Congratulations on taking the first step to feeling better!! My name is Kyra and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina. The bulk of my training is trauma (childhood to recent, domestic violence, TBI, etc.), stress and anxiety, and crisis intervention. I also have experience with parenting issues, depression, addiction, relationships, and low self-esteem. I received my Masters Degree in Counseling from Webster University in 2010 and my Bachelors Degree in Psychology from the University of South Carolina Columbia campus in 2004. My internships were spent working with survivors of sexual abuse at a local rape crisis center and working with individuals in pre-trial intervention (PTI) and other diversion programs offered through a local Judicial Circuit's Solicitor's Office. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults up to 90 years old. I have experience providing educational trainings, skills development classes, group counseling, individual counseling, family counseling, and support group counseling. I believe that everyone is their own, unique individual with their own, unique challenges so I pull material from various evidence based best practice therapy models and tailor each session to each individual's unique needs. I believe everyone deserves respect, sensitivity, and time to process and grow. I am solution focused, honest, straightforward, and have been called a cynical optimist. I will be your biggest supporter and your #1 fan. I will cheer you on each step of the way. Together we can confront any challenges head on, working toward change and improvement. My ultimate goal is to help you build a solid foundation promoting stability, self-compassion, and purpose through patience, courage, and perseverance. That is...............if you're ready. Let's begin. Allow me the opportunity to guide you through the process. You've got this!

Hello! My name is Jessica Milgrome, and I have been a licensed mental health clinician for the past 10 years. I am also a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (Career Counselor) and a Nationally Certified Counselor. My therapeutic approach is centered around the belief that therapy should be the least stressful aspect of your life. I have a very modern, casual style, and I aim to create a supportive and relaxed environment where you can feel comfortable and open. I have a very informal, direct, and casual style of communicating, often incorporating humor into our sessions. I like to ask questions and am happy to direct the session if that’s preferred, or I can simply sit and listen. I appreciate when clients tell me if they are seeking guidance, feedback, or just want to vent. I have worked with clients facing a wide range of concerns, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, ADHD, and relationship issues such as breakups and marital conflicts. I also have experience in managing more severe mental health conditions like psychosis and trauma. My expertise extends to helping individuals cope with grief and loss, as well as addressing anger management issues. In addition to these areas, I focus on the development of interpersonal relationships, helping clients build and maintain healthy connections with others. I provide practical support with job placement and interview skills training, assisting clients in navigating career transitions and enhancing their professional lives. Most importantly, I offer guidance in cultivating self-love and navigating the process of forgiveness. I believe that developing a strong sense of self-worth and the ability to forgive oneself and others are crucial steps toward emotional healing and personal growth. My approach is holistic, addressing both the emotional and practical aspects of my clients' lives to help them achieve a balanced and fulfilling life. To give you an idea of the type of person I am—I'm a massive fan of stand-up comedy (laughing is life), I actually look forward to Mondays because that’s when Spotify releases new Discover Weekly playlists, and "When words fail, let the music speak" is essentially my mantra. Oh, and I have six dogs! As a therapist, my goal is to help my clients become the best version of themselves. Working together, we will improve self-esteem, identify triggers of symptoms, develop and effectively utilize coping skills, explore psychoeducational materials on areas of concern, facilitate and improve family relationships, discuss the effects of psychotropic medications, and develop a strong sense of self. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I do not believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps toward change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you! Jessica Milgrome

Starting or re-starting therapy can sometimes feel overwhelming – it takes courage to look at how you’re feeling or what you’re going through and decide to reach out to a therapist who can walk with you through challenging emotions, relationship dynamics, life changes, and personal goals. Maybe you’re not quite sure where to start, but you know you would like to explore what you’re feeling, your identity, or ways to continue to grow. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, I seek to create a safe, respectful space to embrace this vulnerable work. I believe our identities are shaped by our thoughts, feelings, relationships, trauma (from acute to generational), and systemic factors that impact our wellbeing. We carry the weight of our past and messages we receive in the words and actions of others every day. I will be a therapist who helps you examine your experiences, thoughts, and feelings in the context of relationships and society to understand yourself as you are and as you want to become. It is normal when doing this inner work to feel sadness, shame, or fear. Together, we can identify diverse coping skills rooted in cognitive, behavioral, dialectical, and emotion-focused therapies as we encounter these emotions. My goal as your therapist is to be present for you, to help you feel seen, heard, and recognize your inherent dignity and self-worth. My clinical areas of specialty are depression, anxiety, healing from trauma, burnout, identity development, chronic illness, and communication skills. My therapy style is warm, empathetic, client-centered, and trauma informed. My approach as a therapist echoes Robert Frost when he said, “The best way out is always through.” In my spare time, I enjoy listening to true crime podcasts and a wide range of music, watercolor, crochet, reading, the outdoors, and learning to cook new recipes. It is a privilege to connect with you and start this meaningful work.

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) in South Carolina. I've been working in mental health for more than 25 years, and I have experience in helping clients in many areas. It is important for me that clients I assist experience an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I often use humor to encourage this, and I always welcome feedback (good or bad) as I believe constructive criticism is as vital to my growth as a provider as the "pats on the back." I recognize that taking the first step to seeking therapy and focusing on the creation of a a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I welcome the opportunity to support you in that process.
