About Bertha

Bertha Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on common and urgent concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, grief, addiction, and coping with life changes. Parents and adults who feel overwhelmed by anger, low self-esteem, or career pressure may find practical support here.

Bertha uses clear, goal-focused conversations to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals. Client-Centered Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy show up in how she listens and helps clients notice present-moment responses.

Sessions typically map out concrete steps clients can try between meetings. That can look like practicing new communication habits, testing alternative ways of thinking, or building small routines to reduce stress. She also works with issues tied to trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, caregiving stress, and substance concerns using stabilizing and practical methods.

Bertha has supported people dealing with attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family pressures, body image struggles, and decision points such as divorce or career change. Her practice includes work with bipolar mood challenges and recurring depression when people want structure for symptom management. The tone in sessions is collaborative and focused on usable tools.

Clients who choose to work with Bertha begin by describing the problem and a near-term goal. From there she and the client decide which methods to try and which small steps to prioritize. This profile is intended to help people decide whether to learn more and start a first appointment.

How her approaches translate to online work

Bertha commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns in thinking and behavior and to try small, structured experiments that test new responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and practical coping skills. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can clarify what matters to them and set personal goals.

Mindfulness Therapy appears as short exercises aimed at noticing bodily and mental reactions in the moment. These practices are used to reduce reactivity and improve attention to what is happening now. Each approach is described and applied in plain terms so clients know what to expect and can choose what fits their needs.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Bertha will review goals, try selected approaches, and adjust the plan based on what the client reports. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize CBT exercises, reflective listening, or mindfulness practices.

Session format options are not listed here; please confirm current session options before booking. Many people use online sessions because they can fit meetings into work or caregiving schedules, avoid travel time, and make it easier to attend shorter check-ins. Online work can also let clients practice skills between sessions in the settings where they live and work.
