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.
If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.
I'm Desiree Bishop, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from South University and over seven years of specialized experience. My background in correctional and community mental health settings gave me deep respect for human resilience and taught me to meet clients where they are — without judgment. I serve adolescents, adults, and seniors across South Carolina, specializing in anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and trauma. I use CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, MBCT, and SFBT to help clients build practical tools, clarify their goals, and move toward lasting transformation.
I'm Sam — I work with teens and adults navigating some of life's harder chapters. I've had the chance to work with people carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, relationship stress, and the kind of slow-burn exhaustion that builds when life isn't matching the life you imagined. What matters most to me is that you feel like yourself in the room (or on the screen) — not performing okayness, not bracing for judgment. I'm newer to the field, which means my training is current and evidence-based, and I bring genuine enthusiasm to this work rather than going through the motions. I offer a sliding scale for those who need it. Sessions are available virtually across South Carolina.
Maybe you've been carrying something for a while, and it's starting to feel heavier than you can manage on your own. It might be your drinking, your relationship with food, or something from your past that still shows up in your everyday life. I work with adults facing substance use, disordered eating, and trauma, along with the anxiety, depression, and grief that often come with them. If part of you wants things to change and part of you isn't sure, that's a very common place to start. You don't need to have it all sorted out before reaching out. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 4 years of experience and a degree from Liberty University.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with adolescents and adults. I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and sleep problems. My goal is to make mental health care feel comfortable, straightforward, and personalized. I want you to feel heard and involved in every decision about your care.
As a working parent and spouse, I can relate to how stressed and overwhelming dealing with daily life can be. I’ve spent over 15 years in the counseling field helping individuals, families, and couples navigate everything from daily stress to mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma related disorders. I’m practical and realistic in my approach and love to walk through life with the clients I meet.
Hey, I'm Kwanza. I graduated in 2020 from Johnson C Smith University with my Master's in social work. I have 4 years of experience working with children, adults, and families to overcome trauma.
I believe that my clients are the experts of their lives.
When holding space for clients, I provide a space where they can unpack their feelings, express their emotions, and develop skills to help them live a healthier life.
Welcome, and thank you for taking this courageous step toward your well-being. Seeking support is often the first step toward reclaiming your story.
My name is Angela, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of clinical experience supporting children, teens, and adults.
Drawing on more than ten years of practice across both outpatient and inpatient settings, I partner with clients to weather life's most significant hurdles, whether you are managing anxiety, navigating a major life change, working through family dynamics, or facing an acute crisis.
Therapy isn't about fixing who you are; it’s about discovering who you can become. My approach is rooted in compassion and evidence-based care, tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. By blending these strategies with collaborative, supportive guidance, we will work together to help you reshape unhelpful patterns, navigate transitions with confidence, and step fully into your potential.
You don't have to navigate it all alone, so let's take the next step toward living your very best life together.
You may look like you're holding everything together. But inside, you're exhausted.
Your mind won't slow down. You're replaying conversations, worrying about your child, trying to keep up with work and family, or wondering why things that used to feel manageable suddenly feel so difficult.
Maybe your child or teenager is struggling with anxiety, ADHD, big emotions, school, friendships, or changes at home—and you're not sure what else to try.
Or maybe you're the one everyone depends on, and you've become so focused on taking care of everyone else that you've stopped feeling like yourself.
You don't have to wait until things get worse to get support.
I'm Cynthia High-Gutierrez, LCSW, a bilingual English/Spanish therapist with more than 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.
I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD/neurodiversity, stress, trauma, relationship and family challenges, women's issues, and major life transitions.
My background in public schools, school-based mental health, hospitals, and outpatient therapy gives me a unique perspective—especially when emotional health, family life, relationships, work, and school begin affecting one another.
For more than twenty years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and couples during some of the most difficult and meaningful seasons of their lives. I believe that sometimes it can be difficult to see beyond the darkness in front of us. My role is to listen without judgement while helping you find your way toward the light again.
Hello, thank you for making your mental health a priority! I look forward to working with you on your journey to healing, self-preservation and empowerment. Together we can!
