About Sharie

Sharie Gilner is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She works from the belief that each person knows their own story and already has strengths to build on. Sharie aims to support and empower clients as they take steps toward a more fulfilling life.

She draws on approaches such as client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to keep sessions practical and focused. That means listening first, then helping people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors. Motivational interviewing is used when people want to find internal reasons to change and stay motivated.

Sharie has six years of professional experience in Mississippi and has supported people dealing with issues like postpartum depression, post-traumatic stress, body image concerns, and social anxiety. She also helps with communication problems, guilt and shame, and navigating major life changes.

In the room she aims to create a straightforward, respectful atmosphere. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals, small steps, and skills you can use between meetings. She encourages people to try concrete strategies and reflect on what works for them.

People often come seeking relief from overwhelming feelings and better daily coping. Sharie partners with each person to identify priorities, practice new ways of handling problems, and track progress over time.

Approaches that guide online work and support

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building on each person's strengths. The therapist follows the client's lead, offers reflection, and helps people name goals they want to reach.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with practical alternatives. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and patterns that keep problems going.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting based on what feels useful.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. The focus is on practical strategies, clearer communication, and steady progress you can use between sessions.
