About Kiana

Kiana Thomas is a licensed professional counselor who helps people sort through relationship strain and everyday stress. She works with clients who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Kiana speaks English and practices in South Carolina as an LPC with five years of experience.

She uses straightforward, goal-focused methods in sessions. Kiana often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify practical steps that move a person toward the life they want.

Kiana trained at the University of South Carolina for her bachelor’s degree in experimental psychology and earned a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from South University. Her background includes work in both independent practice and public agencies, which gives her experience with a range of concerns and settings.

In the room she aims to create a calm, welcoming atmosphere where people can talk through what feels hard. Sessions typically focus on clear goals, coping skills, and small changes that add up over time. She supports people dealing with relationships, parenting stress, career strain, and mood or attention challenges.

Clients often leave with specific strategies to try between sessions and a plan for next steps. Kiana emphasizes collaboration, so treatment choices reflect each person’s needs and pace.

How Kiana’s approaches work in online therapy

Kiana commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thought that make feelings worse and then test new ways of thinking and acting. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows in on small, concrete steps that move a person toward clear goals and relief.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kiana works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit an individual’s needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in about what’s working and adjusts plans so sessions stay useful and practical.

Session formats are not specified in her biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, permit shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can also focus on skill-building, coping strategies, and relationship communication exercises in remote sessions, helping clients apply changes between meetings.
