Hi! My name is Adele Barnes and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina. I have a Master of Arts Degree from Webster University in Counseling with a concentration in Professional Mental Health. I have 5 years of experience providing individual therapy, family therapy, and group therapy sessions to children, adolescents, and adults. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to assist individuals with anxiety, self-esteem issues, depression, grief, suicidal ideation, self-harming behaviors, dealing with life changes, and more. I believe building rapport and establishing a trusting therapeutic counseling relationship is vital. I believe in providing a safe, comfortable, and nonjudgmental environment. Sometimes on our life journey we encounter situations that may be difficult for us to handle alone and need the guidance of others. As a counselor I am here to help you handle life difficult moments and equip you with positive coping strategies to deal with these difficulties.

I have twenty years of psychotherapy and clinical social work experience. I work with individuals, couples and families. My primary areas of focus s include adjustment issues, stress, anxiety, family and interpersonal dilemmas, professional exploration, and life coaching. I am very experienced in working with people who have eating-related issues, I.e. binge eating, bulimia, anorexia, obesity and pre-operative and post-operative bariatric surgery (WLS- Weight Loss Surgery) procedures. The majority of my clients continue to work with me for “health maintence” purposes. In other words, primary issues are ameliorated and focus transitions to maintaining healthy coping skills. I have been in private practice since 2002. I have also been the lead psychological editor for column in a national surgical journal, taught several collegiate courses as part of adjunct faculty, and maintained affiliations and memberships with numerous professional organizations. My practice focuses on working through the issues at hand and to maintain healthy coping skills for self-awareness and personal growth in various contexts. I am straightforward and personable while keeping in mind boundaries. I will do my best to work with a client, however, it is ultimately up to the client to do the real work.

If you are ready for a new beginning, schedule a session today. I am flexible with sessions as well. I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, ADD, ODD, parenting concerns, adjustment issues, relationship problems, and issues problem solving. In addition to the different areas I focus on, I am flexible with sessions. My primary therapeutic approach is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This approach is useful in addressing how you think, feel, and behave. It is my belief that how we think, makes us feel, and we behave accordingly. My goal is to address your life’s struggles with strategies that allow you to be more empowered to maintain changes (i.e. healthier thinking, feeling, and behaving), reach goals, and feel less overwhelmed with all of the things that are going on in your world. We sometimes are in need of direction, validation, and make sense of what is going on in our world. As your therapist, you will not be alone in this journey.
