Body Positivity Therapists in Greenville, SC

Have you and your partner lost your spark? In the beginning, you felt seen and heard. Now, you find yourselves in a pattern of negativity, blocked communication, and disconnection. You wonder…Will my partner and I ever reconnect emotionally and/or physically? You want to feel closeness again but fear and doubt weigh heavily on your heart and mind. Couples therapy is a safe space to strengthen your communication, embrace vulnerability together, and rediscover deep connection no matter the season (dating, premarital, marital, second marriage) or constellation (traditional, open, LGTBQ, secular, religious) of your relationship.

Accepting new clients and offering Brainspotting - a body-brain based trauma therapy. In this space, I hope you will feel understood by someone who is an HSP (highly sensitive person) & has been through various adversities and come out on the other side. I strive to help my clients flourish and navigate through their individual life challenges. I have expertise in the areas of highly sensitive persons, anxiety, depression, relational and developmental trauma, addiction, codependence and LGBTQ+.

I enjoy helping my clients reconnect with their values so that they can navigate life changes and challenges while also reclaiming hope and empowerment. Some of the subjects I work with include self-esteem, depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, trauma, recovery after leaving an abusive relationship, religious deconstruction, after-abortion care, and no-contact adult child-parent relationships.

I love my job. I look forward to working with each person who comes into my office. I begin our work by getting to know you, your story, your world; the things you want to change, improve or heal from help steer the journey. Exploring areas for growth and identifying strengths while building new skills is an ongoing process that I encourage. My goal is always to provide a safe space where you feel valued and heard so that you will be willing to step out of your comfort zone with me because this is where growth and healing can occur.

Finding a counselor can be scary. Finding a counselor with whom you can allow yourself to speak openly, assist you with your life dilemmas, and whom can reach you where you are standing, whether on the top or bottom of the mountain, can be even scarier. Allow me to introduce myself. I am a mental health counselor associate who thrives on providing effective care to teens, young adults, and adults.

I believe it is my calling to help my clients get to a better place and live happier, more fulfilled lives. I hope to help you see your worth, understand your past and how you got to the present, and explore the possibilities for your future! I specialize in attachment theory and use a psychoanalytic approach which simply means that I will listen to your story from childhood up through adulthood to get an understanding of what has happened over your life that may be manifesting today and causing challenges for you. Then we do the work to heal the parts that maybe aren't so whole right now.

You are an overachiever in many ways but sometimes get overwhelmed by life. Figuring out where exactly you fit in the world, finding “your people”, and becoming who you are supposed to be takes love, support, and compassion from ourselves and others to allow us to be our best version. Therapy is a perfect addition to your support system and gives you support and education gained from years of experience and training to manage your emotions and relationships with others effectively. Because it's a lot harder to do that alone.

I offer weeknight and weekend appointments. I believe therapy is a safe space everyone can explore skills that are beneficial in life. I am confident I can assist you on your life journey. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, domestic violence, child abuse, child neglect, sexual abuse, personality disorders, family difficulties, and substance use. I am a CAMS-II provider for anger management counseling. If you have been court ordered to anger management, look no further.

You did everything “right.” You got the job you worked hard for and found a partner that checks (some of) your boxes. You go to yoga, read all the self-help books, and even tried to have a 5a-9a before your 9a-5p. But you have nothing to show for it. You’re exhausted, burned out, anxious, depleted, and defeated. You’re at your breaking point. This isn’t what you expected life to feel like. It’s not you. It’s society. Women have been socially conditioned for - well, forever - to live up to ridiculous, contradictory expectations. These messages are implicit, but they teach us to be small, and prioritize others before ourselves.

Kate Morris is a clinical social worker and founder of Among the Trees Counseling and Wellness.

As a trauma therapist, I work with clients to develop healthy coping strategies to promote wellness as it relates to the impact of trauma or stressful experiences from the past. I typically incorporate various techniques including art, nature, and breath-work into traditional evidence based therapies. I will start by asking you to think about what you will be doing, thinking, and feeling differently when you don't need therapy anymore. We can then collaborate to create a roadmap to meet your goals. Sometimes even thinking about the end goal can be scary; that's ok, we can figure it out together!

I have a passion for working with teens and young adults that are working through their journey of self-discovery. Whether that means you’re trying to find your place in the LGBTQ+ community or trying to figure out career plans and goals for your life. I am here to help you gain clarity and insight out of what can be very overwhelming emotions.

You don’t think therapy has worked for you in the past. You feel alone and find it difficult to be yourself, even with family and friends. Maybe TikTok is the only place you feel seen. This might be because of loss or the family you grew up in, past religious experiences, the exploration of your identity or a chronic medical concern. I believe that there is a solution for everyone. It doesn’t always look the same, but I’m willing to stick with you to find out what that solution is and what works well for you.

I help victims of childhood abuse and trauma heal their lasting wounds, reduce the impact of their past on their lives, and learn skills to increase the chances of your future success. you suffer from uncontrolled anger and emotional outbursts, low self-worth, and hard time forming lasting bonds with others. You could use help with boundary setting, assertiveness, healthy communication skills and self-care activities. You're seeking help because what you've been doing isn't working.

I believe deeply in the therapeutic alliance between client and counselor for effective growth and change.

Are you struggling with coming out, exploring your gender identity, religious trauma, are autistic, have ADHD or are just looking for someone that "gets" you. Really "gets" you or your child. LGBTQ, Transgender and gender expansive clients are my specialty and I have been working with this community for over a decade. As a queer person myself, I understand the struggle of coming out or finding your own place in the world. I enjoy working with people from 6th graders to adults who want to have the courage to be who they are. It is okay to need help and I know you are the authority on your own gender identity.

Anxiety is a normal part of life but too much anxiety can make us choose unhelpful coping mechanisms that prevent us from being able to function in other areas of our life. We often feel that if anxiety would just go away, we'd feel better about our day to day lives but where does that leave us when another anxiety provoking situation or event happens? Getting control of anxiety is difficult work but it can alleviate so many of the hurdles we experience in life. As a certified hypnotherapist and licensed professional counselor, we can work together to help you use healthier coping mechanisms to be the person you want to be.

Are you feeling anxious or depressed? Are you working on your gender, personal or professional identity? Are you looking for support and direction to manage your life. Do you have a history or trauma that is contributing to your emotional turmoil.
