Michelle Corey Colson, MA, MA, LPCA

My counseling and coaching practice focuses on ADHD, Autism (Level 1), trauma, anxiety, grief, depression, mood disorders, premarital/marital counseling, couples counseling, and Christian Counseling. Moreover, I specialize in child/adolescent therapy (ages 12+) and life transitions in adulthood. Additionally, I offer comprehensive ADHD assessments, testing, and evaluations for teens, college students, and adults in our Myrtle Beach office. These evaluations include structured clinical interviews, validated ADHD rating scales, executive functioning and attention assessments, and written diagnostic reports to support IEP/504 plans, academic accommodations, and workplace documentation when appropriate.

Hi, I’m Michelle. I am a Psychotherapist, Christian Counselor, and Life Coach, and the founder of Beach Counseling & Wellness Group of SC, located near Market Common in Myrtle Beach. BCWG was intentionally created as a boutique mental health practice serving a limited number of clients who value depth, continuity, and a therapeutic relationship that is steady—not rushed or transactional.

My work is clinically grounded, thoughtfully structured, and—when desired—integrates faith as a source of strength, meaning, and resilience. My therapeutic foundation is person-centered (Rogerian), informed by psychodynamic theory, including Eriksonian and Adlerian perspectives. Depending on each client’s needs, I integrate additional evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, Somatic approaches, and Christian counseling upon request.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach here. Each treatment plan is individualized, structured, and responsive to the unique needs of the person sitting in front of me.

As someone who lives with ADHD and brings over 25 years of experience in corporate America, I understand firsthand how high-demand, overstimulated environments affect the mind, body, and spirit. This lived perspective informs my holistic and integrative approach to care.

Over time, I have come to believe that meaningful therapeutic work requires more than good intentions or technical skill alone. It requires presence, discernment, and the freedom to practice in a way that honors both the client and the clinician.

I view this work as both a profession and a calling. That perspective shapes how I practice—with intention rather than urgency, depth rather than volume, and respect for the trust clients place in the therapeutic relationship. I intentionally maintain a limited caseload so that care can remain personal, thoughtful, and responsive, rather than rushed.

Furthermore, my approach is grounded in evidence-based psychotherapy and informed by years of education, advanced training, and ongoing study. For clients who desire it, faith-informed care may be integrated in a respectful and clinically appropriate way. Faith integration is always optional and guided by the client’s values and goals.

I believe people heal best when they feel seen, understood, and supported—not managed or processed. This belief has led me to build a boutique, concierge-style practice that prioritizes continuity of care, accessibility when clinically appropriate, and a strong therapeutic alliance.

I do not strive to be everything to everyone. Instead, I seek to offer careful, ethical, and relational care to those who are looking for a therapeutic experience that values depth, integrity, and intentionality.

This is the work I feel called to do, and the way I feel called to do it.

If this approach resonates with you, I invite you to reach out to explore whether working together may be a good fit.
