About Sharie
Sharie Gilner is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She draws on six years of experience in Mississippi to support clients as they take first steps toward change. Sharie works from the view that people know their own stories and already carry strengths they can use to move forward.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings.
How Sharie works
She listens first, then helps identify patterns and tools that fit each person's life. Motivation and confidence are common themes in her work. Sharie uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address stuck thinking and emotional reactions.
She also uses Motivational Interviewing to build momentum and Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events continue to cause distress. These methods are chosen to match what each person needs. Areas Sharie commonly helps with include body image, communication problems, domestic violence, guilt and shame, mood disorders, postpartum depression, post-traumatic stress, sexuality, social anxiety, and young adult issues.
She supports people working through life changes and relationships with themselves and others. People meet her for both short-term coping skills and longer work on deeper patterns. She aims to create a respectful space where practical steps and honest reflection lead to real progress.

Online support options
Approach-Focused Online Counseling for Stress and Trauma
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person and their experience at the center of sessions. The therapist listens without judgment and helps people find their own solutions, which can be useful for building self-esteem and addressing life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect; it provides specific exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of traumatic events and offers ways to process those experiences so they interfere less with daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sharie collaborates with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and pace. She adjusts strategies over time so sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are helpful when visual cues matter and allow a fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or people prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins and flexible ways to report progress between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life while using evidence-based approaches.
