About Me

I’m Bernadette Scott, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina and founder of Spring of Grace Counseling. I’ve worked in various settings between community mental health and group practices. I have 4 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults.

Currently, I specialize in supporting adults who are overcoming career challenges and workplace stress — especially highly empathic individuals who tend to carry more than they let on.

You don’t have to manage everything alone. Here, healing doesn’t mean “getting it together” — it means letting yourself be met with care, presence, and grace.

My approach is grounded in evidenced-based practices like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and guided by the values of compassion, presence and emotional flexibility.

The word compassion comes from the Latin compati, which means “to suffer with.” This is at the heart of my work — to meet you where you’re at and collaborate with each other in the hopes of finding solutions.
