Welcome to Mind Up Counseling – Therapy for the Mind, Body, and Soul

At Mind Up Counseling, healing starts from within, where mind, body, and soul align to help you live a more peaceful and fulfilling life. I’m Soula Zaharopoulos, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LISW-CP) in SC with over 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate stress, life transitions, caregiving, grief, and emotional imbalances.

Whether you’re managing multiple roles, facing burnout, or adjusting to changes like divorce, loss, or aging, I offer a compassionate, personalized approach to help you restore clarity, resilience, and well-being.

A Holistic Counseling Approach Rooted in Tradition and Science

Inspired by my Greek heritage, where psyche (ψυχή) means both “soul” and the core of psychology, I take a holistic approach to therapy that honors the connection between mind, body, and soul. This integrative method helps clients explore emotional patterns, reconnect with purpose, and feel more grounded and empowered.

My Clinical Experience

Over the years, I’ve supported individuals and families in a variety of settings:

  • State Psychiatric Hospital – Crisis intervention and long-term care

  • Community Mental Health Center – Assessment, triage, and connection to services

  • Private Practice – Ongoing, personalized support for anxiety, depression, and transitions

  • Hospice Care – Emotional support for grief, caregiving, and end-of-life challenges

These experiences shaped the compassionate and client-centered care I offer today.

Therapeutic Approach

I draw from evidence-based practices, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – To shift unhelpful thought patterns

  • Mindfulness – To stay present and reduce stress and anxiety

  • Strength-Based Therapy – To build resilience through your innate capacities

  • Client-Centered Therapy – To tailor your care to your pace, goals, and values

Together, we’ll work in a safe, supportive environment to help you make meaningful progress toward your emotional and mental health goals.

Who I Help

I specialize in supporting:

  • Individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, or emotional imbalances

  • Adults navigating life transitions (e.g., divorce, career change, aging)

  • Caregivers feeling overwhelmed or emotionally drained

  • Professionals coping with burnout and work-life imbalance

  • People grieving a loss or facing end-of-life concerns

  • Older adults and their families managing the challenges of aging

On a Personal Note

When I’m not working, I spend time with my family and our sweet Yorkiepoo. I recharge through walking, yoga, and group fitness classes—all part of the mind-body-soul connection I promote in therapy.
