About
As a compassionate, person-centered therapist with more than a decade of experience, I use evidence-based approaches to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered as you heal, grow, and move toward your goals.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC)with 13 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life transitions. I take a compassionate, person-centered approach and strive to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered as you begin your healing journey. I work with adults and adolescents, helping clients address emotional overwhelm, unresolved pain, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected.
I earned my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Regent University. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and strengths-based approaches to tailor treatment to your needs, build coping skills, deepen insight, and support lasting wellness.
I believe healing grows through trust, clarity, and connection. My goal is to help you move forward with confidence and purpose. You can expect a supportive space to explore challenges and strengthen your resilience. If you're ready, I would be honored to walk with you toward growth.

I believe healing begins when we feel truly seen and understood, and I bring my lived experience, cross-cultural perspective, and holistic, strengths-based approach to create a safe space where you can explore your story, reconnect with your strengths, and move forward with hope.
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) serving clients in North Carolina and South Carolina. Before becoming a therapist, I spent decades in education as a K-12 Art and Special Education Teacher in the Chicago Public Schools, and homeschooling students with learning, behavioral, and emotional disabilities. I am trauma-informed and trained in EMDR, Expressive Arts, Person-Centered, and CBT, and am working toward RPT certification. I work with individuals navigating life transitions, relationships, attachment, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma, helping them move toward resilience, authenticity, and hope.
My approach is holistic, trauma-informed, and strengths-based, recognizing that healing involves mind, body, emotions, and relationships. I draw from EMDR, Expressive Arts, Person-Centered Therapy, CBT, and play-based approaches tailored to each client's needs, pace, and goals. Together, we build emotional awareness, coping skills, resilience, and hope.
You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and accepted as you are. We can take the next steps together, at a pace that feels right for you. I invite you to schedule an appointment; I would be honored to walk alongside you toward healing, resilience, and hope.

I feel I will be able to help a variety of individuals achieve their goals through therapy because of the experience I bring through years of work and personal life experiences I have gone through on my own or with my family.
Hello, I am Robert Kirby, a clinical social worker. I've worked as a clinician in the mental health field since 2001 and became a licensed clinician in 2003. Over the years, I've worked as a clinical social worker (therapist) in medical care practices, in in-patient programs for drug rehab and psychiatric care, and as a therapist for elderly clients in nursing homes, as well as with families whose loved ones are in hospice care. I believe everyone has the ability to achieve their goals with the right help and the willingness to work at it. Taking that first step toward change is the hardest step to make.
When choosing a therapist, think about what you're looking for. I challenge you to think in new ways, like asking questions about your questions or playing devil's advocate. If you're up for a challenge, I'll support your work toward your goals. Each client connects differently, so I use varied techniques in session and homework to help therapy succeed.
Working with me will bring you the success you want, as long as you're doing the work needed too. No success is achieved without hard work. I look forward to being your guiding hand as you move through the process of your therapeutic work.

As a neurodivergent and queer person, I am dedicated to helping my clients feel secure, safe, and empowered to begin their healing journey.
Hello everyone! My name is Olivia Dominey and I am a Licensed Independent Social Work- Clinical Practice (LISW-CP for short). I typically work with older teens (16 and older), adults, couples, and families who are navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, familial issues, identity exploration, neurodiversity, and difficult external stressors.
I am deeply rooted in person-centered care and a collaborative approach, which helps foster a secure and warm space for my clients to explore what their goals are for therapy. I utilize somatic therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, parts work, and EMDR.
You are taking the first steps towards your journey in healing- and that is remarkable and courageous. I am here for you when you are ready to get started and I am honored to be considered as a part of that journey.

I believe everyone, including those who seem perfectly fine on the surface, can benefit from exploring their life experiences and emotions through therapy, because we all carry things, both good and bad, that shape us and affect how we relate to others.
Michele “Mickie” Husted is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of experience helping individuals navigate emotional challenges and life transitions. After 2 decades serving as a Hospital Corpsman in the U.S. Navy, she felt called to focus more personally on emotional healing and growth.

Her approach encourages clients to build on their inner strengths.
Mickie holds a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Montreat College. She works one-on-one with clients to explore their experiences, gain clarity, and develop tools for lasting well-being. Her therapeutic space is grounded in empathy, trust, and respect.
Mickie believes therapy should feel like a conversation, not a performance. She offers a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients are heard and empowered. With a listening ear and a focus on your comfort, her goal is to help you get the most out of every session while supporting healing through honest connection and collaborative growth.

I use DBT and I utilize mindfulness because it helps the couples to communicate more effectively and be more aware of their body language as well as their tone of voice when speaking to one another.
I encourage practicing holding space for each other, allowing each person to say what is on their mind or to share their day without being interrupted by their partner, weekly business meetings where the couple can review their individual schedules as well as listing goals/household chores they would like to accomplish in that week, and daily check-ins to talk about the highlights and lowlight of their day.
I know couples are making progress when they are utilizing effective coping skills that they have identified in sessions.
Couples can practice holding weekly business meetings and daily checks-ins as well as utilizing a communication log if they are having difficulty communicating face to face.
I would encourage the couple to talk with one another about what they feel they are struggling with before the session so that they can maximize their time in the session.
Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
Being in a relationship with another person is not always easy. Communication problems, disagreements, differing values and issues around trust are struggles many couples face. Relationships are bound up in emotions, which makes navigating these issues even more complex.
Sometimes, we just don’t have the tools we need for addressing and resolving a given problem, such as jealousy, infidelity, broken trust, or financial stress. For a committed relationship to work and thrive, couples often need help learning new strategies and using new tools. This is where couples therapy comes in. At Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant, we can help you and your partner work through the issues in your relationship and create a happier, healthier future. Call us at 843-606-6223 to schedule a session with one of our experienced counselors.

Pleasant have the knowledge and expertise to help you address your relationship issues. These are just a few of the questions you may be grappling with and that we can help you resolve.
This is just a short list of challenges your couples therapist can help you address and overcome. Whatever the problem, your counselor will guide you in talking about the problem and implementing an effective plan for moving forward. If you need becoming a stronger and healthier couple, call us today to schedule your appointment. Our phone number is 843-606-6223.
