Nancy Winston builds comfort and connection quickly, listening carefully and helping clients set achievable goals without rushing through sessions. She offers individual, couples, and family therapy in person or by phone, though some find the no-show fees steep and the Summerville office hard to reach by phone.

Debbie Maxwell, Counselor

Debbie Maxwell, Counselor

4.8(13)✓ Google-verified

Debbie Maxwell earns strong marks for being approachable and practical. Most reviewers praise her knowledge, techniques they can use between sessions, and her compassion when handling anxiety, grief, and trauma. One reviewer noted she can push too hard too fast with new trauma clients without first understanding what works for that individual, leading to resistance rather than progress.

Maihan Yazmine Aurah, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

4.8(47)✓ Google-verified

Patients consistently describe Maihan Aurah as a deeply engaged clinician who listens without judgment and remembers details. Her willingness to adjust medications when prior approaches failed, combined with genuine care for each person's life circumstances, sets her apart from transactional providers. Her knowledge of mood disorders and medication management is paired with referrals to therapy when helpful. Zoom appointments are available and easy to book. One patient reported difficulty with the website portal, though her clinical care itself drew praise even in that review.
