Blue Cross Covered Anxiety and Depression Therapy North Charleston

If you’ve been feeling stuck in a cycle of worry, low energy, or emotional exhaustion, I want you to know, you’re not alone. Anxiety and depression can show up in different ways for different people. Whether it’s a racing mind that won’t slow down or a quiet heaviness that lingers all day, I’m here to support you. I provide therapy for anxiety and depression in North Charleston, and I accept many Blue Cross insurance plans to make care more accessible.

A Bit About Me

I’m Holly Hansen, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, LPCS, LAC) and founder of Cognizant Counseling Center. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, and the overwhelm that often comes with life transitions. My style is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel more grounded and empowered. I integrate CBT, ACT, and IFS to create a therapeutic experience that supports lasting change.

When Anxiety and Depression Overlap

Maybe you’ve noticed you’re always on edge, or maybe you’re simply tired all the time and unsure why. Anxiety can cause rapid thoughts, trouble sleeping, and physical symptoms like tightness in the chest. Depression may show up as fatigue, irritability, or a sense of disconnection. And often, these experiences overlap. Many clients in North Charleston come to me looking for help managing both, and if you have Blue Cross insurance, you likely have coverage for this kind of support.

What Our Work Together Looks Like

Therapy begins with understanding what you’ve been going through, without judgment or pressure. We’ll take our time to explore your experiences and uncover the patterns holding you back. My approach draws on evidence-based practices like:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to shift negative thought patterns
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to build emotional flexibility
• Internal Family Systems (IFS) to explore and heal deeper emotional parts
  You’ll gain practical tools to manage symptoms, but also deeper insight into what drives them.

What Therapy Can Offer

Healing from anxiety and depression isn’t just about symptom relief, it’s about rediscovering your capacity to feel calm, present, and connected. My clients often share that they:

• Feel less overwhelmed in their day-to-day life
• Experience better sleep and more clarity
• Build healthier relationships with themselves and others
• Learn how to break the cycle of shame and self-criticism
• Develop strategies to manage stress without shutting down
  

Serving the North Charleston community, I’m committed to making therapy as accessible as possible. That’s why I work with most Blue Cross plans and offer both in-person and online sessions.
