About Sierra
Sierra Willis is an Ohio LPCC with six years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger, grief, parenting strain, relationship tension, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
She believes people already know many of the answers they need. Her role is to reflect what she notices and offer different ways to look at problems. Sessions focus on practical steps and on building a plan that fits each person’s circumstances.
Sierra works in a collaborative way. She draws on client-centered methods to follow the person’s lead. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try out different behaviors.
Her background is varied. She has provided services in college settings, correctional facilities, schools, and community programs. That range shaped a practice that adapts to common life pressures and practical barriers people face when trying to change.
In sessions she combines motivational interviewing, narrative and solution-focused approaches to set clear goals and notice progress. Conversations are direct and task-oriented when helpful, and reflective when someone wants to make sense of their story. She supports people as they test small changes, track how those feel, and adjust plans when needed.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and clarifies the goals they want to work toward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple experiments and homework to try new responses in everyday life. Motivational Interviewing helps people sort through mixed feelings and find reasons to move toward change.Choosing the right approach is often part of the work. Sierra partners with each person to decide which methods to emphasize based on goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That means techniques can shift over time as progress or obstacles become clear.
The practical benefits of meeting with a licensed professional online include making sessions fit into a busy schedule and keeping momentum between appointments.
