About Bertha

Bertha Myers is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in South Carolina who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, and challenges related to parenting, career, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

She also addresses a range of related concerns including abandonment, attachment and communication problems, caregiver stress, codependency, substance issues, body image, blended family and divorce matters, and other life transitions. Myers draws on an integrative, client-centered stance that emphasizes collaboration and practical tools.

She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside mindfulness practices and narrative and solution-focused techniques to help clients identify unhelpful patterns, reframe difficult stories, and develop concrete coping strategies. Over eight years of practice, she has worked to help people build resilience and healthier habits while honoring each person’s background and goals.

Her delivery aims to be compassionate and attuned, encouraging clients to explore their experiences, strengthen communication skills, and move toward meaningful change at a sustainable pace.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Bertha often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into her online practice. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress; it is well suited to clients who want structured strategies and measurable steps. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and building a strong therapeutic relationship so clients feel heard and supported as they explore personal goals and values.

Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to consider their needs, preferences, and goals and adjusts techniques over time so the approach fits the individual rather than the other way around. This helps people try different tools and settle on what feels most useful.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions, access care from different locations within South Carolina, and choose the communication style that best supports progress.
