Marsha Tunstall , LPC

Marsha Tunstall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with 25 years of clinical experience. She has worked extensively with people coping with stress and anxiety, those facing addiction, and individuals processing grief and loss. Her practice also supports clients seeking greater motivation, improved self esteem, and increased confidence in daily life.

Marsha approaches therapy from a strengths-based perspective, honoring the idea that each person is the expert of their own story and already holds resources to move forward. She encourages clients to build on those strengths while offering guidance and practical tools to address challenges. Beginning therapy often requires courage, and Marsha commits to providing steady support through that first step and beyond.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Marsha combines empathy with evidence-informed techniques to help people navigate transitions and recover a sense of balance and purpose. Her work aims to create meaningful progress grounded in the client’s goals and lived experience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Marsha often draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the client’s experience and emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration to help people find their own answers. This approach is well suited for those seeking a supportive space to explore feelings and build self-understanding. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new coping strategies; CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, low mood, and stress-related concerns. Motivational Interviewing is another tool in her practice, useful for strengthening motivation to change and supporting clients working through ambivalence around behaviors such as substance use.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marsha works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. She tailors interventions and adjusts strategies as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy schedules and life transitions while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can adapt methods to remote formats.
