Khalid Greenaway
Welcome to BetterHelp! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the states of North and South Carolina. I graduated from Liberty University in 2013. My approach to counseling is very eclectic and person centered. I am experience in the utilization of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Family Therapy (FT), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), and I also assist client with implementing forms of meditation into their daily lifestyle. My aim is to empower each person I am allowed to serve, and to assist them with understanding that each person has the ability to heal, cope, and/or adapt despite life's challenges. The power to create change is within each one of us, and my job is to assist you with that process. My counseling style is non-judgmental, multi-culturally sensitive, and empathic. I take a holistic approach to counseling in that we will consider internal and external influences on your thoughts feelings and emotions. When considering our feelings and emotions there must be consideration take to the mind and body connections and how they affect one another. Our relationships and family of origin also have tremendous effects on us because we don't exist in a bubble, but within systems and relationships which must be considered. It is my goal to empower you. Working with BetterHelp is a convenient way for you to receive the help and support that you need, right from home or wherever you are with a phone, tablet, or computer. It will be important for you to understand that while there are many benefits to receiving counseling, there are risks associated with it. Talking about difficult things may make you feel worse than when you started, but if you keep up with the commitment and do the work, it will get better over time. I look forward to working with you!

My name is Cameron Williams and thank you for taking a moment to read about me. In doing so you have already taken a critical first step in the therapeutic process which is making the decision to seek out help. I have a Bachelor's of Science from Charleston Southern University and a Master's of Social Work from the University of South Carolina. I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of South Carolina with nearly 20 years of experience working with primarily adolescents and adults with various life challenges. While most of my experience is working with depression, anxiety, parent-child relationships, self-esteem, stress and anger management, I also have experience with various other life issues. I have a no nonsense approach to counseling meaning that my job is not to fix you but rather to help give you the tools to fix yourself. I believe everyone has the power to improve their situation with the right guidance and motivation. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy as well as motivational interviewing, DBT, and solution focused techniques because I don't believe there is such a thing as a cookie cutter approach to fit a cookie cutter client.

I look forward to working with you!

Ann Marie Parker
Welcome! Reaching out for support takes courage, and I'm glad you're here. I'm a independently licensed clinical social worker with experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families navigate life's challenges. Over the years I've worked with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, ADHD, life transitions, parenting challenges, foster and adoptive family issues, and the lasting effects of childhood adversity. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, heard, and respected while also learning skills you can use in everyday life. Together we'll identify what's getting in the way of the life you want and develop realistic strategies to help you move forward. I draw from several evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, mindfulness, strengths-based therapy, solution-focused therapy, and attachment-based interventions. I tailor therapy to each person because no single approach fits everyone. One of my greatest passions is helping people understand how past experiences shape present emotions, relationships, and patterns of thinking. Healing isn't about pretending the past didn't happen—it's about learning new ways to respond so the past no longer controls your future. Clients often describe me as compassionate, encouraging, and easy to talk with. I strive to create an environment where you can be honest without fear of judgment while also feeling challenged to grow. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, grieving a loss, navigating relationship difficulties, or simply wanting to better understand yourself, I would be honored to walk alongside you. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Sometimes taking the first step is the hardest part—and you've already begun.
vanessa williams
I believe healing begins in relationships where people feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I provide a warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed space where individuals and couples can explore life's challenges without judgment. I specialize in working with trauma, relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the lasting impact of difficult experiences. Whether you're navigating communication challenges, healing from betrayal or interpersonal violence, struggling with self-worth, or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or stress, I will meet you where you are while helping you move toward meaningful and lasting change. My approach is attachment-based, person-centered, and evidence-informed, integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness practices. I focus not only on reducing symptoms but also on helping clients develop emotional resilience, healthier relationship patterns, and a stronger connection to themselves and the people who matter most. I believe therapy should be both compassionate and practical. Together, we'll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build on your existing strengths, and create a path toward healing that aligns with your values and goals. Seeking therapy is a courageous first step. If you're ready to invest in your emotional well-being and create healthier relationships—with yourself and others—I would be honored to walk alongside you on that journey.
Kerry Wischusen
Hi, I'm Kerry, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in South Carolina. I'm glad you're here. A lot of people come to therapy carrying more than they realize. My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and over years of practice I've come to understand acceptance as something built through three connected skills. Presence is the ability to stay grounded in the here and now, with a workable relationship to the thoughts that try to pull you elsewhere. Ease is the practice of intentionally calming an overactivated nervous system, not by avoiding what's hard, but by learning your body's own pathways back to steadiness. Compassion is a warmth toward your own difficulty rather than a war against it. I bring two lenses to this work. I'm trained in mindfulness meditation and yoga, so I understand contemplative practice from the inside, as a lived discipline and not just a technique to hand someone. I also stay closely connected to the neuroscience of emotional regulation and behavior change, so the support I offer holds both the science and the felt experience of being human. Above all, I'm a deep listener. Before we get to tools or frameworks, I want to understand you: your patterns, your history, what "hard" actually feels like in your body and your day. Good therapy is built on that kind of attention. If you're navigating anxiety, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulty, or a persistent sense of being disconnected from yourself, I'd be glad to work alongside you.
Ashley Jackson
I grew up hearing things like, "therapy isn't for Black people" and "what happens in this house, stays in this house." First of all, both of those statements are a lie. Second, while trust and privacy matter, not at the expense of your mental health. Let's be real. Life be lifing. We all need support at different points in our lives, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking for it. You're probably showing up for everyone else. Your employer. Your children. Your partner. Your family. You're making sure everyone else is okay while quietly carrying the weight of your own experiences. But who's showing up for you? Who's holding space for you? That's where I come in. Sometimes, from the outside, it looks like you have it all together while internally you're struggling to keep your head above water. Maybe you've spent years surviving and have become so good at it that no one realizes you're hurting. Together, we'll identify the things that are weighing on you, unpack the trauma and triggers that continue to show up in your life, and learn practical ways to manage them so that you're not just surviving, but healing. What sets me apart as a clinician is my ability to combine clinical expertise, cultural awareness, and genuine human connection. I provide a compassionate, strengths-based approach that honors each client's story, identity, and lived experience. As a Black Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I understand the importance of creating spaces where clients feel seen, valued, and understood without having to explain or minimize their experiences. My goal is not only to help you navigate life's challenges, but to help you reconnect with your strengths, build resilience, and recognize your own capacity for healing and growth. You do not have to carry it all by yourself.
