Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 2.4 mi away • Mount Pleasant, SC


Hi, I’m Lauren. I’m a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a National Certified Counselor (NCC) who works with individuals navigating challenges like narcissistic abuse, narcissistic family systems, high-conflict or emotionally manipulative relationships, and grief after separation or divorce. I also work with adults who recognize narcissistic traits in themselves and want to better understand their patterns, strengthen emotional awareness, and improve their relationships.

I received formal training in both Christian-informed and secular counseling through my graduate education at Liberty University. Faith is never assumed or imposed; when clients identify with a spiritual or religious tradition, we work together to determine whether and how those beliefs might be meaningfully integrated into therapy.

I blend evidence-based approaches with genuine, compassionate connection, so you can feel understood and supported while learning skills to navigate life’s challenges.

Welcome!

I’m Beverly Zimmerman—a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges with more ease, clarity, and confidence. I know how overwhelming it can feel to carry so much on your own, and I want you to know—you don’t have to.

My work is grounded in deep compassion and real connection. I specialize in supporting individuals who are dealing with anxiety, trauma, body image distress, and life transitions. I have been in your shoes, and I know how lost, lonely, and desperate that can feel. Whether you’re feeling stuck, burned out, or just not yourself lately, I offer a supportive space where you can take a breath, show up just as you are, and begin the process of meaningful change.

Therapy with me isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress. Together, we’ll work toward creating the kind of life and inner peace that feels more like you.

I help clients process trauma & recover from substance disorders. I work with survivors of domestic violence, coercive control, childhood abuse, sexual abuse & those suffering from anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, SI, grief, co-dependence & ADD. EMDR is available for clients who find they can't “shake-off” the past, as it lives in the present. EMDR allows my clients to move through their trauma and put it where belongs, in the past. Trauma is not your fault but healing is your responsibility.

Hi,

I'm Shanda. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor trained in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Human Development and veteran. After leaving the military and working for the government a while, I went back to school so I could serve in this field. It has turned out to be the most rewarding time of my life.

Albertina Washington-Green

Therapist

Virtual • South Carolina


Hello there, my number one priority is to see clients within 1 to 5 business days to begin the process of assisting them with a hot topic known as "Life-ing." Today, I consider myself blessed because I find it rewarding in seeing clients reach their maximum potential. In addition to my mental health background for over 28 years, I have my own life experiences, coupled with being married to a minister, motherhood, and personal trauma, which have proven to be beneficial in my scope of practice.

I have done extensive work with grief/loss, anxiety, relational, premarital, substance use, and Christian Counseling.
