Sharil Williams , LPC

Sharil Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, or struggles with addiction. She also supports those dealing with intimacy-related concerns and questions about sexuality and relationships.

Sharil uses plain talk and a respectful, compassionate style. Sessions are shaped to each person’s needs so conversations focus on what matters most to them. She listens for patterns from a person’s past and present, then helps build practical steps forward.

Her work draws on several approaches, including attachment-focused work that looks at relationship patterns, cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and trauma-informed methods to process painful events. Narrative ideas help people reframe their life stories, and solution-focused steps aim to create immediate, achievable goals.

Clients can expect a mix of listening, gentle reflection, and practical skills to try between sessions. She pays attention to body image, family of origin concerns, communication problems, and issues like infidelity or non-monogamous relationship dynamics when they come up. Her approach centers on helping people find clearer direction and greater self-compassion.

Sharil practices in Wyoming and offers sessions in English. She encourages people to take the first step when they feel ready and will work with them to create a plan that fits their life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections. Online sessions use conversation to identify those patterns and practice new ways of relating that reduce anxiety around closeness and trust.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In teletherapy the therapist helps identify unhelpful thoughts, try small behavioral experiments, and track progress between meetings to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist discusses goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and they adjust methods over time. Clients and the therapist collaborate to choose techniques that match the concern and pace of change the person wants.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text allow for brief, ongoing support between sessions or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping focus on concrete steps and emotional understanding.
