Melvin DuBard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and career uncertainty.

He practices in a straightforward, respectful way. Sessions are client-centered and often solution-focused, with a cognitive behavioral foundation. That means he listens for what matters to the person and helps identify thought patterns that get in the way. Then he works with clients to try practical changes and steps toward clearer goals.

He is licensed as an LPC in South Carolina and Oregon and has around 15 years of experience in mental and behavioral health along with extensive work as an educator.
Expect a collaborative style that values respect and the Golden Rule. Melvin aims to help people spot unhelpful habits of thinking, build skills to manage symptoms, and move toward choices that better match their goals. He encourages clients to develop the tools to adjust on their own over time.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. This helps match needs to the style and approach Melvin offers.
