About Abreia
Abreia Epps is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, intimacy issues, depression, LGBT topics, parenting challenges, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Abreia also addresses family of origin issues and attachment-related patterns that continue to affect present relationships.
She trained in psychology at the University of South Carolina and completed a master’s degree in Counseling Education with a focus on Marriage and Family Therapy. Her work blends several therapy approaches to look at how past relationships shape current feelings and behavior. Sessions focus on increasing emotional awareness and learning new ways to relate to oneself and others.
In individual sessions she helps people identify inner parts, strong feelings, and recurring relationship patterns. The process often involves noticing where reactivity or self-criticism shows up and trying different ways of responding. Practical tools for emotional regulation and clearer communication are part of the work.
With relationship or family concerns the aim is to surface underlying needs and improve interactions. She uses techniques that address attachment needs and emotional bonding as well as steps to change unhelpful patterns. This can include short-term goal work alongside deeper exploration of family of origin influences.
Abreia frames therapy as a collaborative process. People looking to address long-standing relationship habits or to understand how their upbringing still affects them now may find her approach straightforward and focused on real-life change.
How Abreia’s approaches translate to online work
Abreia uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify core emotions and improve emotional connection in relationships. EFT focuses on how emotions drive interactions and helps people move toward clearer expression and safer emotional exchanges.She also draws on Internal Family Systems to help individuals recognize and speak with different inner parts. IFS supports understanding conflicting self-states, reducing self-criticism, and building internal cooperation for better decision making.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Abreia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is based on what the client wants to change, how they respond to different exercises, and practical needs like session length or focus.
