Cecilia Williams
Licensed Professional Counselor

Having been in therapy myself, I understand the courage it takes to seek help and I enjoy guiding others to discover their own solutions. I enjoy working with teens, adults, couples, and families from a variety of backgrounds. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves or others. I often work with individuals struggling with identity exploration, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and mood or personality disorders. I also support clients who are navigating relationship challenges, self-esteem issues, trauma, and family dynamics.

My approach is collaborative and centered on meeting each person where they are in their journey. I utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) techniques as my primary approach but I am also known to focus on childhood experiences and attachment related interventions. I believe that self-compassion and empathy are the foundation of meaningful therapeutic work, and I strive to create a space where clients feel supported.
