About Hattie
Hattie Williams is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who helps people manage strong feelings and everyday stress. She is based in North Carolina and offers calm, practical support for anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem struggles. Her style is warm and respectful and she aims to meet people where they are.
Hattie uses clear, down-to-earth methods in sessions. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - known as CBT - to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive space, and Attachment-Based ideas to look at how relationships shape reactions. Her background includes six years of professional counseling and more than thirty years working in human services. She has provided grief counseling in schools and in broader grief-focused settings, and has supported people facing trauma, parenting challenges, ADHD, and life transitions.
She also addresses concerns related to hospice and end-of-life, postpartum depression, phobias, seasonal mood changes, and issues such as jealousy and intimacy difficulties. Sessions focus on practical steps, skill-building, and stories that help make sense of difficult feelings. Hattie listens closely and helps clients set realistic goals.
She encourages small changes that build toward larger gains. People who choose her can expect a steady presence and an emphasis on strengths. Hattie aims to help clients move from surviving to feeling more capable and in control of their lives.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Attachment-Based ideas focus on how early and close relationships shape how people react now. Online sessions can use this approach to look at patterns in current relationships and build safer ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. In remote sessions clients can practice skills, track thoughts between meetings, and review progress together. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client's lead; this can feel steady and supportive over video or phone.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Hattie will talk with each person about what feels most useful and try methods that match their goals and preferences. That process is collaborative - she helps shape the plan while leaving room for the client to guide the focus.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits quick check-ins, and messaging allows ongoing reflection between meetings. These options add flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving, or other commitments and make regular contact easier to maintain.
