About Sue
Sue Herring is a licensed counselor with 27 years of professional experience. She holds LPC and LMHC credentials and practices in South Carolina. Sue focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and relationship concerns.
She believes clients are the experts on their own stories and brings a respectful, strengths-based attitude to sessions. Sue aims to support and empower people who are ready to make changes. She speaks plainly and keeps goals realistic and doable.
How Sue works
Sue previously worked in the restaurant industry and studied fine arts before returning to school in her forties. She earned a BA in Psychology from Florida State University and an MA in Counseling Psychology from Troy University. That varied background informs her practical, down-to-earth approach.
In session she uses approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused strategies, solution-focused planning, and trauma-focused methods. She adapts methods to each person rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions often focus on building coping skills, managing intense emotions, and improving communication.
Common topics she addresses include parenting stress, adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, caregiver strain, intimacy and relationship concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and coping with life transitions. She also works with matters like shame, guilt, panic, and recovery from sexual assault and abuse. Sue offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs.
Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and she conducts therapy in English in South Carolina.

Online support options
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Client-centered work focuses on the person's perspective and strengths. It involves listening, reflecting, and helping clients set goals that matter to them. This approach is useful for people who want a supportive space to sort out feelings and make practical plans.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple, goal-focused exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful behavior. CBT can help with panic, worry, sleeping problems, and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals in formats that fit busy lives: video calls for full conversations, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, quick check-ins by live chat, and ongoing support through text-based messaging. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent, fit sessions around work or caregiving, and use shorter formats for brief updates or focused skill practice.
