About Myoung
Myoung Shin Hilson is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage anxiety, stress, grief, and life changes. She speaks English and Korean and works from Wyoming. Her style aims to make hard conversations feel manageable and straightforward.
She brings 15 years of counseling experience to sessions. Myoung favors clear, practical tools alongside reflective conversations. She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try small, doable changes.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on the client's experience and priorities. Myoung creates a calm space where people can talk about relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, parenting stress, caregiving strain, and career concerns. She also supports those facing addiction, domestic violence, and difficult family dynamics.
Her work draws on client-centered and existential ideas as well. That means conversations address values, meaning, and what matters most to each person. Motivational Interviewing may be used to help strengthen motivation when change feels difficult.
Myoung also brings attention to body-mind connections and coping skills learned in mind-body medicine training. She aims to help people build practical daily routines, steady coping strategies, and clearer choices when feeling overwhelmed. People who choose her often want a mix of concrete tools and deeper reflection.
She encourages small steps, steady progress, and a focus on what someone can do next rather than on blame or perfection.
How her approaches work online
Client-centered work means the sessions follow what matters to the person in front of the screen. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people set goals that fit their life and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life steps. It helps with anxiety, panic, low mood, and stress by teaching practical skills to change thinking and behavior. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and teaches simple practices to reduce reactivity and calm the body. Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is made. Online formats let people connect in ways that fit their schedule and situation. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation and exercises that use visual materials. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, step-by-step coaching, and staying connected between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, caregiving, or other responsibilities. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver the same clinical approaches while keeping sessions flexible and practical.Questions people ask
