About Linda

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 20 years of clinical experience, Linda Jarels focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes. She also works with issues such as self-esteem, addictions, relationship concerns, family matters, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, anger, and HIV/AIDS. Linda practices using approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

Linda frames sessions as practical conversations about what is happening now and what the person wants to change. She helps people identify patterns that keep them stuck and then practices new ways to respond. Sessions often include straightforward skill practice, brief exercises, and discussion about daily challenges.

Her background spans two decades in community and clinical settings in South Carolina. That experience informs a steady, pragmatic style aimed at building coping skills and improving day-to-day functioning. Linda emphasizes short-term problem solving when appropriate and deeper exploration when needed.

She pays particular attention to adults managing long-term health conditions, including people affected by HIV/AIDS, and to those dealing with loss or major transitions. Linda uses mindfulness and acceptance strategies to reduce distress and cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.

People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that reviews goals and adjusts methods as therapy progresses. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to set priorities and next steps.

How her therapeutic approaches work in remote sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting controlled by them. It emphasizes values-based action so people can take steps that matter even when emotions feel heavy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that maintain distress and then testing small changes to alter those patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Linda collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs and goals. She adjusts techniques over time, combining strategies like mindfulness, ACT, and CBT as the situation requires.
