Annah Bottomley, LMSW, Supervised by Valerie Lopez, LCSW- Supervisor

Hi, I’m Annah, a Licensed Master Social Worker in South Carolina and Texas. From a young age I found myself drawn to people’s stories. I’ve always been curious about what shapes us, the messy moments, the quiet thoughts, and the turning points that change everything. That curiosity has turned into a deep passion for helping others understand themselves with more compassion and clarity. I help clients explore the “why” behind their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so they can gain insight, acceptance, and the tools to move forward.

I take a holistic, collaborative approach using techniques from Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices. I also support clients in exploring the impact that physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health have on their well-being. My goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space for you to grow into the most grounded, resilient version of yourself.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work with a specialization in health/mental health from the University of South Carolina. Through this I gained experience working in schools, facilitating psycho-educational groups, providing individual therapy, family training, and play therapy.

In my free time I enjoy baking, going to the farmers market, reading, and playing games with my family.
