Summerville Women’s Mental Health Services is a Women’s Mental Health Center that provides Counseling, Therapy, and Clinical Supervision in South Carolina.

We provide multicultural mental health services for all women: cisgender, transgender, non-binary, and woman/feminine identified.  

We welcome and serve all ethnic, cultural, and racial communities. 

We help clients heal from anxiety, depression, dysphoria, and trauma/stressors, teaching them coping skills, self-esteem, and healthy thinking to promote their healing and improve their well-being.  

We specialize in integrative mental health (IMH), a holistic approach to treating mental health that combines conventional and non-conventional therapies.  

We are uniquely qualified and culturally competent to work with the veteran community, the Latino/Hispanic/LatinX community, and the LGBTQIA2S+ community. 

We are bilingual (English/Spanish), military veteran, and LGBTQIA2S+ with lived experience. 

We serve all of South Carolina with both in-office and telehealth appointments.

Xiomara A. Sosa

Hi, my name is Xiomara A. Sosa. I am the owner and Clinical Director of Summerville Women’s Mental Health Services.

I am a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor-Candidate. I am supervised by Dr. Latrice Love, a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor.

I am Latina, born and raised in the Bronx, New York City, NY.

I am a first-generation college graduate and a very proud daughter of immigrants from Puerto Rico (a territory of the US) and the Dominican Republic.

When I am not working with the people I serve inside and outside of my communities, you can find me working on my nonprofit organization, The X-Studio: A Mental Health Cooperative, or on my podcast, The X-Podcast: Real Conversations About Mental Health.

Education

I earned my Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology from Phoenix University and my Master of Science Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Forensic Counseling from Walden University, both CACREP-accredited universities.

I have been serving clients since 2012, working in case management and other capacities, including counseling/therapy. My work has been consistently serving women and all other underrepresented communities, including communities of color, the LGBTQIA2S+ community, and the veteran community. The bulk of my work has been in anxiety, depression, dysphoria, and trauma/stressor-related disorders, and other specialty areas and issues.

My specialization is women’s mental health, integrative mental health (IMH), and multicultural counseling/therapy. My foundation is in cultural competency and social change advocacy. I focus on combining evidence-based treatment with alternative therapies. My focal point is on treating the whole person, not just the symptoms of a particular illness or concern. That includes mental health, physical health, emotional well-being, interpersonal relationships, and spiritual needs. I help clients identify patterns in their lives that may contribute to their struggles and work on developing strategies for making healthier choices. I am also a 9/11 survivor and a proud United States Air Force and Army veteran. You can read my full bio on my website at www.swmhs.net
