Our licensed therapists offer anxiety therapy services in South Carolina

I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 3 years of experience providing evidence-based, person-centered care. I work with adults and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, and life transitions. I partner with clients to thoughtfully integrate medication management with education and collaborative support to promote emotional stability and meaningful progress.

I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from Clemson University. My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in evidence-based practice. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, individualized treatment planning, and medication education with a focus on safety, transparency, and shared decision-making.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate it alone. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and respected. Together, we will develop a personalized plan to help you feel more balanced, confident, and supported as you move forward.

As a licensed master social worker (LMSW) with 4 years of experience, I've worked in a variety of settings where I’ve helped people navigate a range of issues including trauma, anxiety, relational conflict, and depression. From an intensive outpatient program to a major medical hospital, I’ve sat with people on some of the worst days of their lives, accompanying them through immense grief and loss, chronic stress, vicarious trauma, and major life transitions. I work with preteens to older adults using a flexible, integrative approach that weaves together evidence-based practices with each client’s individual needs and preferences.

I earned my master’s in social work from the University of Tennessee. I use tools like acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, but above all my priority is to show up as just another human in the room, navigating this hard, messy, beautiful life alongside my clients. 

In our work together, I will sit with you in your pain, your confusion, your anger, or whatever you’re bringing into the space, and help you be with it, make sense of it, and ultimately, transform it. Therapy can be hard. Life is hard. And yet here you are, because you know there’s something better waiting for you. Let’s find out what it is.

Susan Jillson is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who has 7 years of experience in the mental health field. Susan has always had a passion for serving others and decided to return to school after having children of her own to pursue a Master of Social Work (MSW). After graduating from Fordham University, she became a counselor in a residential program where she worked with clients who were struggling with a myriad of mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and substance abuse. Susan provided both individual as well as group therapy and helped to carry on the agency’s mission of reducing the barriers to treatment as well as de-stigmatizing mental health and addiction. 

Susan's approach to therapy is multifaceted as she believes that each individual has their own unique story and therefore the course of treatment is individualized to meet the specific needs of her clients, keeping in mind what stage of change they are in, their life stages, and personal challenges. She utilizes evidence-based modalities such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing. 

Susan is passionate about her work and she is a strong advocate of educating her clients and their loved ones regarding the struggles with mental health and addiction issues and how these challenges may impact each other and their support systems.
