Kiana Thomas, LPC

Kiana Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with five years of clinical experience. She sees adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship tensions, trauma, and anger. Sessions are straightforward and focused on practical steps to reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning.

She earned a bachelor’s degree in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina and a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from South University. Her background includes work in both private practice and public agencies, which she draws on when helping people with real-life problems.

Her work often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts influence emotions and behavior. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, achievable goals and build on what already works for a person. These methods are used in plain language and with concrete exercises that link to day-to-day life.

Kiana pays attention to relationship patterns and attachment concerns when those come up. She addresses issues like parenting stress, intimacy difficulties, grief after separation, and struggles with addiction or mood disorders. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Expect sessions that identify specific triggers, try small behavior changes, and practice new responses. She encourages measurable steps you can take between sessions, such as short behavioral experiments, journaling prompts, and mindful awareness practices to reduce anger and reactivity.
