Hi, I’m Aimee Koon.

I’ve been working with clients in Charleston, SC for years now in a myriad of ways beyond just through counseling. I’ve been a Therapist, Professor, and a Yoga Instructor. I’ve worked with young adults to seniors, struggling with anxiety, interpersonal difficulties, and traumas. Through my years of working with others I’ve come to realize that there is no one answer to solve all problems. That’s why I’ve found it very important to tailor each session to your specific needs. I find great meaning and purpose in my work with my clients. I am passionate about creating an atmosphere that allows clients to share their stories, so that they may feel empowered and find a sense of peace. Our work together will be collaborative, and I will advocate and ensure a safe environment on your healing journey.
