Local Resources to Greenville, SC (UPDATED 7/14/2019)
Counselors and other mental health professionals often work isolated or disconnected from the colleagues working one wall away. The way we stay connected oftentimes is through local resources, which happens to be how we also help clients connect outside the counseling room.
Here are some helpful resources below. Anything missing? Contact me and I’d be interested to see if I can help you connect (or add it to the list).
