About Sharie
Sharie Gilner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with six years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem challenges, depression, and help coping with life changes. Sharie also focuses on related concerns such as body image, communication problems, postpartum depression, and young adult issues.
Sharie approaches therapy from a client-centered perspective, meaning sessions begin with the person's goals and experiences. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want help finding their own reasons to change. Trauma-Focused Therapy supports work on past harms when those experiences affect daily life.
In session she treats the person as the expert on their life and highlights personal strengths. Conversations tend to be practical and goal-oriented, aiming to break down overwhelming problems into manageable steps. This can include skill practice, thought work, and planning for real-life situations.
Sharie has worked across six years helping adults navigate transitions like new jobs, returning to school, relationship shifts, and parenting challenges after childbirth. She draws from several approaches to match what a person needs at the time.
Sessions are offered in English and Sharie does not accept international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Approaches used in online sessions and practical fit
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to the person and building sessions around their goals. It helps when someone needs a space to sort priorities, clarify values, and decide next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress because it teaches doable skills for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods to try based on a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying CBT exercises for a few sessions, then shifting to Trauma-Focused work if past events are affecting daily life.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and keeping sessions consistent during life changes. Online options can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, meet during a lunch break, or avoid travel time.
