Brittany Buckelew, LPC

Brittany Buckelew is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, and issues around identity and self‑esteem. She brings ten years of clinical experience to her work and often supports clients navigating trauma, family conflict, and major life changes.

Brittany aims for a warm, collaborative tone in sessions. She meets people where they are and encourages honest, straightforward conversation. Her style is focused on practical steps and real change rather than jargon or long explanations.

She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs, drawing on cognitive behavioral ideas along with acceptance and emotion‑focused methods. That means sessions often combine looking at unhelpful thoughts, learning new coping strategies, and working through emotional patterns that keep problems repeating.

Brittany pays close attention to relationship patterns, attachment wounds, and issues like abandonment, codependency, or commitment fears. She also addresses concerns such as body image, dissociation, forgiveness, and the fallout from divorce or major loss.

Her goal is to create a welcoming space where clients feel seen and can try new ways of coping. She works together with each person to set clear goals, test small changes between sessions, and adjust the plan as progress happens.

Approaches that translate well to online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stressful life changes by giving concrete tools to practice between sessions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, then choose actions that match their values. This approach can help with grief, identity concerns, and chronic stress by clarifying what matters and building small steps toward it.

Client‑Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the person’s own goals guide the work. This style fits well with online formats because the therapist’s role is to listen, reflect, and help the client shape their path.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and preferences and recommend strategies to try. If an approach isn’t working, they will adjust the plan together so sessions stay useful and relevant.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text messaging. Video is helpful when visual interaction matters, phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging is useful for brief check‑ins or flexible communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine and to maintain contact while working toward goals.
