Felicia McGhee, LPC

Felicia McGhee is a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with 20 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD, grief, and issues related to LGBT identity. She offers a calm, practical approach and aims to help people build skills they can use day to day.

Her style is collaborative and client-centered. Sessions often involve talking through current problems, learning concrete coping skills, and practicing new ways of thinking. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside mindfulness and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to reduce distress and increase emotional regulation.

Felicia has a long history working with young people involved with the juvenile justice system and with clients served through state agencies. Over the last seven years she broadened her work through contracted roles and now supports adults across different life stages and challenges. That background informs her focus on practical strategies and real-world solutions.

In sessions she mixes goal-focused work with space to process difficult experiences like trauma, grief, or major life changes. She also integrates motivational interviewing when people want help finding direction in career or life choices. Her aim is to help clients notice patterns, try small changes, and track what works.

Before a first meeting she invites people to share helpful information about themselves. That lets sessions start focused and makes it easier to set realistic steps toward better coping and clearer goals.

How different approaches work online

Felicia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that increase distress, then practices concrete tools to change them. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when clients want step-by-step strategies to try between sessions.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and the client's own goals. That approach helps people feel heard and gradually build the confidence to make changes at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and new challenges appear.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and daily life.
