Hi! Welcome to my page. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC in Georgia and South Carolina) & Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC nationally); with over a decade and a half of experience in helping people to move forward. Are you stressed, depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or dissatisfied with your life? Are you experiencing a situation that you think no one will understand? Perhaps your situation is rare and you are not certain if what you are experiencing is real? Are you ready for help that is actually helpful? Is guilt or shame stopping you from getting to the life you want? Where ever you are and whatever you are going through, I am ready to help you figure out the first or next steps. Are you ready to explore options, make choices and start living a better life? Sometimes when we try to change it impacts the system around us, sometimes leading to outcomes we did not necessarily intend, but have no control over. I understand that no two people are the same and that every individual is to be respected as unique with very different feelings, actions, thoughts, experiences, and history. My holistic approach to treatment is tailored to you, an individual. Whether you only need a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to grow and find your own way, or you need help to deal with long term suffering, or someone to make the journey through some dark place, then I am waiting to go with you. I have a very open, honest, engaging style that incorporates humor, metaphor and encouragement into the therapeutic process, a process that is self-directed and empowering for you my client. If I am wrong about any of this please let me know. I utilize various theoretical approaches including: person-centered, humanistic, existential, Adlerian, brief psycho-dynamic, and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT); often framed in a skilled helper model. I have years of experience working with both disabilities (any type) and clinical mental health. I likewise specialized in technology assisted counseling, I have a proven record of counseling results including through the delivery of services via text based communication, and have utilized technology as an adjunct to face to face counseling during most of my professional career. I am waiting to begin where you are and start on any of these: Personal growth / development Anxiety / Depression Adjustment or re-adjustment Couple / parent concerns Anger management Interpersonal / social skills Disability (including psychiatric / invisible disabilities) Veterans Acute stress, trauma, post trauma (PTSD) Guilt / shame Bereavement / complex grief And more! Education: I earned my Bachelor's degrees, a BA in psychology and a BS in Chemistry from Arkansas Tech University, While working my way through school, I worked with persons with disabilities and also with persons seeking recovery from addictions. I earned my Master's degree in Counseling from the University of Arkansas in Little Rock. While pursuing my Master's I worked for the division of services for the blind, helping persons with visual impairment and blindness. I believe in a holistic approach to health and wellness. Experience: I have over a decade and a half of counseling experiences (rehabilitation and clinical mental health) including many referrals from community agencies in situations where the combination of factors was too varied for the system to address. In addition to my education and typical work experiences, I am also a combat veteran who served as a medic in Operation Iraqi Freedom, and have extensive training in helping with trauma, both mental/emotional and physical. I have a solid record of encouraging and challenging people to do the hard work needed to reach successful outcomes. I became interested in technology assisted counseling while working with persons who relied upon assistive-technology for face to face and social interaction, and yet due to the limitations of the portable technology and complexity of synchronous communication I quickly realized that asynchronous, text based communication was the only feasible solution for this person to ever benefit from counseling. Freddy L. Honeycutt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC).

I’ve worked in a wide range of settings — crisis hotlines, substance abuse, career planning, military units and federal agencies, private practice, higher education and wellness facilitation — and I bring a calm, practical, whole-person approach to every session. Although I my time on BetterHelp is limited, I bring years of clinical work, real-world experience, and mind–body wellness expertise to this space. For the last decade, I’ve also taught fitness, movement, and stress-regulation practices, which gives me a unique perspective on how the body and mind interact when we’re overwhelmed or stretched too thin. I offer short-term therapeutic consults for adults who are stable but overwhelmed, tired of “pushing through,” or struggling to keep up with their own self-care. We won’t do long-term therapy or crisis work here — instead, we’ll focus on practical insight, emotional skills, and small shifts that help you feel more steady, centered, and in control.

You’re a great fit if you are: • High-functioning but exhausted or unfocused • Struggling to maintain healthy routines • Navigating busy schedules, burnout, or life transitions • Looking for clarity, grounding, and realistic strategies • Are emotionally stable enough for collaborative, solution-oriented work I may not be the right provider if you are in acute distress, navigating trauma triggers, managing panic attacks, experiencing significant depressive episodes, or need crisis intervention or intensive therapeutic care. I do not offer long-term psychotherapy, emergency intervention, or deep therapeutic work on BetterHelp. What to Expect in Sessions Our sessions are focused, collaborative, and supportive. We’ll start with what’s showing up in your life right now, explore the emotional and physical patterns around it, and talk through practical tools to help you feel more grounded and capable moving forward.
