Stress Therapists in South Carolina

Hi, I’m LaTranette Long, LMHC-QS, LPC. I’m passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where you can explore challenges, build resilience, and move toward lasting growth. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, blending evidence-based practices like CBT, ACT, and interpersonal psychotherapy with a focus on your unique strengths. Whether you’re navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, or deeper emotional wounds, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy and guidance.

Life’s challenges—anxiety, depression, stress, and difficult relationships—can leave you feeling stuck. While these struggles can feel overwhelming, meaningful change is possible. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor at Nourish Within, working with teens, college students, young professionals, and adults. I specialize in eating disorders, body image concerns, trauma, and mood and anxiety challenges. My passion for this work comes from both professional training and lived experience, including my own journey with an eating disorder and depression, which allows me to approach therapy with compassion and understanding. My approach is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based, integrating CBT, ACT, DBT, ERP, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). ART uses guided eye movements to support trauma relief, helping the brain process distressing experiences—many clients noticing improvement in as few as one session. I also provide psychoeducation and support for families. I have experience across residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient levels of care, giving me insight into how mental health affects both daily functioning and overall quality of life. If you’re feeling stuck or ready for change, I’m here to help. Together, we can work toward clarity, confidence, and a life aligned with your values.

Hi! Welcome! I truly believe that our work together is designed to help you breathe easier, find balance, and move forward with a sense of grounded calm. Here, you’ll feel seen, supported, and empowered to nurture your inner world in ways that create lasting change. Your story matters, and your healing deserves a gentle, safe place to unfold. Let’s grow with intention—one step, one step at a time.

UPDATE: not currently accepting insurance, out of network only, but lets check your out-0f-network benefits and see whats up So, you're considering therapy? I get it, things are crazy and it feels like we are living in a really bad late-night movie, complete with sad and pathetic villains. I don't have any magic over here, but I do have a place where we can hopefully get you to a place that looks more like where you want to be. I have an eclectic approach, which is a fancy way of saying that I don't rely on any one way of getting to where you want to be. But my starting point is always from a place of your strengths, the things you are already doing well; you are not your symptoms. I trend toward elements from Acceptance and Commitment, Narrative, Positive Psychology, Existentialism, Brief Solution Focused, Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered, Behavioral Activation, and Mindfulness. I am progressive in my politics, a non-believer, and I welcome cursing as a means of expression. I believe that humor can get us through a lot of things. I mention this only because I have often had difficulty finding my own therapists that didn't wince when I said fuck or want to steer me in a spiritual direction. I am LGBTQ+ and BIPOC affirming and welcome folks from all backgrounds and ethnicities.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate in the state of South Carolina. I received my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Troy University-Augusta. I use a person-centered approach where I focus on you and allow you to take the lead so that you can set goals and achieve healthier solutions to the different situations that you deal with in your life. I also utilizes Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), which focuses on your present and future goals, and not just your past experiences, as well as some Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT) which helps you to examine and change negative self-talk and thought patterns.

 My practice name (The Door’s Open Therapy) reflects my approach to counseling: welcoming, open and judgment free in supporting individuals to overcome the barriers that prevent them from living fully and authentically. I specialize in the LGBTQIA+ community, but work with most mental health concerns. 

I firmly believe that when we share our burdens, they are more bearable. Within that collaborative and interactive therapeutic relationship, you will be successful in understanding your reactions to life to live a more empowered and meaningful life.

My name is Amy Read and I am an Adult & Geriatric Acute Care Nurse Practitioner. I have specialized my interests in health & wellness after years of struggling with my own symptoms ... symptoms of pain, brain fog, IBS, difficulty with focus, no ability to concentration, a very forgetful memory, and so many more. Luckily, I was cleared of anything life threating. Because of my personal challenges, I found functional medicine. I found a way to "cure" myself and reclaim my life. It was hard. It took a lot of time. It took work. It took family support. Now I am able to live again and I have many roles and titles, the best of which is being a mother to 6 beautiful children. I love the sun and the beach, if I have a day off that's where you'll find me! The water is mesmerizing and the sun enlightens my soul! I am now a functional medicine practitioner nurse practitioner and bring over 25 years of experience into my practice. Functional medicine has saved my life and become my passion for helping others. My own triumphs and trials with depression, anxiety, ADHD, food sensitivities and fibromyalgia allow me to have a deep understanding of what my clients are going through and what they need to have in order to achieve the life of their dreams. Through my programs, clients who are committed and ready for change, are able to obtain optimal health and wellness.​
