About Sheree

Sheree Collins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She brings 18 years of experience working with people who face stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, addictions, and parenting challenges. Sheree uses practical, straightforward methods to help parents and individuals tackle everyday struggles.

She writes and speaks plainly in sessions and keeps goals focused and manageable. Sheree combines client-centered care with cognitive behavioral tools and dialectical behavior strategies.

Background and approach

She emphasizes coping skills that people can use between sessions. Conversations focus on specific problems, clear goals, and small steps toward change. Parents often appreciate the direct guidance on communication, boundaries, and behavior strategies.

Her background includes work in residential programs, outpatient and inpatient settings, in-home care, and independent practice. That range has shaped an adaptable approach that fits different life situations. Sheree has spent years helping people with trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and substance concerns.

In session she adopts a warm and steady style. She addresses problems head on while staying at each person’s pace. That balance helps people who are ready to change and those who feel unsure about starting.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Sheree uses evidence-informed approaches and focuses on concrete skills, problem solving, and collaborative planning.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online care

Sheree uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and building a trusting relationship so people can explore problems at their own pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teaches concrete coping skills to change behaviors and feelings.

She often supplements those with dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation when needed. DBT skills teach practical tools for managing intense emotions, improving tolerance for distress, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness. These approaches translate well to remote work because they emphasize clear tools and steps people can practice between sessions.

Finding the right fit is part of the process. Sheree works collaboratively to choose approaches that match a person’s goals, preferences, and situation. She reviews options, tries techniques, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families and individuals. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when video is not possible, and live chat or text-based messaging lets people check in between sessions. This range helps fit care into real life while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
