About Me
Brad Hawkins, M.S., LPC
Once upon a time, I had a very bad day that lasted for about ten years. Now I spend my time trying to help others through their bad days.
The Scientist Practitioner
I was trained using the Scientist-Practitioner Model. The scientist-practitioner model is based on the belief that the best psychological practice is rooted in the scientific method, and that scientific inquiry is necessary to advance the field of psychology.

Experience
During graduate school, I interned at a private practice in Augusta, GA as well as the PTSD Clinic at the Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center. Following graduate school, I worked as a contractor conducting psychological evaluations for the Georgia Department of Family and Children’s Services. Since 2015, I have been working in private practice as a therapist in Aiken, SC.
As a younger man, I worked as a Systems Administrator for a group of live entertainment venues in Myrtle Beach. Later, I worked as a Data Analyst for the Department of Defense at Fort Gordon, GA before returning to school to earn my Master’s Degree in Clinical and Counseling Psychology.
