Founded by Stephen "Eddie" Talley, Upstate Carolina Counseling Associates (UCCA) is more than just a counseling practice. It's a return to the heart of healing.

​

With the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in sight, Easley is just a twenty-minute drive from midtown Greenville or the city of Clemson. Being as such, we are dedicated to the timeless values of small-town care while providing modern therapeutic practices.  

 

Your need is our vision. We recognize the world can sometimes feel overwhelming and impersonal. And because that’s just the way things are, within our walls is a retreat for you to immerse yourself in therapy, to discover healing comfortably and productively. 

 

Your voice is our mission. We know the healthcare system can feel distant and impersonal. We also know that you deserve much better.  So, although we are here to provide a healthcare service, we're also here to understand you, to connect with you, and to walk alongside you. That's because we believe that counseling is about putting you at the center of your journey.

 

Your growth is our approach.  At UCCA you will experience our commitment to you in an environment where you feel empowered and valued. By fostering a genuine connection, we aim to ensure your growth and transformation are always at the fore of our time together.

 

Your well-being is our promise.  Every moment you spend with us is designed with understanding, compassion, and progress in mind.  Our diverse team, rooted in our small town philosophy, is dedicated to crafting personalized counseling experiences where you leave feeling not just better, but truly understood and valued.

 

Your story is our dedication. Life is a wild mix of stories—and we love stories! In other words, your narrative is unique and cherished. And with that said, we're not just therapists, we're listeners, supporters, and partners in your journey. As you move along in your therapy, our goal is to ensure that you always feel the strength of your own worth and potential.

 

Your journey awaits.   At UCCA, you will not be entering a clinical setting—instead, you will be joining a community of small-town practitioners who believe our clients' well-being is the primary consideration in everything we do

 

From Eddie Talley then, and the entire team, we look forward to having you join us for a counseling experience unlike any other.
