Hi! I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker in the state of South Carolina. I am also a certified Health Coach and Life Coach. I have six years of experience as a practicing therapist working in private and public agencies, as well as, hospitals. I have a great deal of experience working with those who are coping with depression, stress and anxiety, grief and loss, and parenting issues. Relationship problems, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, sleeping disorders, anger management, career difficulties, and coping with addiction are also specialties of mine. I am a mother of four children, two of which were adopted, and the wife of a career serviceman. I personally know the unique challenges of military life and have received extensive training in this area. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, going to the beach, and visiting new places. I love animals and have two dogs and three cats! My counseling style is warm, genuine and collaborative. I believe in treating others in the same manner in which I would like to be treated. I meet clients where they are in life and work from that place. I feel honored when someone shares their personal struggles with me and in turn treat them with the utmost respect. I work very hard to be open-minded and non-judgmental. My approach combines evidence -based cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and family systems therapies. We will work together to create a treatment plan that meets your individual needs and goals. It is very difficult to take the first step toward feeling better and I applaud you for doing so. When you are ready to take the next step, I would love for us to work together. It would be a privilege to take this personal journey with you. I have day and evening times available. I am available by live chat, phone, and video. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Feeling isolated, sad, anxious, confused? Or are you struggling with a difficult personal or work relationship? Sometimes life is just overwhelming and that has never been more true than with the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic. Please know that you really aren’t alone in these struggles and that you aren’t “crazy” either. My name is “Pam” Manning and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in SC. Whether you are struggling with short term dilemmas related to your current circumstances or desire to delve deeply into your psyche to better understand yourself and develop an increased sense of purpose, I would be honored to support your journey. Forty-three years ago, while studying psychology at Wofford College, I began working with children and families impacted by violence in Upstate SC. I went on to serve as child protection worker and in permanency planning and adoptions. Over the years I continued working with children, adolescents and their parents in a variety of settings… foster care, residential treatment facilities, psychiatric hospitals, alternative schools and at a shelter for folks impacted by domestic violence and sexual assault. As my interest in helping people heal from traumas grew, I returned to college, earning a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling in 2008 from Webster University in order to hone my skills and better serve my clients. What I have learned over the years is that the human spirit is incredibly resilient. We are capable of great things in our lives if we can learn to cope with the circumstances that inevitably confront us. Philosophy and Approach: The overriding philosophy I utilize in my work is that of Existentialism. This model purports that many of the challenges of human existence are universally applicable to all peoples. Thus, problems all people face, such as loss, freedom, responsibility and the meaning of life are viewed in terms of natural stages in normal human development rather than in terms of maladjustment or mental illness. My overriding philosophy of existentialism is enhanced by the Biopsychosocial Model that underscores the individual’s unique life circumstances such as ethnicity, sex, gender identity, biological or physical challenges and socioeconomic strata. I utilize a Client Centered approach which incorporates an eclectic toolbox of techniques that have a common theme… they have all been thoroughly researched and are considered as “Best Practice” techniques. These include but are not limited to, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Family Therapy, Solutions Focused Therapy and Play Therapy. I love the work I do, it is often challenging but never boring and I find that really getting to know a person is a gift… for me but also for my clients as they learn what they are actually capable of. I approach my work with a deep sense of commitment. The level of anguish that many people struggle with can be crippling and I have found that often, with support, newly mastered tools and a caring guide, people can heal from unimaginable trauma, achieve balance and even joy! I will honor your journey but will not back away from challenging you when your choices are ineffective or self-sabotaging. I look forward to joining you as you embark on the adventure of your life … the adventure of creating the best, most productive, joyful life you can!

Hi, my name is Kevin Phillips. I became a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina in 2013 because I wanted to help people improve their mental health and achieve happiness. I have worked with clients with a wide range of challenges including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical, emotional and sexual trauma and abuse. I am also an accomplished crime victim counselor and have worked with sheriff and police departments in criminal domestic violence situations. I have also worked with victim advocates in a team approach with victims of other types of crimes such as armed robbery, sexual assault and sex trafficking. I have worked extensively with the legal systems in helping teenagers and adults who are facing legal problems because of their mental health challenges and the resulting behaviors. I have several thousand hours of experience assisting those with addiction problems. For those wanting counseling based on a Biblical world view, I am accomplished at providing biblically based mental health counseling. I am also effective at counseling pastors and other spiritual workers who face burnout and/or have failed in their ministries. I feel very comfortable helping those with end of life issues, bipolar issues and challenges, anger management challenges, and family conflict problems. I am confident that I can help those who are facing separation and/or divorce situations. I am adept at helping people with relaxation techniques and with peace and harmony restoration. I can assist you if you need help with exploring and creating goals and hopefulness in your life. I can help in communication improvement, in positive relationship development and in managing stress. I can help you achieve motivation and improve your impulse control issues. I feel very confident that I can help you improve your self-esteem and your feelings of worth and value. I utilize cognitive behavior therapy, humanistic/existential/Rogerian treatment orientations, mindfulness techniques, motivational interviewing and solution focused brief therapy. I like to spend more time on discovering solutions and what we can do together as a team to actually improve your life rather than spending too much time on finding out what the problem is. Understanding the source or sources of our problems is beneficial and indeed informs our treatment plan but the real work is in the "what are we going to do about it?" I offer encouragement, an upbeat positive personality and a can-do spirit who will come along side of you to help you get better. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
