About Bertha
Bertha Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and major life changes. She works with problems like parenting struggles, addiction, compassion fatigue, and career concerns. Bertha aims to make therapy straightforward and useful for everyday life.
Her style is warm and collaborative. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on practical steps that fit each person's routine.
Background and approach
She listens for the story behind the problem and looks for moments where change can begin. Bertha often uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe painful memories and find different meanings in their lives. She combines that with Client-Centered methods to keep the work grounded in the client's priorities.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness tools are added when helpful for coping with anxiety, depression, or intrusive thoughts. With eight years of experience, she guides people through grief, trauma and abuse, and longstanding patterns such as codependency or communication problems. She also supports those navigating divorce, aging issues, or caregiver stress.
Her work covers both immediate problem-solving and longer-term personal growth. Sessions are offered in English and available online by video, phone, chat, or text messaging. Bertha uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

Online session options
How narrative and practical approaches work online
The therapist often uses Narrative Therapy, which helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and consider different meanings. This approach can be useful for grief, trauma, relationship patterns, and long-standing personal themes. Client-Centered Therapy is also a core part of her work, meaning sessions follow the client's lead and focus on what feels most important to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and adjust techniques over time. The work can start with narrative exploration and then move to skill-building or mindfulness practices as needed, based on what the client wants to try.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a short break at work or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and ongoing support possible between scheduled sessions. These options help people keep therapy consistent around family, work, and daily life.
