About
I empower and assist individuals and couples to navigate through life’s challenges—whether it's anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, or intimacy issues—creating a pathway towards greater fulfillment and well-being.
I am Tynese Vinson, and I bring over 20 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, and intimacy challenges. I create a compassionate and supportive space where clients can explore emotions, gain clarity, and develop coping strategies. My goal is to empower you to build resilience, foster healthier relationships, and move toward a more fulfilling life through tailored, holistic care.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Spaulding University and use my expertise in mental health and sex therapy to support healing. I focus on holistic care, offering practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and intimacy challenges, while promoting well-being and stronger connections.
I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space for exploration. I empathize with the struggles of anxiety, depression, and intimacy issues, and I encourage you to take the first step toward a healthier, more balanced life.

My mission is to provide ethical person-centered psychological treatment and ensure individuals feel supported and heard. Values include Nonjudgment, Autonomy, authenticity, Patience, kindness, Accountability, & integrity.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and nationally certified counselor (NCC). I received my Bachelor of Science in psychology from Charleston Southern University and my Master of Science in clinical mental health counseling, including a Graduate Certificate in Contemporary Theory in Mental Health Services, from Capella University. I have worked in the mental health field since 2013. I have worked with military/veterans, geriatrics, teens, children, LGBTQ community, PTSD, anxiety, grief, eating disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders, schizophrenia, substance abuse, first-time mothers, job development, and anger management.
I foster a client-centered CBT and DBT approach. I am certified in CBT for depression and suicide, DBT, CAMS-Care, ASIST, IPS, and anger management. I believe creating a safe and nonjudgmental space and building a genuine rapport is essential to aiding individuals in reaching personal goals. I base my services on the ACA Code of Ethics and state laws.
I look forward to working with all potential clients and sending a warm welcome to each of you.

As a queer, neurodivergent person myself, I am passionate about creating a warm, affirming space where people can feel genuinely understood, heal from trauma, and embrace their authentic selves.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC/S) in South Carolina and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina with experience working in community mental health, residential treatment, and private practice. I work with older teens and adults navigating PTSD, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the impact of systemic stressors.
My clinical approach is grounded in person-centered care, enhanced by EMDR and somatic interventions for mind-body healing. I view clients as experts of their own lives and work collaboratively toward their goals. I specialize in trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and neurodiversity-affirming care, prioritizing safety, authenticity, and trust.
It takes strength to seek support, and I respect that deeply. You do not have to navigate life's challenges alone, and when ready, I welcome the opportunity to begin that work together.

15 years ago, I struggled with anxiety & depression. For a long time, I lacked the courage to acknowledge that I needed help. My life was on "auto-pilot." My best friend saw what I was going through, and he recommended I speak with a therapist. I am forever grateful that I listened to him, because my experience in therapy changed my life forever.
Jeff Burgdorfer is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 10 years of experience helping individuals and families. He specializes in anxiety, depression, addiction, bipolar disorder, ADHD, grief/loss, and men's issues. Jeff has spent the last 10 years working in many of the major treatment settings, providing therapy to clients in hospitals, residential rehab programs, and outpatient facilities. Through this work, he has cultivated and strengthened a unique skill set to help clients, using a person-centered approach to therapy.
Jeff's person-centered approach to therapy is rooted in the therapeutic relationship. When you meet Jeff, the focus will be on building trust, discussing what brought you to therapy, and why you decided to start now. These are important to Jeff's approach because your life & experiences are unique. For therapy to be effective, it can’t be one-size-fits-all.
Jeff is often asked about what contributes to client success in therapy. Although Jeff has learned a lot in his 10+ years as a therapist, his answer to this question has never changed: what matters most is how clients feel when they leave his office. It is truly the relationship that heals. He would love to meet you and discuss how he may be able to help.

I use DBT and I utilize mindfulness because it helps the couples to communicate more effectively and be more aware of their body language as well as their tone of voice when speaking to one another.
I encourage practicing holding space for each other, allowing each person to say what is on their mind or to share their day without being interrupted by their partner, weekly business meetings where the couple can review their individual schedules as well as listing goals/household chores they would like to accomplish in that week, and daily check-ins to talk about the highlights and lowlight of their day.
I know couples are making progress when they are utilizing effective coping skills that they have identified in sessions.
Couples can practice holding weekly business meetings and daily checks-ins as well as utilizing a communication log if they are having difficulty communicating face to face.
I would encourage the couple to talk with one another about what they feel they are struggling with before the session so that they can maximize their time in the session.
Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
Being in a relationship with another person is not always easy. Communication problems, disagreements, differing values and issues around trust are struggles many couples face. Relationships are bound up in emotions, which makes navigating these issues even more complex.
Sometimes, we just don’t have the tools we need for addressing and resolving a given problem, such as jealousy, infidelity, broken trust, or financial stress. For a committed relationship to work and thrive, couples often need help learning new strategies and using new tools. This is where couples therapy comes in. At Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant, we can help you and your partner work through the issues in your relationship and create a happier, healthier future. Call us at 843-606-6223 to schedule a session with one of our experienced counselors.

Pleasant have the knowledge and expertise to help you address your relationship issues. These are just a few of the questions you may be grappling with and that we can help you resolve.
This is just a short list of challenges your couples therapist can help you address and overcome.
