About Hattie
Hattie Williams is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina who helps people facing anxiety, phobias, grief, and life changes. She works with adults, teens, and children across a range of concerns like depression, anger, low self-esteem, parenting stress, and trauma. Her manner is steady and respectful, and she aims to meet each person where they are.
Her background includes six years providing clinical counseling plus more than 30 years in broader human services work.
Background and approach
That experience includes grief counseling in schools and national grief settings. She draws on practical skills learned across different roles to help people toward clearer coping and safer emotional ground. In sessions she uses an eclectic approach that borrows from cognitive behavioral techniques, attachment-based ideas, mindfulness, narrative work, and client-centered principles.
She helps people notice patterns, try small behavior changes, and tell the story of their lives in ways that reduce shame and increase agency. Hattie emphasizes collaboration. She listens first, then suggests methods that fit the person and the problem.
Progress is treated as a series of small steps rather than a single big fix. Her practice also focuses on specific issues such as hospice and end-of-life counseling, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, veteran-related concerns, jealousy, intimacy issues, and phobias. Sessions are offered in English and arranged from her North Carolina location.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Attachment-based therapy focuses on relationships and how early connections shape current feelings and responses; it helps people who struggle with trust, closeness, or repeated relationship patterns. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical steps to reduce anxiety, phobias, and low mood. Mindfulness therapy trains attention and awareness so people can respond calmer to stress and interrupt automatic reactions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Hattie collaborates with clients to choose methods that fit their goals and day-to-day life. She starts by listening, then offers tools and experiments clients can try between sessions to see what helps.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let you use visual cues and practice exposures or role plays, phone sessions can be a shorter check-in that needs less bandwidth, live chat supports quicker back-and-forth problem solving, and text messaging works for brief updates or when journaling feels helpful. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine and to keep working on concerns like anxiety, phobias, grief, or parenting stress regardless of location.
