How We Start

Free Phone Consultation

We offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation for you to determine if our counseling process might fit your needs. This time also allows our counselor to gather a basic understanding of what support you are seeking.

Evaluation and Assessment

Therapy will start with an evaluation during the first session. During the evaluation, several decisions will be made: Our counselor will determine if she can provide the services needed to treat your presenting problem(s); you will decide if you are comfortable entering into a therapeutic relationship with her; and you will collaboratively discuss your goals for therapy and how to best achieve them. Therapy requires your commitment of time and energy, so it is your right to be careful about the therapist you select. If you decide not to move forward in treatment together, our counselor can provide you with references for other local counselors. You may choose to discontinue therapy at any time.

Exclusively offering Telehealth Services

To best meet our clients where they are and extend access to individuals across South Carolina, all counseling services are conducted virtually via our HIPAA-compliant online platform. For your telehealth sessions, you will need a device that has video and internet connections such as a smartphone, computer or tablet. We recommend you find a private, quiet space where you will not be interrupted and where you can speak without being overheard. Telehealth services do not include the use of social media, texting or email.
