Heather Phelps, LISW-CP
About me
I am licensed in South Carolina with clinical experience as both a Clinic-Based Therapist and a Clinic Director. Additionally, I have spent the last several years developing and teaching wellness programming for children and adults that focuses on mindfulness, movement, problem-solving, communication, social connection, coping, and relaxation skills. I have developed a Mindful Parenting Program as well. I am certified in Foundations of Meditation and as a Trauma-Informed Yoga Instructor. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, parenting challenges, feelings of disconnection, trauma, and coping with life changes. My theoretical framework stems from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, and other research-based modalities. My therapeutic style is very client-centered as I believe that you are the expert on your life. We can partner together to create a plan that meets your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes tremendous courage and I am truly honored to be a part of your growth and journey towards the life that you want.

So far while I’ve been with Heather, she’s been nothing but supportive and given me tools to help me feel better and understand myself. There’s been nothing but improvement, and she’s been able to clearly understand my emotions and provide me some clarity. Not a doubt in my mind she knows what she’s doing!

Heather is the most intentional and welcoming therapist imaginable. Words cannot describe how incredible she is.

A Very Kind and Professional person. Always concerned about my wellbeing and ready to offer advice at a moment’s notice. I would recommend Ms. Phelps to anybody looking for assistance emotionally, because we all need it sometimes.
