Counseling with a sense of humor! Licensed therapist since 2007.

Hi! I'm Leslie Rowell, a licensed professional counselor who enjoys working with adults of all ages. I specialize in issues around unaddressed trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, and life transitions. My style is warm, empathetic, humorous, and always person-centered.

Hi, I am Linda. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have experience providing compassionate care to individuals who are experiencing situations that disrupt or dominate their daily lives. I am trauma-trained and I utilize counseling approaches that foster hope resulting in living a more satisfied and resilient life.

Hi, I'm Carolyn. I've been working in the counseling field since the 90s — and after all this time, the one thing that hasn't changed is how I show up: I come to listen, not to lead. I work with adults, teens, seniors, and families dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, grief, anger, and everything in between. I practice via telehealth, which means if you're anywhere in South Carolina, we can work together without you having to drive anywhere or rearrange your whole schedule. I believe you already have what it takes — my job is to help you access it.

Therapy is meant to be a place where anyone can feel safe and understood. With all of the major stressors that kids are facing in this current age, it can be a game-changer for a child to have a place where they feel accepted and supported. I became a therapist not to pathologize or diagnose children, but to become another safe adult in their support system who guides them to their goals and cheers them on from the sidelines. I specialize in helping children and teens ages 3–17 navigate through emotional challenges, stressful life transitions, and difficult developmental experiences through play therapy and a warm, supportive environment.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in working with children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of settings. I began my career as a substance use counselor, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding how life stressors, trauma, and mental health challenges are often interconnected. This experience led me to expand my training to better support individuals with a wide range of concerns.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, anger management, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting clients navigating grief, family challenges, and difficulties with emotional regulation and relationships. I use evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), DBT, motivational interviewing, client-centered approaches, and play-based interventions to meet clients where they are developmentally and emotionally.

My approach is rooted in trust, empathy, curiosity, and genuine care. I believe that meaningful change begins in a safe, supportive relationship where you feel seen and understood. I strive to create an environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions freely, without judgment. I have had experience working with all ages- spanning from private practice, community mental health, school social work / school based therapy, and residential treatment centers. While I love working with children and adolescents, I also provide space for adults and parents.

I am a Christian Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience walking alongside youth, adults, and families through the many chapters of life. My passion is to see every person connected to my work step into the fullest version of who God created them to be. I firmly believe in the power of His Word to remind us of our purpose, His plans, and the truth of how deeply we are loved.

It is my heart’s desire that each individual I serve experiences healing from the inside out. Restoring of peace, renewing of hope, and empowering them to shine their light everywhere they go.
