About Sheila

Sheila Hodge-Windover is an OK LMFT with three years of clinical experience. She lists social anxiety and phobia among many concerns she addresses, including stress, relationship problems, grief, self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. Her profile notes work across intimate and interpersonal issues and attention to life transitions and coping skills.

Sheila focuses on practical, down-to-earth feedback in sessions. She aims to help people identify concrete changes they can try between meetings. Sessions combine talking through relationship patterns with skills that reduce overwhelming feelings in social situations and daily life.

Her methods draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, hypnotherapy, and mindfulness approaches. That mix is used to look at thoughts, emotions, and interaction patterns. Sheila emphasizes learning small, repeatable strategies rather than long lectures or one-size-fits-all plans.

She completed a Ph.D. in Health Psychology/Behavioral Medicine from Northcentral University and holds an MS in Behavioral Science and a BS in Psychology from Cameron University. Her earlier roles included work in child protection and probation, and she has experience founding and directing community programs.

She works with individuals and people dealing with relationship strain, addiction-related issues, and trauma and abuse concerns. People considering sessions are encouraged to confirm current session options before booking and to use the matching questionnaire to plan a first meeting.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Sheila integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in ways that translate to remote work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; it can help with social anxiety by practicing new responses and reducing avoidance. EFT looks at emotions in relationships and helps people describe feelings and attachment needs more clearly, which can improve communication with partners or others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sheila will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those needs. That collaborative planning can be adjusted as sessions progress so techniques fit the person's pace and priorities.

The original profile does not specify particular online formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work or caregiving, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find remote meetings help them practice social skills in a familiar setting and apply strategies between sessions.
