About Sheila
Sheila Krieger is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and life changes. She approaches sessions with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sheila aims to create straightforward, practical plans that fit each person’s situation and goals.
She works in Michigan and brings ten years of clinical experience to her work. People meet her for support with trauma and abuse, motivation and self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges related to ADHD and bipolar disorder.
Background and approach
She also addresses career strain, caregiver stress, and eating or body-image worries. Sheila blends several helpful methods in session, including the Gottman Method for relationship patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and action, and cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. She adapts these approaches to match what each person needs rather than sticking to one fixed model.
Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Sheila listens first, helps set clear goals, and works together with each person on steps they can use between sessions. She also offers coaching-style support when people want practical tools for day-to-day problems.
She accepts English-language clients and sees people via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Starting is simple: use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability.

Online support
Flexible approaches for online therapy and relationship work
Sheila often uses the Gottman Method to look at how people interact in relationships and to teach clearer communication and conflict skills. This approach focuses on patterns between people and practical exercises that can be tried between sessions.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take small committed actions even when feelings are hard. Attachment-Based Therapy is another tool she draws on to understand how early bonds shape present-day relationships and to build more supported ways of relating.
Sheila treats finding the right method as a team effort. She will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust what they do based on what helps most. That collaborative process means the work changes as progress is made and new needs arise.
Online sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into busy lives. Video works well for in-depth conversation and relationship work, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option, chat or text messaging can suit short check-ins or ongoing coaching, and switching formats is possible when schedules change. These options help people stay connected to therapy when travel, work, or distance would otherwise make regular visits difficult.
