Beauty for Ashes Counseling provides TRAUMA-INFORMED services that incorporate traditional counseling, expressive arts and play therapy to adults, children, & families seeking relief from anxiety, depression, trauma, dissociation and PTSD. Through its success, Beauty for Ashes Counseling, LLC has grown from a single therapist to over 10 therapists, and two locations spanning 150 miles apart. It is the only the only dedicated art and play therapy practice in the upstate and Sumter County with both board-certified art therapists and registered play therapists.

From the beginning, the vision of therapist and founder Cheryl Childers has been to offer premier trauma-informed creative arts-based therapy. The company grew beyond traditional counseling and therapy models by incorporating expressive arts therapies, play therapy with traditional trauma-informed treatment, expanding to a clinician education program.

“Beauty for Ashes Counseling’s success has been directly related to continually following to our vision,” states owner Childers. “Our staff is committed to providing solace, emotional wellness, and healing to people in pain. Our ultimate goal is to help our clients find and become their most authentic self. The best way to do that is through creativity, expression and play.”

As the first Art and Play Therapy Centered Practice in the Upstate and Sumter County, Beauty for Ashes Counseling will soon become Art and Play Therapy Studios to better focus its mission to be at the forefront of trauma-informed expressive and creative arts therapy treatment.

“Through Art and Play Therapy Studios, clients and their families will develop skills for lasting wellness. Everyday our organization is driven by why we do what we do: to inspire the potential of the human spirit knowing that all people have the capacity to be well and thrive. As we enter our second decade, we remain inspired and excited by our vision.”
