Welcome

Change is a personal choice. At Fortitude CCSS, we believe everyone, at some point in our lives, can benefit from counseling and make positive changes. Not only can we all improve ourselves in some way(s), but life happens.  When the ups and downs of life happen, it can be very, very difficult to make sense of.  Life can throw challenges our way that can be overwhelming or harmful.  As a result, we can find ourselves at a loss on how to cope or move forward in a healthy, productive way.

People seek counseling for a variety of reasons.   Counseling can help you navigate through through the challenging times of life,  improve yourself, and/or work on the “stuff” all of us deal with.  Additionally, if you notice negative symptoms that are impacting any area of your life or you wish to learn more healthy and effective coping skills, counseling may benefit you.

You are worth it!  You are worth leading as healthy, productive, fulfilled, blessed and joyful a life as possible.  You are worth overcoming the wounds, pain, and upset you have endured.  If you want to learn to how to change and heal, and are willing to put in the consistent effort, counseling may benefit you.  The team at Fortitude CCSS is be honored to walk alongside every client we commit to serve in their healing journey.  However, we recognize we are neither able nor most appropriate to treat and serve every person who seeks our services.  Therefore, if we are not able nor the most appropriate fit to serve you, we will assist in finding local resources to best do so.

It is considered a calling, not a job.

David Ashley Williams, M.S. brought his counseling skills to Fortitude in January 2021. Ashley is neither stranger to the local community nor to counseling. Most local folks know Ashley from Christ Central Ministries in Walhalla, SC and the tremendous, holistic healing work he has done there. We are excited to have him join us part time to work with individuals, couples, and families seeking counseling and share his expertise with youth and persons battling substances or addiction. Ashley also specializes in premarital and marital counseling.

Kate Massey, M.S. joined Fortitude in September 2021.  Kate has a passion for counseling young adults, though she is talented working with people of all ages.  She has worked in substance abuse and addiction counseling, though she presently finds her areas of interest in trauma, mood and anxiety disorders.  Kate does an excellent job working with individuals, couples and families.
