Connect with LGBTQIA+ therapists in Columbia, SC

I provide individual therapy to adults 18 years of age and older, creating a space where you can explore challenges and work toward meaningful change.

Mental health is just as important as physical health. Our mind, body, and soul all work together to create who we are. It is important that we work to get each of these aspects of our lives healthy. My therapy approach is eclectic style. I truly believe that each individual has unique needs that I want to ensure I meet.

I specialize in trauma, clinical Christian counseling, and motivational therapy. With a holistic approach, I integrate evidence-based practices and spiritual principles to help clients achieve emotional healing and personal growth.

My pronouns are (she/her). I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from East Carolina University in Greenville, NC in 2012. I earned a master’s degree in Social Work from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio in 2019. I am licensed to practice in the states of NC, SC and VA.

Every person is worthy of success, happiness, and wellness. My practice runs on three core beliefs: growth, resilience, and empowerment. Together, we can work on changing dysfunctional habits, reframing beliefs about yourself and the world, and increasing your confidence! All things are possible, but you don't need to accomplish it alone!

You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain your existence—where your pain is honored, your joy is celebrated, and your healing is prioritized. I support Black women navigating trauma, anxiety, burnout, and identity shifts with a culturally affirming, trauma-informed approach that centers your truth and restores your power.

I believe the most important thing I can offer as a counselor is this: genuine care. A mentor once told me, “Nobody cares what you know until they know that you care,” and that has stayed with me throughout my career. It shapes how I show up in every session, with authenticity, presence, and respect for your experience.

Most of the individuals who seek the help of a therapist have tried everything they know how to do, but it just isn't working for them. It is the task of an effective therapist to listen to your concerns and develop ways to assist you in learning better ways of dealing with problems that have bothered you currently and in the past. We can do that.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Maine and South Carolina. I hope to provide you with a space where you can share your thoughts and feelings freely and without judgment, using Cognitive Behavior Therapy with a focus on helping you feel better.

I'm an African American psychotherapist, wife, and mother of two. Overcoming early motherhood at 16 taught me resilience and balance. I provide therapy to individuals of all ages and races, addressing everyday challenges women face and the unique struggles of children and men.

I help individuals navigate life's challenges with clarity and confidence. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Adlerian therapy, and Person-Centered therapy to create a supportive space where clients can explore their strengths and build self-esteem.

I seek to work with clients who are looking to grow and heal. I work best with people who are willing to look at their pain and grow. I believe in the resilience of the human spirit but we have to uncover some of our layers to become our true selves.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland and a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina and Georgia. In our therapy together, we can focus on relationship stressors, past trauma, women's health, identity conflicts, self-esteem, and vocational stress, and I prioritize the topics you choose. I look forward to meeting you.

Being overwhelmed and stuck can make life feel impossible. You are far from alone. The majority of people struggle; we just don't get many opportunities to genuinely talk about our issues. My goal as a therapist is to help you feel understood, connected, and equipped to face challenges with a sense of confidence and curiosity.

My passion as a therapist is helping individuals step into the best version of themselves. "Therapy isn't about changing who you are, it's about unlocking the best in you that's already there."

I work with people suffering from anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, OCD, trauma, PTSD, domestic violence, complicated grief, and relationship issues. I also support the LGBTQ+ population around sexual identity, relationships, and coming out. Listening in a caring and empathetic manner helps me develop trusting relationships.

I specialize in working with young adults navigating trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and the everyday chaos of just being human.

My specializations include anxiety, depression, human sexuality, LGBTQIA+ issues, and trauma.

I believe therapy is a safe space where everyone can explore skills that are beneficial in life. I am confident I can assist you on your life journey.

I provide affirming care for the LGBTQIA+ community and create therapy that feels safe, collaborative, and genuine.

We have instant access to people around the world, and yet many feel isolated, alone, and disconnected. Connection starts when someone is willing to listen. Everyone’s story is unique; the counselor’s role is to listen and to partner with clients to help them achieve their unique goals, heal from past hurts, and realize their truest selves.

Welcome. This is a space where your thoughts, feelings and experiences are met with understanding and judgment. Therapy isn’t about “fixing you” it’s about exploring your story, uncovering your strengths and finding new ways to navigate life’s challenges.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 11 years of experience. I’m licensed in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. My experience began in a dual-diagnosis hospital with adolescents facing chronic illness and mental health challenges. "Social work chose me as a way to live out my purpose of helping others find hope and healing".

My approach to therapy is client-centered, strengths-based, and solution-focused.

Therapy begins with a conversation. I bring clinical expertise; you bring expertise in your own life. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way, build on your strengths, and create meaningful change. If that sounds like the kind of partnership you’re looking for, let’s begin.
