About Me

Hey! My name is Brad Peterson and I am the owner of Brad Peterson Counseling Services. I have been in the behavioral health field for the past 15 years, which has provided me with the opportunity to interact with many clients that have impacted my life as much as I hope I have impacted theirs. I knew that I wanted to be involved in a field that would be meaningful and lead to the improvement of the lives of others, which led me to the field of behavioral health and emotional wellness.

Mental illness and emotional dysregulation are issues that impact more people that most realize. It’s safe to say that almost everyone has dealt with this type of issue, even if it has been for a short period of time. Many of us are told by society that we shouldn’t seek help when these issues become overwhelming. This could not be further from the truth. The reality is that all of us need help at times, no matter how self-reliant we feel that we are. Seeking help is one of the healthiest and most beneficial things that we can do for ourselves. My goal is to help you through these difficult issues, whether they are persistent or temporary setbacks. I believe that by examining our thought patterns and processing the emotions that we have difficulty with, we can work through them and not only overcome them, but become more emotionally healthy overall in the process.

I graduated from the University of South Carolina in 2015 with my Master of Social Work degree and have since become a Licensed Independent Social Worker - Clinical Practice in South Carolina. Please feel free to reach out to me at (864) 900-0821 or by email at bepeterson2352@yahoo.com to have a brief consultation call or to schedule an initial appointment. The investment in yourself is well worth it.

“Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us all the best opportunity for growing into the healthiest of people.”
