About Marsha
Marsha Tunstall is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 25 years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma, sleep difficulties, parenting challenges, anger, and major life adjustments.
Background and approach
She also works with caregiver strain, chronic pain and illness, substance use concerns, forgiveness, life purpose, mood and panic disorders, smoking or vaping cessation, and women's issues. Marsha emphasizes that clients bring important knowledge and strengths to therapy and she partners with them to build on those assets.
Her approach centers on practical, evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. She aims to support people who want clearer coping tools, improved motivation, and increased confidence as they pursue meaningful change.
Marsha frames the decision to seek help as a courageous step and positions herself as a supportive collaborator in the process of working toward a more satisfying life.
Practical approaches for online healing and change
Marsha often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, mood concerns, panic, and sleep difficulties. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where a client's own priorities and strengths guide the work. These methods are aimed at producing tangible coping tools while honoring each person’s experience.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Marsha works with each person to determine which techniques best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts methods over time based on progress and feedback. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy stays practical and focused on meaningful change.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care despite geographic or time constraints, while allowing licensed professionals to deliver regular, structured support tailored to each client's situation.
