More about me

Licensing: LPC Years in Practice: 7 State: South Carolina

I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor, and I specialize in anxiety, anger, stress, depression, grief, conflict resolution, and addiction. These are the components that worsen every other area in life. I received my Masters in Mental Health in 2016, and my approach to counseling is to identify the thinking styles that are causing the most significant dysfunction. It is to identify the visible and hidden areas. I have written programs to assist individuals with personal issues, couples, and groups. I work with singles, couples, the elderly, and I have worked in the helping profession for over 25 years. We make the decisions that we make because of available options and past experiences, but with better decisions comes better health.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Dr Myers has been supportive and provided clear, constructive feedback on how to introspectively analyze my issues

Bertha is so understanding and amazing at explaining concepts for me to gain a better understanding. I feel more refreshed after our sessions every time.

I came back to therapy because of the great advise and expertise of Ms. Bertha Myers. She is a beautiful balance of to the point all while proving the empathy and support you need.

She has been so helpful to me in such a short period of time. She is my crutch while my legs are weak.

There are not enough words that can properly identify Bertha. Though she keeps it very professional, her vibe puts you at ease. She engages and connects with you on a level you would not think of as a therapist. It’s like talking to my best friend. She just gets me. Though I can be difficult and have walls up. She knows how to break them to help me release and conquer all goals. She is quite awesome!

In such a short time. I have grown with the tool Bertha has given me. She is good at her profession.

Bertha is professional, personable, and welcoming. She maintains objectivity and is a good role model.

Very responsive and responds to messages on a timely matter. Very respectful and doesn’t put you down in anyway. Respects your feelings an all.

I’ve only had one session with my counselor, but even in that one session she was able to pick up on what I was (and sometimes wasn’t) saying. I felt like she heard me, which was evident in her responses to me and what I want to work on.

Bertha Myers is very thorough and insightful. She provides various tools and exercises to enhance therapy.

She’s great and has had a huge positive impact on my life

Wonderful to work with! Very helpful

Professional, compassionate, direct with a gentleness that’s sometimes necessary and most importantly she is EFFECTIVE

Bertha analyzes situations from all angles to allow new perspectives. I don’t think there’s anything I feel uncomfortable telling her. She always has a much appreciated insight and is willing to do the research if she is unsure of something.

Bertha has an amazing method of connecting with her clients. She is calm and focuses more on finding the root cause of an issue versus focusing directly on the issue. I presented. I have never been more reflective on my life and who I really am since working with Bertha.

Bertha is a therapist very focused on her work, her comments are timely and very helpful!

Bertha is wonderful! She is knowledgeable, calm, caring, firm, and light hearted. My time with her has helped me tremendously and I highly recommend her.

Very knowledgeable and easy to talk to.

Bertha has been the best therapist I have ever had. Prior to meeting her I struggled to open up to multiple other therapists, but when I met her I just knew that she would be the right match for me. In the 2 years I have been with her she helped me uncover my strengths and weaknesses and how to be okay with both of them. She is kind, funny, inviting, anything you would want in a therapist.

Bertha is a breath of fresh air. I can’t recommend her enough. I came to her at one of my lowest points ever and within a couple of sessions I felt clearer and more hopeful about my life and circumstances. She is warm, encouraging, and very perceptive. That is so important when you have a hard time expressing yourself sometimes. I progressed so quickly under her care and my loved ones and I are so so grateful for that.

Bertha is warm and kind. She offers a variety of ways to help you work through your challenges.

I was nervous about beginning online therapy with a therapist I did not know or was referred to. I have been amazed at how well Bertha fits what I need from a therapist. While we address my past trauma we don't linger in the past, instead she is teaching me constructively how to deal effectively with my present. She is amazing with communication and gives me something to work on every day. She us relatable,super knowledgeable and able to communicate things in a way Icompletely understand. I am grateful for her and my new therapy routine, it is helping me heal as I live my life and to understand my reactions to my triggers and to choose responses that much better reflect my core beliefs and values.

Lots of thought provoking questions

She is a genuine and kind person she always listens and helps in ways un imaginable I am truly blessed that she allows me in her life ♥️

I'm growing into the person I am meant to be. Working towards what I am leaving behind with her help. I am in a much better place.

