ABOUT ME
Greetings, my name is Dr. Ashaad Hipps, and I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker-CP in South Carolina. I have a masters degree from the University of Central Florida and a doctoral degree from the University of Kentucky. With more than a decade of experience in the mental health field, I offer a wide range of services. I utilize my mental health training to make an impact on organizations and individuals.
Before beginning treatment, I focus on building genuine rapport. By taking time to listen, connect, and create a secure space, where you can feel seen, heard, and safe to share your thoughts and feelings. I believe in compassion, non-judgment, and empowerment. I ensure a steady presence that supports growth, healing, and the belief that change is possible. I believe in creating a space where you feel safe to be vulnerable, challenged to grow, and affirmed in your worth.
I am thankful for the opportunity to work with you and excited about the change we will make together!
Why Me?
What makes me a great fit for my clients? It is my approach to meeting you exactly where you are in your journey. I understand that each person’s path is unique, and I’m here to walk alongside you as a partner. In our work together, you are in the driver’s seat, and I’m here to support, guide, and offer tools that are tailored to your specific needs and goals.
Therapy is a collaboration and it’s about building a safe, trusting space where we can work together to create lasting change. I’m committed to understanding you, respecting your pace, and being a resource to help you move forward in a way that feels authentic to you. We’re in this together, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
The Perfect Fit
If you're looking for a genuine, positive, and supportive environment, you've come to the right place. Struggling with self-esteem can make you doubt yourself, feel ashamed and insecure about yourself. The anxiety may cause you to feel fear, worry, or being overwhelmed by unknown or known situations. Breakups are difficult and may come with anger, confusion, or grief. All of these are treatable and things that I can assist you with. These are some of the concerns I will help you tackle.
This is a safe space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. The end goal of therapy is to bring you clarity, self-acceptance, and a sense of strength that once felt out of reach. Learning how to treat yourself with more compassion and less criticism will allow you to sit with your emotions and embrace your journey to healing. I am here to supply you with the tools you need to help feel less alone, more empowered, and more connected to yourself and to others. I'll assist you in navigating your challenges with compassion and provide what you need to move forward with confidence.
