William Lane

Therapist

Virtual • South Carolina


Welcome!

As a clinical social worker, I know mental health care is a critical part of building a fulfilling life. It can feel really vulnerable taking the first step towards this work but I firmly believe asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Throughout my career I have worked with people navigating challenging stressors from a traumatic event to adjusting to a new job. I continue to focus on adults working through these experiences and difficulties managing symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Amanda Mullen

Amanda Mullen

Therapist

Virtual • Charleston, SC


Hello! I'm Amanda Mullen, a Licensed Therapist, and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-I), licensed in South Carolina and Illinois.

As a veteran and former military spouse, I'm especially passionate about supporting veterans, active-duty service members, first responders, and their families. While every person's experience is unique, I understand many of the challenges these communities face through both professional training and lived experience.

One philosophy that guides my work is simple: I don't preach—I teach. My role isn't to tell you how to live your life but to help you better understand yourself, build practical coping skills, and gain the confidence to navigate life's challenges long after therapy ends. I genuinely believe in the techniques I use because I've seen their ability to create lasting change.

I also believe healing extends beyond the therapy office. Spending time in nature, slowing down, and reconnecting with yourself can be powerful tools for growth and resilience, and I often encourage clients to incorporate these practices into their daily lives.

My greatest strength as a therapist is creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are. Whether you're healing from trauma, managing anxiety or depression, coping with work stress, navigating life transitions, or simply feeling overwhelmed by everyday life—even potty training a new puppy—you'll find a compassionate, supportive, and judgment-free environment. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered as we work together toward meaningful, lasting change.

I am a professional therapist and former Army Chaplain with 15+ years military experience. I am compassionate, open, honest, and supportive of your goals for therapy. I am particularly oriented towards military, veteran and first responder communities. I operate from a worldview where I see hope in even in the darkest situations. I am eager to come alongside my clients to help them find their own hope and healing. Personally, I have emerged from a dysfunctional family or origin and recognize the power of therapy as I have used it myself over the years.
