About Bertha

Bertha Myers is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and career concerns. She also supports people dealing with relationship and family difficulties, grief, addiction, mood symptoms such as depression and bipolar, and the strain of caregiving. Her tone is direct and compassionate, aimed at people who need practical help during tough transitions.

Bertha uses clear, collaborative methods so clients leave with concrete steps. She listens first, then helps set short-term goals and tried approaches that fit a person's life. Sessions emphasize skills for coping, communication, and managing emotions rather than long academic explanations.

Her background includes eight years working in clinical settings in South Carolina. That experience has exposed her to a range of concerns from trauma and abuse to substance use and compassion fatigue. She draws on what has helped others in similar situations while adapting methods to each person's needs.

Bertha commonly uses client-centered conversation, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, narrative work, and solution-focused strategies. These approaches are used to identify unhelpful patterns, build new habits, and reclaim a sense of control when life feels overwhelming.

Working with Bertha involves practical planning and steady check-ins. She helps people map the small changes that lead to better routines, clearer choices, and improved self-esteem. To begin, prospective clients answer a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

Online approaches that fit everyday life

Bertha commonly draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered work means the therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps them name what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a listening space to sort priorities and make choices.

Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve work or relationship patterns. These tools are useful for stress, anxiety, and career-related worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Bertha will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then try methods that match those needs. The plan can shift over time based on what helps most, and decisions are made collaboratively.

Session formats are not listed in the provided biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises, homework tasks, and communication practice between sessions to keep progress moving.
