About Brittany

Brittany Buckelew is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, self-esteem concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, and identity questions within the LGBT community.

Background and approach

With a decade of clinical experience, she brings a collaborative, empathic presence to therapeutic work and supports clients coping with career changes, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and complex family dynamics. Her approach blends Internal Family Systems (IFS) with evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT).

Brittany emphasizes the therapeutic relationship and creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore attachment patterns, abandonment wounds, codependency, communication problems, and issues around forgiveness and family of origin. Treatment is tailored to each person, integrating techniques that match their needs and goals.

She offers flexible session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Prospective clients in South Carolina can expect a warm, steady clinician who values collaboration and practical coping strategies while honoring the personal meaning behind each person’s experience.

Integrating therapeutic approaches for online care



Internal Family Systems (IFS) offers a model that helps people explore inner parts and how those parts relate to one another, which can be useful for addressing internal conflicts, self-criticism, and patterns that show up in relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and learning practical skills to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking value-driven action, often helping with stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and provides structured techniques to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and improve coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Brittany works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best suit their needs, goals, and preferences. She blends elements from these frameworks as appropriate and invites clients to provide feedback so treatment can be adjusted over time.

Online therapy formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit counseling into busy lives and to maintain consistency across changing schedules. These options support flexible access to licensed professionals and allow people to continue therapy when in-person visits are impractical, while still engaging in meaningful, goal-oriented work.
