About Schiarlene
Schiarlene Williams is a counsellor with seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety and depression. Schiarlene aims to make it easier for someone to take that first step toward feeling better.
She creates a warm, non‑judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. Sessions are intended to let thoughts and feelings be heard and understood. Schiarlene listens closely and helps clients name what is happening for them.
How Schiarlene works
Her work addresses relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with anger, self‑esteem, control issues and family problems. Additional focus areas include parenting stress, domestic violence, sexual assault and attachment issues.
Schiarlene uses a range of practical approaches that match the needs of each person. These include client‑centred work that emphasises understanding, cognitive tools to reframe unhelpful thoughts, and emotionally focused methods to address close relationships. She sometimes uses hypnotherapy where it fits a person’s goals.
Appointments are offered in English and international clients can be supported. Schiarlene works to help people set clear goals and move toward manageable changes. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Schiarlene uses attachment‑based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and can reduce repeated hurtful patterns.She also draws on client‑centred therapy which focuses on understanding a person’s experience without judgement. That approach helps people gain clarity and feel heard as they decide what changes to make.
Finally, cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. CBT is practical and often suits people wanting tools to manage anxiety, low mood or stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Schiarlene will discuss options at the start and adapt methods to each person’s needs, goals and preferences. The decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Online sessions offer several practical benefits. Video calls let the therapist see non‑verbal cues and create a session that feels close to face‑to‑face. Phone sessions can be quicker check‑ins or better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer shorter, written check‑ins or who find it easier to express themselves in writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel.
