Therapists in Columbia, SC

I am an African American male, retired military with 24 service years. I counsel for a variety of emotional and mental disorders that include ADHD, Adjustment, Anxiety, Depression, High Functioning Autism, Grief, PTSD, and Trauma. I counsel children, adolescents, adults, families, Law Enforcement and Military, LGBTQI+ Affirming, marriage, and pre-marital. I have previous experience as a college psychology professor, juvenile correctional officer, residential counselor, substitute teacher, and special education community liaison.

My counseling style is to connect a client’s goals and hopeful outcomes with the realities of what brought them to counseling and to partner with them to see current breakthroughs as well and a healthy and productive future. I'm excited to work with multi-cultural clients in individual counseling sessions on social-emotional issues, grief and loss, sudden life changes, mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, career counseling, and marriage/family counseling. My hope is that with my support a client will hopefully change their current reality in a space where it’s okay to not be okay.

Do you often find yourself feeling overcome by feelings of despair and helplessness? Do you struggle to accept yourself as you are and to cope with the anxiety of existing? You are not alone. Many clients come to me when they are at the end of their rope and merely hanging on by a thread. People often want to learn to accept themselves as they are, to feel worthy, and ultimately, to be able to improve their relationships with others. Similarly, couples often seek therapy in order to learn to communicate effectively, to deal with conflict, to strengthen their bonds, and to prepare for marriage or children.

I have many years of successful experience helping individuals and couples understand and break free from their recurring cycles of emotional pain and frustration. I work to dissolve the thoughts and behaviors that are causing you distress, while providing practical tools that empower you to become the person you aspire to be. I strive to provide a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel safe talking about those things that are the most difficult to discuss.

Hello! My name is Lina. I am a mom to 3 teens and a marriage veteran of 19 yrs from Texas. I have lived in South Carolina for 3 years where I have been pursuing a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with a specialization in systemic sex therapy. What is sex therapy? It is purely talk therapy. Most therapists address your mental health issues. Sex therapists address your mental health issues when they’re impacting, and being impacted by, your sexual functioning and relationships.

Human beings are not born with a manual in their hands about how to face life; we just do the best we can. We try, we have questions, we look for answers, for change. But we often feel frustrated, angry, sad, and often, don’t know why? We search for happiness, but often don’t know where to find it. This is not an easy road, but I believe that we are resilient and capable of finding answers.

I know that for many people the hardest part of therapy is picking up the phone to ask for help, I want to thank you for taking that first step. Choosing the right person to help is a very individual process, and time after time the best predictor of successful counseling or therapy has been shown to be the quality of the relationship between the therapist and the client. If you feel confident that my training, approach to therapy, and personality are the right match for you, we will discuss our options regarding treatment.
