Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in South Carolina

Come to our center to get help with your mental health as our therapy style is warm, friendly, and interactive. We believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Our approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, mindfulness, play therapy, rational-emotive therapy and EMDR, eye movement desensitation and reprocessing. EMDR can relieve these depressive symptoms and help reframe negative beliefs, resolve unprocessed trauma and adverse experiences, improve energy and mood, and create a more positive understanding of the self and others.

Life is often a series of difficult challenges and painful struggles. It can be hard to make sense of it all, let go and truly heal. Still, trauma, chronic pain/illness, mood issues, loss or other difficult problems do NOT need to define you or your life. I have a passion to help young adults, women, single moms, military families, and others who've been impacted by the tough stuff life has to offer. Using a holistic, strengths-based approach that integrates wellness practices, with trauma informed modalities I can help facilitate the healing process, and provide an opportunity for you to become the best version of yourself!

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen” Brene Brown. I believe reaching out for counseling support takes courage as it leads us out of our comfort zone. Finding a supportive counselor is an important first step in the counseling process and I base my practice on being a supportive and non-judgmental partner to help you navigate through difficult times. I wholeheartedly believe that making one or two small changes can free a person up to move toward the life they want to live. I love the work I do!

Daring greatly means the courage to be vulnerable. It means to show up and be seen. To ask for what you need. To talk about how you're feeling. To have the hard conversations-Brene Brown. Does your life feel like it is starting to spiral out of control? Are you tired of fighting alone or feeling unheard or unseen? My passion lies in helping those that are motivated to seek help but might be scared to start. Change can be very hard. I would love to explore that together. I go at the pace that is most comfortable to you. My specialties include ADHD, stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, familial conflict, parenthood and women's issues.

Mental health is steadily gaining global recognition. Fortunately, with exposure comes greater access to treatment for those with mental health concerns. Unfortunately, the flip-side to increased exposure is standardization; society is quick to turn to diagnoses and labels to simplify the complexities of human beings. Although diagnoses can be helpful, it is important to remember: you are not just not a label or a diagnosis. With Cal Hilsman at Compassionate Acceptance for Life (CAL), you will find a therapist that prizes each client as unique and encourages self exploration beyond the standard internet search.
