Bertha Myers, LPC

Bertha Myers is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and major life changes. She also supports those facing relationship and family challenges, parenting strain, burnout and compassion fatigue. Her tone is calm and practical, and she focuses on small changes that make daily life easier.

In sessions she listens first and tailors work to each person's needs. She uses clear tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused strategies to tackle unhelpful thoughts and build useful habits. Mindfulness practices and narrative techniques are included when they fit a person's goals.

Bertha brings eight years of clinical experience in South Carolina to her work. She describes her approach as collaborative and trauma-aware, inviting clients to set the pace and priorities. Her background includes helping people cope with career stress, depression, bipolar concerns, substance and alcohol issues, and challenges related to attachment and caregiving.

Clients can expect practical steps between sessions, such as short exercises to practice pacing, communication, or emotion regulation. She also supports people exploring identity, self-esteem, and recovery from past abuse or domestic violence. The focus is on building skills that transfer into everyday routines.

Bertha works in English and asks new clients to complete a brief intake questionnaire before scheduling. She aims to help people make steady progress through straightforward conversation, targeted strategies, and ongoing collaboration.

How Bertha’s approaches translate to online sessions

Bertha draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises and homework. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, empathy, and helping clients find their own solutions through supportive conversation.

She also integrates Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus. These techniques can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with cravings or mood swings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions start with priorities and adapt over time so work stays relevant and manageable.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice skills in the settings where problems occur, making the strategies more practical and directly applicable.
