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.

Life is full of challenging experiences … and people! We all need an encouraging mentor to listen and guide us toward our goals. Family and friends may mean well, but unfortunately they usually have their own agenda, criticize without understanding, and offer advice that is best for them- not you. I bet this is happening to you right now. This is just a natural way with untrained people. Let me empower you! Let’s get you on track to where you want to go. We’ll have fun and maybe share some tears along the way. Managing your stress, anxiety, and depression is our goal. You may be in a difficult or strained relationship that leaves you drained and even sucks the life out of you. No wonder you are tired! Just like the hundreds of other clients I have helped to return joy to their lives, I offer 25 years of professional experience. You can do this! Start right now and sign up for your session with me. We’ll even laugh a little! You need this and don’t want to be stuck in this place, do you? Let’s talk now! Marie Duncan, Ed.S., LMFT
