I look to help you identify your strengths and utilize them so that you can achieve your desired outcomes. My approach is to utilize multidimensional psychodynamic tools based upon your life course and inherent difficulties. In conjunction with the client, goals will be developed and guidance will be provided in order to achieve the optimal short term gains and long term objectives. Change is achieved through solution focused and task based theories to help achieve change. These tools can be particularly helpful for those coping with negative thought patterns, depression, anxiety, developmental differences, executive functioning difficulties and challenges associated with trauma and transitions. My practice has entailed work with a wide variety of individuals and focused upon the needs of each person. I have also engaged in practice with individuals with autism, those impacted by a wide range of environmental challenges as well as those having difficulty making life transitions. I have also participated in family based crisis management, helped families develop a range of techniques to improve relationships with their significant others and acted as a conduit between family members coping with trauma. I live with my wife, daughters and two dogs and have a passion for helping others. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you have your aspirations align with your actions!

Hello! My name is Alma Leigh and I am a master's level clinical social worker. I am passionate about helping others find their way to a healthy sense of well-being. I believe that no matter what you have experienced in your life (childhood sexual trauma, neglect, abuse, abandonment, mental health diagnosis, etc ) you can not only find a sense of wellness but you can experience joy and recovery. Your life has a purpose and I promise that it is not to simply suffer. Let me help you find your path to where you want to be in your life. You are worthy and deserving of experiencing joy, love and purpose! I am experienced in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy, Exposure Therapy, skill building, motivational interviewing, and just good old fashioned active listening just to name a few. I believe that I deserve to be inspired. That said, I also believe that I hold a responsibility to inspire others. It is my goal, purpose and joy to help you find your path to recovery and joy. I wasn't always a social worker. I was enlisted in the US Air Force and also worked for the TSA. I have worked in factories, fast food, higher education, sales and retail. However, the hardest job I have ever held was being a stay at home mom. Shout out to the stay at home moms and dads out there! I am mom to two great kids. I am happily divorced and enjoy all that single life has to offer. I love travel, experiencing new and unusual food, art and music! I think that the new music out today is as good as the music I listened to as a teen back in the 80s. Post Malone, The Weeknd, Khalid, Drake, I could go on! Motley Crue and Guns and Roses will always have my heart though! In the interest of full disclosure, I am unable to work with anyone who seeking therapy services as a direct result of a court order. Also, if you are actively experiencing / participating in a violent domestic partnership, If you are struggling with addiction, please seek interventions in person as your life depends on it. I am unable to provide any therapy utilizing this online forum. You also have a right to know that I am required to report any abuse of children, elderly and the disabled to the proper authorities. I look forward to getting to know you and working with you. As much as I love what I do and am passionate about psychotherapy, I am not for everyone and that is ok! If you decide that we aren't a good match, I want you to either let me know or contact BetterHelp customer service and ask for someone else. Remember this is YOUR journey. Make the decisions you need to in order to get to where you need to be. I wish you love,light and joy! Alma Leigh

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about licensed therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Harleyville area can be found below:

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Harleyville due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
  • With a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Harleyville may not take health insurance, some in the state of South Carolina may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of South Carolina you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

Is BetterHelp right for me?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Harleyville is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in SC, therapists may be booked out with clients. Through the list of profiles above and others within BetterHelp's team, you may be able to find a psychologist within 24 to 48 hours.

Should I find a Harleyville therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Harleyville licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is therapy worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Harleyville, South Carolina can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
