Stuart Worley, LPC

Stuart Worley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, relationship and communication problems, trauma and abuse, ADHD, grief, and related difficulties. Stuart also notes experience with LGBT issues, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.

Her background includes work with people affected by adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, autism and Asperger Syndrome, caregiver stress, codependency, and control or impulsivity struggles. She lists approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing.

Stuart’s style is straightforward and nonjudgmental. She acknowledges that patterns that once helped can become unhelpful later. In sessions she talks through those patterns and helps people try different responses that better fit their current goals.

She blends attachment-focused work with DBT skills and brief, goal-focused methods. Conversations are shaped around practical steps - communication skills, emotional regulation techniques, and ways to manage daily stressors. Motivational interviewing can be used to clarify what a person wants to change.

Stuart explains interventions in plain terms and works with clients to set short-term goals and next steps. She encourages gradual practice of new skills between sessions. People who want a direct, action-oriented approach to parenting stress, family conflict, or personal distress may find this style helpful.
