Felicia McGhee, LPC

Felicia McGhee, LPC, offers counseling for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship problems, grief, parenting strain, and work or career concerns. She has two decades of experience and works in South Carolina. Her focus includes supporting people dealing with anger, intimacy issues, self-esteem challenges, and ADHD related struggles.

Felicia brings a client-centered, collaborative style to sessions. She listens first, then helps clients set practical goals. She explains skills plainly and practices techniques together in session so people can use them in daily life.

Her background includes long-term work with adolescents in the juvenile justice system and clients served through state mental health and social services programs. More recently she has provided contracted services across a wider age range, including young adults and older adults.

Felicia draws on several evidence-based approaches to tailor care. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills, and Mindfulness practices to increase present-moment awareness. Motivational Interviewing helps when people are weighing change.

Her practice also includes focus areas such as compassion fatigue, chronic illness and pain, domestic violence, communication problems, and life transitions. Before an initial session, she invites prospective clients to share any background information they think would be helpful.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s goals at the center. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients choose steps that feel realistic. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to change patterns that cause distress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on emotion regulation, coping with intense feelings, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Felicia will work together with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting based on what helps most.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow shorter or more flexible check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in the settings where they live and work, so techniques can be applied between sessions.
