Meet Our Charleston Therapists
Finding a therapist in Charleston, SC can feel overwhelming. There are many options, and it’s hard to know where to start—especially when you’re already dealing with anxiety, stress, or a difficult life transition. Whether you’re looking for individual therapy for yourself, couples counseling for your relationship, family therapy for your household, or support for your child or teenager, you want a licensed therapist who actually fits your needs.
Here’s how to find therapists in Charleston who are the right match.
Start by identifying what you need: Are you seeking support for yourself, your child, your teen, or your family? Charleston offers many qualified mental health professionals, including licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), licensed professional counselors (LPCs), clinical psychologists, and family therapists who specialize in different areas.
Online directories like Psychology Today allow filtering by specialty, insurance, and location. The Therapy Group of Charleston serves Mt. Pleasant, downtown Charleston, Daniel Island, Johns Island, and communities throughout the Lowcountry with both in-person and online therapy options.
Both therapists and psychologists provide mental health care, but their training differs. Clinical psychologists hold doctoral degrees (PhD or PsyD) and can provide psychological testing and assessment. Licensed professional counselors have master’s degrees and provide therapy for mental health challenges. For most people seeking counseling for anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, family conflict, or life transitions, either can be excellent choices.
Focus on finding someone whose specialization matches your needs—whether that’s child therapy, couples counseling, or trauma treatment.
Look for licensed mental health professionals with credentials like LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist), LISW-CP (Licensed Independent Social Worker), or licensed clinical psychologists. Many therapists in Charleston specialize in evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR therapy, or trauma-informed care.
If you’re seeking support for children or adolescents, ask about specialized training in child and adolescent therapy, play therapy, or family therapy.
The best therapy depends on your unique needs and challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is highly effective for anxiety disorders and depression. EMDR therapy helps with trauma processing. Family therapy addresses family conflict and communication issues. Couples counseling helps partners navigate relationship challenges.
For children and teens, approaches like play therapy and Trauma-Focused CBT are often recommended. At Therapy Group of Charleston, our therapists use evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s situation.
Therapy is a collaborative process between you and your therapist. The first session typically focuses on understanding your history, current challenges, and goals. Together, you’ll develop a treatment plan and work step-by-step to build practical coping skills, explore patterns, and create lasting change.
Therapy sessions usually last 45-50 minutes and occur weekly, though frequency can be adjusted based on your needs. It often takes a few sessions to feel fully comfortable with your therapist—that’s normal and part of building trust.
Therapy in Charleston, SC costs vary, but understanding your options can make mental health care more affordable than you expect. Whether you have health insurance and plan to seek reimbursement, are paying out of pocket, or need flexible payment options, here’s what you need to know about therapy costs in South Carolina.
According to FAIR Health data, the typical cost for a therapy session in Mt. Pleasant is $207 for a 50-minute session. Costs across Charleston vary based on the therapist’s experience, credentials (clinical psychologists often charge more than licensed counselors), and session type (family therapy or couples counseling may have different rates than individual therapy).
Many health insurance plans cover mental health services, including therapy. The Therapy Group of Charleston is an out-of-network practice, but we handle the insurance paperwork for you. We submit claims electronically to your insurance company so you can get reimbursed without the hassle of dealing with superbills yourself.
Many of our clients receive significant reimbursement for out-of-network mental health care—the exact amount depends on your specific plan’s out-of-network benefits.
In-network therapists have contracts with insurance companies and accept negotiated rates directly. Out-of-network therapists don’t have these contracts—you’ll pay the session fee upfront, but can receive reimbursement if your plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits.
Many experienced therapists choose to remain out-of-network to provide more flexible, client-centered care without insurance company restrictions on treatment length, session frequency, or therapeutic approaches.
At Therapy Group of Charleston, we handle all the insurance paperwork for you, submitting claims electronically so you can focus on getting better, not managing paperwork.
Most insurance plans in South Carolina now cover telehealth services, including online therapy, even for out-of-network providers. Telehealth services allow you to receive professional counseling from home, which can be especially convenient for busy families, parents managing children’s schedules, or those in more remote areas of the Lowcountry.
We handle the insurance submission process for telehealth sessions just as we do for in-person appointments.