Wonderful therapist and I will be using tools she helped me discover to manage my emotions for many months to come.

I really appreciate Bertha. She provides the support that I was initially sought for when I signed up for better help.

I've only been working with Bertha Myers for almost a month now but I'm already feeling so much better! She provides multiple tools a week that are not only useful, but also allow me to reflect on myself. She asks tough questions, which are necessary in developing empathy and seeing things from a different perspective. I am so grateful for her expertise!

She actually gives me advice and doesn’t just listen. Bertha will tell me really tough truths because that what good therapists do.

As usual, Bertha Meyers has helped me tremendously and I truly appreciate her being there to get me through things

Wonderful working with Bertha these past few years. She has been very helpful in assisting me with navigating through some difficult changes in my life.

Excellence

Bertha is a great fit for me, it seems like the pre screen questionnaire worked perfectly.

Man she has helped is helping me with a very tough time in my life. I’ve never felt so comfortable just saying how I felt in the now till o started working with her. Great experience this far.

I find that I respond quite well to her. She has offered me a "no pressure" kind of therapy and that has helped this introvert quite a bit.

“I’m especially grateful for Mrs. Bertha Myers because of her help, patience, guidance and understanding of my situation.” Be well and thank you!

Bertha is the best! She has helped me tremendously. Talking to her has made me enjoy therapy again after a bad experience. Thank you Bertha!

Bertha has a been a tremendous source of help and guidance for me during these challenging times. I truly appreciate her help. She listens. She is kind. Has helped me navigate some difficult decisions over the course of the past year. Would highly recommend.

I love working with Bertha, she listens and responds quickly to messages and my concerns. We focus on what I need to process each session and I would recommend her to anyone in search of a trustworthy and reliable therapist.

I am completely confident that Dr. Myers is an expert in her field of therapy and she is absolutely capable of helping our family heal and re-establish healthy relationships and lifestyles. I thank you in advance and thank you for taking this challenge! Godspeed!

After we’ve had our session for the week, Ms. Myers’s always send the right resource (information) for me to reflect on until the next session. She’s an excellent Therapist!

When I have a session with Ms. Myers, I feel "heard." She listens actively and helps me reframe negative thoughts so I'm not immobilized by them. Her wise, pragmatic counsel has really pulled me out of a funk these last couple of months.

She's very thorough and has great info she send along with therapy. A pleasure to work with.

She's the best. Her genuine love and care is par none!!

She is very personable, is respectful and helps me in many ways!

Ms. Myers help me understand my own thinking. She make sure that I understand she is not trying to offend me. She also help me understand that I am not alone.

Bertha is knowledgeable, empathetic, relates and has concrete CBT methods to assist. I would highly recommend Bertha to anyone in need!

I haven't been working with Bertha for very long but I am incredibly happy with the discussions in our therapy sessions and the progress we are making so far. I cannot wait to continue this journey with her! :)

Ms. Myers has been incredible. She is very professional and exactly what I needed and was lacking from my previous therapist. Only she can approach issues with the hard-pill-to-swallow mentality while simultaneously being empathetic and nurturing. This approach is EXACTLY what I need to process my grief and process my feelings about the future.

Bertha has been extremely helpful since I have been working with her these past few months. Really helpful in helping me to gain insight into certain area of my life.

She is very easy to talk to and has great insight to ideas that can teach you coping skills and how to control your emotions within that moment.

Bertha is highly recommended. She commands each meeting with calm and clear language. Bertha has a demeanor of support and care, but will help you get to the root of your problems without sugar-coating it. As a skeptic on therapy and someone who questions the concept of paying for someone to “pretend to care about or listen to me”- Bertha has defied those fears and displayed genuine care and support for things I struggle with. She is well-versed in a variety of issues and is someone who truly desires to help you with yours.

Bertha is kind, relatable and helpful. I always feel comfortable talking with her and she has unique insights on what I bring to the table.

Very knowledgeable & a great listener. Bertha gives great tools to help you become successful.

Bertha provides a safe and understanding environment for each session. She also has the best tools to help learn and grow!

