Getting to know Edna Hickson

Hi there, I'm Edna! I am a Licensed Social Worker in South Carolina with 10 years of experience as a therapist. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Albany State University and a Master of Social Work from Savannah State University. I specialize in helping individuals navigate challenges related to relationships, emotional regulation, and personal growth. My approach is client-centered and tailored to support your unique goals, empowering you to build resilience and achieve meaningful change. My approach My approach is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused Therapy. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey where each session serves as a step toward resilience, healing, and meaningful growth. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to explore their thoughts, feelings, and challenges. My focus I primarily work with adolescents and adults navigating challenges related to anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. My focus includes helping clients manage mood disorders, process significant life transitions, and address issues stemming from past abuse or neglect. I am especially comfortable treating conditions such as bipolar disorder, PTSD, and anxiety disorders, using a strengths-based and person-centered approach to support their journey toward healing and resilience. My communication style My communication style is warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental, creating a safe and supportive space for clients to share openly. I prioritize active listening and collaboration, ensuring clients feel heard and valued in every session. Working with me often feels like having a compassionate ally who helps you navigate challenges at your own pace while gently encouraging growth and self-discovery.
