About Abreia
Abreia Epps is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with six years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, intimacy and self-esteem difficulties. Abreia also supports clients navigating identity and LGBT issues and a range of relational challenges such as infidelity, jealousy, commitment worries, and blended family problems.
She trained in counseling education with a focus on marriage and family therapy after studying psychology at the University of South Carolina. Her sessions typically focus on helping clients notice and name hard emotions. She uses that awareness to find clearer ways of communicating and relating to others.
Abreia draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Internal Family Systems in her work. That means she pays attention to emotional experience, attachment patterns, and the different parts of a person that show up during stress. In one session she might help a client track a reactive feeling, and in another she might map how family history shapes current relationships.
In individual meetings the focus is often on identifying underlying needs, reducing self-criticism, and building emotional regulation skills. She also uses solution-focused tools to set practical steps when clients want clearer short-term goals.
Her approach aims to help people change recurring patterns, improve how they connect with others, and develop safer ways of expressing emotions.
How her approaches translate to online work
Abreia uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help clients notice, name, and make sense of strong feelings that drive relationship patterns and emotional reactivity. EFT can be useful for people wanting clearer emotional communication or help with attachment-related difficulties.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns of closeness and distance. That work often focuses on identifying recurring interaction cycles and building different ways of connecting. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set short-term, practical steps when clients want concrete changes to try between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Abreia will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative conversation helps shape session pacing and what to practice between meetings.

Many people find it helpful to try a session and then adjust frequency or focus based on how the approaches feel in practice.
