Hi, I’m Hilary! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LISW-CP) in South Carolina and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oregon. I have experience working with adolescents and adults with a wide range of concerns including trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety, substance use, self-esteem, stress, ADHD, motivation, health and wellness, anger, parenting, and coping with challenges and adjustments. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals on an outpatient and inpatient basis within community agencies, private hospitals, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and my own private practice. Ultimately, providing therapy through this virtual platform has become my favorite modality for therapy as it breaks down barriers, opens up doors and allows you to communicate with me when and how you want. My passion is to help you move forward by taking the steps needed to move in the direction you want to. To do that, I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. I am also certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure and Focused Health Coaching. The approach we take together will depend on your specific situation. As everyone is different, I tailor these approaches to your specific needs, goals, and situations. Throughout our journey, I will remain warm, gentle, empathetic, and firm while pushing you to reach your goals through honesty, support and effective techniques. I work with each individual to develop and practice cognitive and behavioral coping skills to manage stress and stressful situations throughout life. I believe in finding the strengths within each of you, and using these strengths to adapt, cope, and grow. I often reinforce that if you continue to do what you’ve always done, you’ll continue to get what you’ve always gotten. So, what does all of this mean if you choose to begin therapy? It simply means we will work together to figure out how to change. We will find some thoughts and behaviors that may be keeping you “stuck,” and find more helpful thoughts and behaviors that lead to feeling better emotionally and reaching your goals. I also believe the basis of any life-changing journey is a strong therapeutic relationship, and I enjoy spending time getting to know each of you to foster that support. When you are ready, I look forward meeting you, getting to know you, and supporting and empowering you to reach your goals and live the life you want to live.

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker, living in South Carolina, with 6 years of experience in the field. I have spent that time providing grief counseling and support to a diverse population of caregivers and family members in a hospice setting. During this time I have seen an array of clients with difficulties related to mental health and depression, burnout, life changes, aging parents, financial crisis, end of life planning and LGBTQIA+ issues. Some of my favorite tools include CBT, Narrative Therapy and Grief Counseling. Life is full of many different changes, losses and adjustments, and my goal is to assist others in processing those as they move forward on their own journey. Availability: M-F (9 AM-5 PM, EST) I check my messages often between these hours, and am committed to responding within 24 hours, during the work week. Please note that some evening time slots are available for Live Sessions, as I am aware that not everyone lives in my time zone. **Disclaimer** I am a mandated reporter, and am required to report any instance where a client has stated that they are a harm to themselves or others to the proper authorities. Better Help is not a platform for emergency use. If you feel that you are being physically threatened, are actively in an emergency situation, or are currently experiencing thoughts/intention to commit suicide, please call 911.

I have had the opportunity to practice with clients with a wide variety of issues. In recent years my primary focus has been with clients with deteriorative neurodegenerative disorders( ALS and MS) life altering burns,bipolar disorders and chronic mental health issues. In addition I have treated helping professionals suffering from compassion fatigue. I have a MSW from Florida State University and a Ph.D from The University of Maryland in Clinical Social work. I am a member of the Academy of Clinical SocialWork( ACSW) and a Board Certified Diplomat in Social Work(BCD). My primary treatment modalities are Cognitive Behavioral, Behavioral Health Intervention guided by Evidence Based findings. I employ a process that provides alternatives to life approaches and strategies that no longer serve the individual by offering new ways to address life issues within the safety of a helping relationship.The approach includes problem solving and adopting new cognitive approaches to guide thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Evidence-Based generated findings add specific interventions that are productive in helping with issue resolution.

I am pretty flexible and can likely meet the time request you have as long as it is outside of my full-time employment hours. ** BetterHelp gives therapists the option of 30 minute sessions or 45 minute sessions. My sessions are all scheduled for 45 minutes unless otherwise requested. This means that the session will begin wrapping up no later than the 43 minute mark and conclude no later than the 45 minute mark. If you feel like you need more time - please reach out so that arrangements can be made for you. NO SHOW POLICY: At the ten minute mark of your scheduled session, your appointment will be marked as a no-show unless you have reached out to me and we have agreed to start the session later. Typically, my sessions are scheduled back-to-back so rescheduling may be necessary.
