Brittany Buckelew , LPC

Brittany Buckelew is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with 10 years of clinical experience. She has supported individuals and couples across a broad range of emotional and behavioral concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, grief and loss, career challenges, and identity development.

Her counseling style is warm and collaborative, with an emphasis on building a trusting therapeutic relationship that allows for vulnerability and honest exploration. She approaches therapy in an integrative way, drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Existential Therapy to tailor interventions to each person’s needs.

Brittany works with clients facing stress, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and life transitions, and she offers focused support for concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, body image, communication and commitment problems, dissociation, and family of origin difficulties. Her aim is to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients can be seen and heard while developing practical skills and deeper self-understanding. She is not currently accepting clients.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take practical steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions by promoting psychological flexibility and committed action.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients lead the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and validation. This approach is useful for building self-esteem, exploring identity, and improving relationship dynamics.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and coping with bipolar symptoms or trauma-related distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Brittany collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into a busy schedule or to continue work during life changes. These options allow therapists and licensed professionals to provide consistent support in a convenient and accessible way.
