need to do/know?”
How long will I be in therapy?
The duration of therapy varies considerably from person to person, so unfortunately there is not a definitive answer to this question. There will be discussions over the course of therapy about your progress, as well as whether or not you are continuing to benefit. Decisions regarding termination will optimally be made by both therapist and client.
