Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in South Carolina

Feeling stressed-out? Life can be difficult. That’s why I am wholistic in my work with clients. As a cognitive behavioral therapist, I work with clients’ feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. In addition, as a Certified Brain Health Coach, I suggest strategies which provide efficient pathways to emotional wellbeing. Since everyone has unique strengths and needs, I work with clients to tailor a healing pathway which best suits each person individually. Clients are an active part of the therapeutic process. With over 20 years experience, my areas of expertise include stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, and parenting skills.

If you suffer from OCD, uncontrollable worry, anxiety, or panic attacks, you might feel like your symptoms control you and you are powerless to stop them. Your intrusive thoughts, compulsions, or worries may be having a negative impact on your relationships at home, work, or school. Having OCD can be debilitating and is often misunderstood - even by medical doctors and therapists. There is hope! Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT) like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are effective treatments for these conditions.

Is your relationship struggling and you are considering couples counseling? All relationships go through rough patches but sometimes we need help from an objective outsider who can offer insight and direction on how to move beyond past hurts and move towards a relationship with better communication and respect for each other's differences. Or is it that you have been feeling so much anxiety, stress, and depression that you feel you have no idea how to manage your daily emotions? We all have times where we need a supportive person and someone to help empower us to get back to our best self.

Mental health is steadily gaining global recognition. Fortunately, with exposure comes greater access to treatment for those with mental health concerns. Unfortunately, the flip-side to increased exposure is standardization; society is quick to turn to diagnoses and labels to simplify the complexities of human beings. Although diagnoses can be helpful, it is important to remember: you are not just not a label or a diagnosis. With Cal Hilsman at Compassionate Acceptance for Life (CAL), you will find a therapist that prizes each client as unique and encourages self exploration beyond the standard internet search.
