Therapist

Virtual • South Carolina


I served 30 years in the United States Army — including combat deployments — before becoming a licensed therapist. That wasn't a career pivot. It was a calling. I know what it feels like to carry things you can't explain to people who weren't there. I also know that those same people are often the ones you love most.I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified TeleMental Health Provider, serving individuals, couples, and groups across South Carolina — in person in Saint Matthews and online statewide. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, depression, and anxiety, with a particular focus on veterans, military families, and adults navigating the long aftermath of difficult childhoods.I'm trained in Childhood Emotional Neglect (CEN) — a pattern where emotional needs go unmet in childhood and quietly shape everything from relationships to self-worth to how you handle stress decades later. Many of my clients didn't grow up in crisis homes, but still find themselves struggling to connect, feel, or be fully present. That's often CEN. And it's treatable.I accept most major insurance plan. Sliding scale fees are available, and I facilitate tele-health sessions for insured clients across South Carolina.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 28 mi away • Anderson, SC


Hello, I’m Ashley Nelson. I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and therapist dedicated to helping individuals move from surviving to truly thriving. With a background in psychiatric nursing, emergency medicine, and specialized training as a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE), I bring over a decade of diverse healthcare experience, blending clinical expertise with a deep understanding of human resilience in the face of crisis. My practice focuses on supporting adults, children, and families through life’s challenges — including anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and the unique stressors faced by military members, first responders, nurses, and other helping professionals.

I have a deep passion for working with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and complex trauma, providing a safe, compassionate space where healing feels possible. My approach blends evidence-based psychiatric care with practical, real-life strategies, empowering clients to reclaim their sense of control, rebuild confidence, and create lives that feel meaningful again.

With additional licenses in Louisiana, Utah, Arizona, Tennessee, and Florida, I can see patients via telehealth from across the country.
