Find a therapist in South Carolina — covered by insurance

Hello there! This is a big step and you should be proud of yourself for reaching out for support.

My name is Vanessa Hill, and as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work with a diverse range of clients who are seeking support to handle challenges such as anxiety, trauma, depression, stress, and life transitions. I have 9 years of experience providing compassionate and individualized mental health care. I work with adolescents and adults in a tele-health setting.

Hi, I'm Bri at Willow Counseling and Play Therapy! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor working in South Carolina. As a therapist, I serve children (4+), teens, and adults. I enjoy working with a wide range of clients and concerns, but I specialize in Child-Centered Play Therapy with children and frequently utilize EMDR with teens and adults to address a variety of issues, such as trauma, anxiety, and self-esteem. My approach always shifts and matches the pace of the client in front of me.

My journey began as a deeply personal quest for healing, shaped by significant challenges such as abandonment, neglect, and trauma. Overcoming hardships like poverty, familial substance abuse, and toxic relationships led me to a lifelong struggle with anxiety and feelings of isolation. In my search for relief, I explored countless self-help resources, pursued degrees in psychology, and experimented with therapeutic techniques, yet nothing seemed to offer lasting change.

Everything shifted for me about three years ago when I experienced a transformative moment that inspired the creation of the Blue Lotus Approach. This method has not only helped me heal but has also profoundly impacted my clients, guiding them toward self-awareness and resilience.

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 received my BA degree in Psychology from Columbia College and my MA degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lenoir-Rhyne University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) dedicated to supporting adult women through life’s challenges with a compassionate, empowering, and trauma-informed approach. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel safe, supported, and understood, and I strive to create that environment for every client I work with. I have experience working with women in a correctional facility and in a private practice setting. I have also worked with adolescent males in the juvenile justice system, adolescent girls, and children in a school setting.

As a therapist, my approach is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and the belief that every person has the capacity for growth and healing. I create a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel understood, supported, and valued. Together, we’ll explore what you’re carrying, build insight, and develop practical tools that fit your life. My goal is to help you feel empowered, encouraged, and equipped to move toward the version of yourself you want to become.
