About Felicia
Felicia McGhee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 20 years of experience in the counseling field.
Background and approach
She has spent a significant portion of her career supporting adolescents connected to the juvenile justice system and working with clients served by state agencies including the Department of Mental Health, Department of Social Services, and South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation.
Over the last seven years she broadened her practice through contracted work to support young adults, middle-aged adults, and older adults across a range of life stages. Her work is grounded in a client-centered, collaborative stance that emphasizes tailoring treatment to each person’s needs.
She draws from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused interventions, mindfulness-informed methods, motivational interviewing, grief counseling, and career counseling. Felicia focuses on concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, LGBT matters, parenting, ADHD, grief, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and many other life challenges.
Clients can expect an emphasis on building coping skills, developing insight, and working toward practical, meaningful change. She invites prospective clients to share relevant information before the first appointment to make sessions as focused and useful as possible.
Approach-Focused Online Care and Practical Strategies
Felicia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques that teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help with intense emotions and relationship difficulties. In sessions she often blends client-centered principles to ensure the work reflects each person’s values and goals and to keep the process collaborative and respectful.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and she works together with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative decision making guides how sessions are structured and which skills are prioritized as therapy progresses.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to continue care when in-person visits are difficult. These formats support flexible scheduling, ongoing skill practice between sessions, and multiple ways to communicate so clients can engage in the way that feels most workable for them.
