More about Sheila

  • 22 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hello,

I'm Sheila, a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor (LPC, NCC), and I have been in practice for over 18 years. I love what I do, which is listening, helping and guiding people as they learn the tools to achieve their therapeutic goals. I've worked with individuals, children/adolescents, families, and couples with such issues as grief/loss, anger management, relationship/family conflict, career challenges, depression, anxiety, and communication issues.

I've been fortunate to work with a variety of different people of all ages, cultures and socio-economic statuses and those sessions have occurred in a variety of settings--- from private offices to schools to military bases to court to therapy in the home. This range of experience has taught me that there is no "one size, fits all" when it comes to therapy. Just as you are a unique individual, your therapy must be as well.

I believe in creating a trusted partnership with my clients, and employ a warmly diplomatic but direct style of communication. I draw from various evidence-based theories and modalities such as cognitive-behavioral, humanistic and family systems; together we will discover what is most helpful for you.

I look forward to partnering with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Sheila is amazing! Not only does she have a really personable “bed side” manner, but she is able to identify what’s really going on and not just what you might arm chair diagnose yourself as. I always look forward to my session and know that I’ve made a huge amount of progress which wouldn’t have been possible on my own or with the therapist options I have available to me (currently living in a foreign country with little understanding of mental health issues). Can’t recommend her enough!!

M.E.·Sep 2019

Shiela is very knowledgeable and listens to everything said.

J.O.·May 2019

Sheila is a fantastic counselor! Kind and caring, she has all the hallmarks of what you’d want and also goes above and beyond to make sure you feel supported. Can’t recommend her enough!!!

M.E.·Mar 2019

Sheila and I have only had two sessions but I can already tell that I gonna love her! She has a calming effect on me and I feel refreshed after our sessions.

L.O.·Feb 2019

She's the best help that I have found and would recommend her to anyone
