Sheila Krieger, LPC

Sheila Krieger is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and life transitions. She speaks directly and respectfully, and she aims to create a space where people can talk about hard things and figure out next steps. She works with concerns related to self-esteem, motivation, trauma and abuse, and identity issues including LGBT matters.

With ten years of experience, Sheila shapes sessions around each person’s needs. She tailors conversation and plans so they fit practical goals. That might mean breaking a big problem into small steps, trying new coping strategies, or practicing ways to communicate more clearly.

Her approach draws on methods that focus on thoughts, feelings, and relationships. Sheila uses tools from cognitive behavioral work to spot patterns that get in the way. She also uses client-centered and attachment-informed ideas to strengthen connection and self-understanding.

People often come to work through relationship strain, parenting stress, career crossroads, or grief over change. Sheila pays attention to how life demands affect daily routines and energy. She offers coaching-style support alongside therapeutic work to help build concrete habits and choices.

Sheila is licensed in Michigan as an LPC. She offers sessions in English and can work with international clients. If you want a straightforward therapist who listens and helps you map out practical steps, she may be a fit.

How her approaches translate to online work

Sheila draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. ACT often helps when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed by worry or avoidance. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person’s own goals and pace, offering listening, reflection, and support to clarify what matters most.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Sheila will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress or challenges appear.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people connect consistently across locations when schedules or life changes make in-person meetings harder.
