My name is Samantha McKenzie and I'm a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP). I specialize in treating OCD, eating disorders, and anxiety disorders. A lot of my clients also struggle with perfectionism, depression, and self-criticism. I help them identify their inner critic and separate themselves from the OCD and eating disorder. I also have a special interest in working with athletes and helping them navigate the unique challenges that they face in sport; on and off the field/court.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in South Carolina
Searching for therapists in South Carolina starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across urban and rural parts of the state, available therapists and areas of focus can vary. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.
Location and format also shape your search. You may prefer an office near Charleston, Columbia, or Greenville, or you may want virtual sessions that fit your schedule from elsewhere in South Carolina. It can also help to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can show how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus, so you can make a more informed choice.
Therapy in South Carolina can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans and helps you find South Carolina therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists, review bios, check your insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
