Therapists in Pickens County, SC

As a relationship focused therapist, my primary goal is promoting the healthy social, emotional, and relational health of both adults and young children. Endorsed as an Infant Family Specialist, I have experience with supporting the healthy social/emotional development of children prenatally through age 5. As an infant and early childhood mental health(IECMH) professional, I have an understanding of family dynamics and relationship building at an individual & family level. As a marriage counselor, I share tools to help marriages thrive. With both populations, I use a strength-based, culturally sensitive and trauma informed approach.

Choosing a counselor can be a scary decision. It may help to know how I can assist you with your life issues. I specialize in grief therpy, family therapy, adolescent issues, and families with children with chronic illness. I also work with many general topics, including life coaching, trauma, and adjustment problems. I direct therapy from a Psychodynamic approach, taking into consideration your whole life story, not just the present situation. I view family issues from a Family Systems construct, seeing the family as an action story, each person playing a part.

Through Upstate Carolina Counseling Associates and Talley Therapeutic Counseling and Consulting I am committed to assisting you and your family members toward your goals resulting in the changes you want to make. My specialization allows me to work with children and adolescents in their struggles with behavioral and developmental issues. I have experience working with ADHD, Autism spectrum disorders, mood, anxiety and other issues. Individual, partner, and family issues are areas that I work with patients to resolve problematic issues to improve relationships within the patient's world.

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker in the state of South Carolina. I completed a Master of Social Work Degree from the University of Georgia in 1979 and was licensed in 1989. I have both administrative and clinical experience in the mental health field. I have been in private practice since 1988, providing counseling services to patients of all ages. For the last ten years I am now focusing on adults and seniors. I focus on those who are trying to resolve issues related to depression, anxiety, grief, abuse, self awareness and acceptance, sexual orientation, and parenting.

Life presents an array of joys and challenges, of which, both can be stressful. We all face problems that can be very difficult to manage at times. During these times, we may be emotionally and/or mentally unable to handle our issues alone or with the casual advice of family and friends. If you are feeling stuck or continuing a spiral of negativity in your life, don't wait any longer; get help. There Is Hope Counseling, LLC is here to help you and/or your family to be emotionally healthy.

Hi, my name is Sarah Russell- I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, a Certified Trauma Professional and have extensive experience in Chronic Illness Counseling. Working with a therapist gives you the tools and techniques to navigate everyday life, support you in making tough decisions, and provide you with positive coping techniques. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 says, "Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help" (NLT).

As a Licensed Professional Counselor and art therapist I create a safe, welcoming environment that will enable you to create positive change in your life, family and community. Working together we will identify avenues to engage in a value driven life. At times feelings of anxiety and depression act as barriers to our goals and values. Through a variety of techniques, such as mindfulness, ACT (acceptance & commitment therapy) and art therapy these barriers can be eliminated.

I specialize in helping adults develop the skills needed to cope with panic, social anxiety, obsessions and compulsions, trauma, depression, and ADHD. I use cognitive behavioral types of interventions, and encourage clients to explore meditative processes in learning to be more responsive and less reactive to stress.

We all need assistance at different times in our lives to navigate through challenging opportunities. As a therapist I am an advocate for healing, growth and a more authentic life. I work with adults who are dealing with loss, anxiety, depression, anger management, identity issues, trauma and those wanting a deeper more fulfilling life. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a powerful, research-based therapy technique that is very successful in helping people who suffer from trauma, anxiety, disturbing memories, post-traumatic stress and similar emotional problems. I use EMDR and other modalities to work with adults.

Do you ever feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? You don't have to deal with it alone. Let me help. You may just need someone to listen, you may need tools, and we can figure that out together! So, I would just say to those of you who are struggling, why wait one more day? Call me today!

Sometimes, it's overwhelming trying to 'keep up' or 'fix' things on your own. Maybe you don't know exactly what you need, but you know you want to feel better. There may be things from your past that you have tried to move past, but they just keep creeping up again. I strive to come alongside individuals and families of all ages to help them overcome challenges, find meaning and joy in life, experience renewed strength, find true hope, and become mentally and emotionally healthy individuals. My core methods are evidence based and I keep a wholistic perspective- recognizing people as physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual beings.

In my tenure as a mental health professional I have served diverse populations in multiple settings to include: school-based, residential, community mental health and higher-education environments.

Tiger counseling is all about helping people find the courage to change. We are not about making you feel judged or more ashamed. In the process of analyzing your mind, we often encounter discomfort, which is a signal to keep going, never to give up on ourselves. Good therapeutic work is often messy in my experience, usually accompanied by tears and laughter (often in the same session, but no guarantees). I especially encourage you to reach out if you have tried therapy before and found it less than helpful. I assure you my approach is unique, my style has been described as unorthodox. I love that and I love the people I serve!

We all have difficult times in our lives, and our reactions and thoughts can lead to or exacerbate anxiety, depression, and other unhealthy disorders. I work with teens and up, and I have extensive experience working with college students to help them find balance, motivation, and overcome their fears of "adulting." I use CBT, REBT and Reality Therapy. I believe it's not so much about negative experiences we have as it is about our ideas about these experiences. I teach how to reframe, set boundaries, and change how clients perceive situations to help reduce or remove negative emotions so they can live full and happy lives.
