Many days, pressure from others’ expectations can be mentally, physically & emotionally draining. It seems you are never good enough, always pushing toward perfection. Working hard, putting time in day and night, struggling to perform at work, school, home, with sports, family and peers. This can lead to overwhelming amounts of stress, fear, sadness, conflict, and irritability, impacting choices made. You want to feel valued and accepted, and are told to be mentally tough and stay strong. On the inside you are nervous, and fear failure. Outside pressure can be overwhelming, bringing feelings of self doubt, and fear.

Ready for things to change? Tired of feeling stuck in cycles in your relationship, your moods, your behaviours? Have there been events in your past you'd rather not have replay in your head over and over again? A sense of security, meaning and control is probably what you're looking for. In therapy you (and your partner and/or family members) will learn how to use many methods (including self-hypnosis) to speed up the process of gaining new insights and to reinforce your resolve to enact change in your life, as you choose. You remain entirely in control of your experiences.

Being a parent is tough and I’m here to help. Having worked with children and teens who struggle with anger, anxiety, and perfectionism, my first goal is to create a safe space for them to express what is causing these these behaviors and emotions. As your child begins to open up, I will invite you into these session and we will discuss what is causing these behaviors and emotions as well as strategies to help them manage it.

My name is Sarah Parker. I am a Spartanburg native and live locally with my husband and son. I have always had a passion for helping others and enjoy partnering with individuals, couples, and families to work towards healing, restoration, and peace. I received my Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Liberty University. I decided to step out on my own and form my own practice in order to provide the best counseling services possible and maintain a good work/life balance. I would love to help you work through the things in life that are keeping you from living the life you were made to live.

Taking that first step towards healing and self-improvement can be difficult but you don’t have to take that step alone. As a licensed counselor with 32 years of experience in mental health, I have the knowledge, experience and insight to walk alongside you. My approach is based on a collaborative relationship as we work together toward healing and meaningful change. I meet clients where they are in life and support them with compassion and empathy. My goal is to provide a safe space, where we can explore root causes of problems and develop a plan for self-awareness that will promote personal growth and positive change.

Our lives may bring stress that can be difficult to manage alone. Do you have difficulty setting healthy boundaries and/or finding balance in your life? Is there a history of trauma or family of origin concerns that make it even more challenging to manage from day to day? I am committed to helping you develop self-awareness and learning healthy ways of coping. My passion is providing couples, individuals and family counseling for those who are challenged with relationship concerns and unhealthy communication patterns, and are genuinely wanting change.

Do you need help navigating a particularly tough time in life? I believe that therapy can provide a space for individuals to safely and openly explore problems of any kind. My goal is to collaboratively work to create a comfortable and supportive atmosphere in which we can gain a better understanding of your problems, which can often lead to new insights about how to approach it. Finding the right therapist is often a frustrating process that takes some trial and error. But when we're able to find the right fit, it can make a difference. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have to see if we would be a good fit for one another.

“All those who wander are not lost” - J.R. Tolkien. Helping people find their way has always been something Bill has been called to do. Whether it was ministering to young people as a student pastor, connecting the unemployed to new careers at SC Works Upstate, or assisting those trying to find freedom from substance abuse at The Forrester Center for Behavioral Health, the platform may have varied, but the mission stayed the same. Meet people where they are, build relationships, and partner with them as they strive to make their lives better.

Feeling disconnected, tired, or overwhelmed by life’s responsibilities? It’s common to experience highs and lows, and sometimes the lows can overshadow the positives. Managing the balance between work, life, family, and self-care can be challenging. If you're struggling with anxiety or burnout and seeking both reassurance and effective support, you’re not alone.

I help individuals forge happy, healthy connections in their partnerships and families. I know how devastating stress, marital conflict and infidelity can be. I want to help you reconnect with each other, rediscover love and affection in your relationships, and build on the skills to make those last. I understand how affairs, addictions, childhood problems, trauma, or life stages--can come between you and a secure attachment to your mate and other family members.
