About Felicia
Felicia McGhee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and intimacy-related concerns.
Much of her work began with adolescents in the juvenile justice system and with people served through state agencies like the Department of Mental Health, Department of Social Services, and the South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Department. Over the last seven years she has taken on contracted work that widened her practice to include young adults, middle-aged adults, and older adults.
Her style is client-centered and collaborative. She uses practical techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness and motivational interviewing. She also draws on trauma-focused methods and solution-focused brief strategies when those fit the situation.
Sessions focus on building coping skills, clarifying goals, and practicing new ways of handling difficult moments. She offers grief counseling and career-related support when those issues are present. Clients are invited to share background information before the first meeting to make the first session more efficient.
Felicia’s experience includes work with issues such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, chronic illness and pain, codependency, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and communication problems. She lists family and parenting among the areas she supports and frames treatment around the client’s current goals and life context.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working at the client’s pace, allowing the person to set goals while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most. This approach is helpful for people who want a supportive, collaborative way to address family and parenting stress or relationship strain.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is skills-focused and problem-oriented. It looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle parenting challenges. CBT sessions often include exercises and homework to practice between meetings.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes focused skills for regulating intense emotions and improving communication. Short skills practice and steady behavioral tools can be useful for anger, impulsivity, and relationship conflicts.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans as progress or new needs appear. That helps shape a working plan that feels doable.

Therapists can guide how to use the time most effectively for skill practice, problem-solving, and planning next steps.
