Heather Phelps is a licensed social worker practicing in South Carolina with six years of clinical experience. She has worked as a clinic-based therapist and as a clinic director, combining hands-on clinical care with program development and leadership. Her practice emphasizes mindfulness, movement, problem-solving, communication, social connection, coping, and relaxation skills, and she has created a Mindful Parenting Program to support caregivers and families.

Heather holds the LISW-CP credential, a Licensed Independent Social Worker with a clinical practice designation, and she is certified in Foundations of Meditation and as a Trauma-Informed Yoga Instructor. She draws on this training when teaching wellness programming for children and adults, helping clients build practical skills that fit into everyday life.

She views the decision to begin therapy as an important step and brings respect and steady support to each client’s growth and recovery journey.
