About Abreia

Abreia Epps is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside relationship and personal well-being. She aims to make sessions clear and practical so parents and partners can speak about stress, intimacy, and communication without feeling judged.

Abreia keeps language simple and centers on helping people notice emotions and change patterns that get in the way of connection. She trained in psychology at the University of South Carolina and completed a master’s degree in Counseling Education with a focus on Marriage and Family Therapy.

Background and approach

Abreia has worked in the field since 2019 and brings six years of clinical experience to her work. She meets people where they are and emphasizes emotional understanding and realistic steps forward. Her room is a place to look at how past experiences shape current relationships.

Abreia uses tools that help identify needs, reduce reactivity, and improve communication. She also helps clients notice inner parts and the different ways people protect themselves emotionally. Typical topics include stress, anxiety, depression, parenting, intimacy, trauma and abuse, and issues related to gender and sexual identity.

She also addresses concerns such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, blended family challenges, infidelity, and jealousy. Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented while staying attentive to feelings. Sessions are offered in English and take place with a focus on practical changes at home and in relationships.

Abreia works from South Carolina and uses approaches meant to help families and partners build stronger, healthier connections.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions for families and relationships

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current connections. It helps people see repeating patterns in relationships and build safer, more supported ways of relating. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on present-moment emotions in couples and close relationships. It helps partners identify what they feel and ask for what they need in clearer ways.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, what feels helpful, and how each method might fit their situation. Together they decide which ideas to try first and adjust the plan based on progress and preference.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These formats allow parents and partners to connect from home or wherever is convenient. The variety of options can make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing family schedules and other commitments.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
