Hattie Williams, LCMHC - Therapist in North Carolina

About Hattie

Hattie Williams is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who focuses on family and parenting concerns as well as individual challenges like anxiety, depression, grief, and stress. She speaks plainly with caregivers and parents, helping them sort immediate problems and figure out next steps. Her approach is warm and steady, aimed at practical progress rather than quick fixes.

Hattie offers a calm presence and listens closely to understand what matters most to each family.

Background and approach

Hattie draws on six years of clinical counseling experience and more than three decades in human services. She trained with a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University and holds the North Carolina Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential - NC LCMHC 14761.

In sessions she uses familiar methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to help people change unhelpful patterns. Her style blends attachment-based thinking with client-centered care and narrative approaches. That means she helps families name patterns, talk about how those patterns started, and try small changes to improve daily life.

She also uses solution-focused ideas to set goals that feel manageable. Hattie has worked in schools and grief settings, including grief counseling for children. She has experience supporting people through life transitions, parenting struggles, postpartum concerns, and end-of-life or hospice-related issues.

Her work often involves helping clients handle anger, intimacy questions, ADHD-related challenges, and relationship tensions. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to each family’s comfort. Hattie walks alongside clients as they try new skills, reflect on what helps, and build toward clearer routines and stronger connections.

Approaches for online family and parenting support

Hattie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered approaches in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and offers concrete skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, respect, and the client's own goals, creating space for parents and family members to explore what matters most to them.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to help families understand relationship patterns and how early connections affect current interactions. That approach can clarify why conflicts repeat and guide small changes that improve closeness over time. Choosing the right approach is collaborative - the therapist and client discuss needs, preferences, and goals and adjust methods as they go.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit family schedules. These formats let parents and caregivers access support from home, keep continuity during busy weeks, and try short check-ins when needed. Hattie uses these options to help families build routines, practice new skills between sessions, and stay connected to steady support while managing everyday life.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