Bertha is a very good listener and understands my concerns and issues I might share with her. She is very responsive and always gets back to me in a timely manner. I like the way she is straightforward so I always know what to expect. In between our weekly sessions she tales the time to send me very useful worksheets.

Bertha is AMAZING. She speaks to me like a friend giving good solid advice and she truly hears me.

Bertha allows me to express my view on my issues while still giving me a different perspective and way of looking at the situations. She also gives me tools that I never knew I needed to use. Its been really helpful

Bertha Myers has been a total Godsend! She has helped me so much over the last couple months. I’m so glad that I signed up for better help and I feel incredibly blessed that Bertha was the one that I was matched with. She is understanding and has been very thorough in helping me work through the issues that I’ve been having. My outlook on things is so much better now that I’m able to successfully process my thoughts and emotions.

My counselor is AMAZING

Bertha is the absolute best, she tells it to you straight whether you are ready to hear it or not. She’s genuine, honest, and the best fit for me because she is direct. She doesn’t take the approach of I only care because this is a paycheck. She loves what she does and is ABSOLUTELY GENUINE in all approaches. She honestly care about you as a person and helping you create better ways of making life better for you in all aspects. She provides me with everyday tools to ensure O make decisions that affect the change I desire in my life. She is the best!

My first session with Bertha Myers felt like a weight being lifted off my chest!

Working with Bertha has been a breath of fresh air and an experience that I look forward to on a weekly basis. She is the most attentive listener providing great insights on any issue that I present to her and giving me the tools necessary to control the situation and set boundaries and to come out of them whole and at peace

Bertha is amazing. She’s personable and knows what to say when I can’t discover the root of the problem.

She is great

Great counselor and looking forward to continue to work with her.

Bertha is super awesome! She is unlike any counselor I've had! She gives me active goals and ways to manage my problems as well as talking about anything that is bothering me! Other therapists that I've had didn't give me ways to actively challenge my anxiety and healthy ways to cope we would just talk about anxiety as a whole. That's what I love about Bertha! She gives me weekly goals that have greatly improved my daily life with severe anxiety and panic attacks!

Bertha is lovely and knowledgeable, she really cares and puts effort into meeting me where I am and understanding me

I really appreciate how Ms. Myers pays attention to how I am feeling and she also follows up with me to see how I am progressing. She listens and she cares, I look forward to my therapy sessions with her.

Bertha is great. She’s real, honest, and kind. She’s helping me get back to my true self. And I can’t thank her enough.

Bertha is great at what she does. I love her methods and how she breaks everything down. I feel comfortable doing therapy with her.

I have been with Bertha since October 2020. What a pleasure our sessions have been. She has helped me tremendously. Gave me back my confidence and found strength I didn’t know I had. She guided me through rough times, provided me with incredible tools that I use every day. Amazing person and counselor

She's wonderful!!! Its like talking to my beat friend !! Direct, INTENTIONAL, practical and gentle

I highly recommend this counselor. I worked with Bertha during a difficult time when I was dealing with depression, anxiety, and alcohol abuse. She helped me get my life back on track and improved my positivity. I don't know what I wouldhave done without her help!

It is a relief to have a counselor who understands my culture without judgement. She is a prime example of why representation is so important in clinical settings. She listens to what I'm saying and appropriately keeps me focused on goals.

What I love most about Bertha is her holding space for me to be exactly who I am while helping me to gain important insight about who that is. She has been so receptive to all of my processing, and the self-work assignments have been really pivotal in helping me reach understanding beyond the scope of what we discuss during sessions. I’d recommend Bertha to anyone seeking therapy, especially during this moment when it’s important for us to recognize ourselves as co-creators of our realities and to stay afloat during these wild times.

Very helpful. Sessions give me a lot of insight and help with life stressors and strategies to dealing with them.

I have been working with Bertha for a few weeks now. This being my first counseling experience, I was initially apprehensive about if I would be able to open up to a stranger. Bertha made that a really easy transition. Her compassion and very detailed attention to my issues alongside tangible things I can put into action to improve has been so helpful. I'm glad a made the decision to try something different .

Bertha is excellent in her knowledge & understanding, and in how she interacts with me. I really need her help and she senses a lot i cant put into words.
