01About Sue
Sue Herring is a licensed professional counselor who brings 27 years of clinical experience to her work in South Carolina. She listens with attention and helps people sort through anxiety, stress, grief, and trauma. She believes clients know their own stories and aims to support them as they choose new directions.
Her path to counseling began in the arts and the restaurant business before she returned to school in her forties.
Background and approach
She earned a Bachelor of Arts in psychology from Florida State University and a Master of Arts in counseling psychology from Troy University. Those life and career changes shaped her practical, down-to-earth style. Sue uses familiar, straightforward methods that focus on the person in front of her.
She draws on client-centered work to build trust and on cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also includes trauma-focused and emotionally oriented approaches when addressing painful memories and relationship patterns. Sessions are meant to be collaborative and goal-directed.
Sue helps people set small, manageable steps and checks in on progress. She also offers coaching-style work for parenting concerns, life transitions, and caregiver stress. Therapy is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Sessions are delivered in English. Sue holds licenses as an LPC in South Carolina and as an LMHC in Florida and combines clinical experience with practical problem solving.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Client-centered work focuses on understanding each person's perspective and building a trusting working relationship, which helps when someone needs a calm space to talk through stress, grief, or relationship concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage panic, and change unhelpful patterns. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on processing painful memories and reducing their ongoing impact so daily life can improve.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, life circumstances, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they pick or blend methods that fit the person's needs and preferences, and that plan can be adjusted as work progresses.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for richer conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text can be useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style guidance, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options help people connect with a licensed professional while fitting therapy into busy lives.
