Hi, I’m Sarah Van Wyk!

Who I am and
Why I care

I’m Sarah Van Wyk, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC #8647) based in Greenville, SC. I started my private counseling practice to help women, college students, and anyone seeking support with eating disorders, anxiety, or life transitions.

I’ve worked in residential, partial hospitalization, and outpatient settings, giving me a broad perspective on mental health care. Today, I focus on offering individualized therapy in Greenville and throughout Upstate SC, combining compassion, directness, and evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s needs.

A trusted Greenville therapist for women

As a licensed professional counselor Greenville residents rely on, I believe the quality of the therapeutic relationship is key to growth. I use an integrative style, blending different approaches to match your needs. Whether you’re struggling with an eating disorder, anxiety, or trauma-related concerns, I’ll guide and encourage you toward becoming the best version of yourself.

My experience and approach to therapy

I’ve worked with children, adolescents, and adults in both inpatient and outpatient environments, supporting clients with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and trauma. As an eating disorder specialist SC clients trust, I understand how deeply these struggles impact self-worth and daily life. My laid-back but direct approach creates space for honesty while also challenging you to grow.

Building trust and lasting change

I believe therapy works best when built on safety, honesty, and mutual trust. Over time, I guide and encourage clients to apply skills outside the therapy room, using practical tools to manage emotions and strengthen resilience. As a trusted Greenville therapist, my goal is to help you gain confidence, self-compassion, and direction for lasting change.

Why work with me?

I bring experience, compassion, and a personalized style to every client I see.
