Greetings and Salutations!

​

I’m Jericha Peterson, LISW-CP, LCSW, licensed in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, and founder of GHW Therapy. I created this space where healing is compassionate, culturally aware, and practical. Over the years, I’ve seen how much we carry is layered—family stories, trauma we never asked for, and survival patterns we’ve learned to normalize. My work is trauma-informed and psychodynamic, grounded in curiosity, respect, and collaboration. Together, we’ll make sense of your patterns, build safer ways to cope, and move toward the life you want—while honoring everything you’ve survived.

​

As a BIPOC clinician and military Veteran, I know what it’s like to come from a community where therapy isn't always accessible, accepted, or encouraged. I’ve also sat on the other side of the chair—as a client—and I know how vulnerable, transformative, and sacred this work can be.
