Sheila Krieger , LPC

Sheila Krieger is a licensed professional counselor who helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She works with clients on relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction recovery, self-esteem, and parenting challenges. Sheila centers respect and compassion in sessions and adapts her approach to each person's needs.

She has ten years of clinical experience and holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC. Her background includes supporting people after trauma and abuse and helping those living with bipolar disorder and ADHD. She also addresses concerns around body image, eating, and career changes.

Sheila uses several evidence-informed approaches during sessions. She often draws on cognitive behavioral methods to identify thinking patterns and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take meaningful steps. Attachment-based work and emotionally-focused techniques guide conversations about intimacy and communication.

Sessions are collaborative and practical. Sheila focuses on what a person wants to change and on small, doable steps toward those goals. She offers coaching-style strategies when clients want concrete tools for daily life.

People who reach out can expect a calm, straightforward space to talk through hard topics. Sheila aims to help clients build clearer choices, better coping skills, and stronger connections with themselves and others. She welcomes international clients and conducts sessions in English from her Michigan practice.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Sheila often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people get clearer about what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. ACT can help with anxiety, low mood, and making life changes. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and to improve how people connect and communicate with partners or close others.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sheila discusses options with each person and tailors methods to their goals and preferences. This collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made or new needs appear.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use body language and more in-depth conversation. Phone sessions are a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text can support shorter check-ins, journaling between appointments, or steady support when schedules are tight. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, and busy lives while working with licensed professionals.
