01About Sommer
Sommer Hail helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and depression. She practices with calm and directness, keeping conversations focused and practical so parents can use what they learn quickly. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new responses.
Solution-focused techniques keep sessions goal-oriented so progress is visible. Somatic and trauma-focused work are used when past events show up in the body or daily life.
Background and approach
Sommer has nine years of professional experience and holds the credential LPCC, which refers to a California clinical counseling license. She frames care around respect, sensitivity, and compassion and adapts her approach to each person's situation. In sessions she will listen, ask specific questions, and suggest small experiments to try between visits.
Parents often appreciate short, practical strategies they can use right away to reduce tension and improve communication. Her work aims to help people feel steadier day to day and make choices that match their values. She supports people through transitions such as separation or changes in parenting roles, and she helps with workplace stress, mood concerns, and the aftermath of trauma.

04Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online care
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT can include exercises, thought records, and short between-session tasks to reduce anxiety and lift mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help people respond differently to stress and anxious thoughts, and these practices can be guided in video or phone sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and daily routines and together decide which methods to try first. This collaborative process allows adjustments over time so the plan fits the person and their life.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues and practice skills live. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, skill coaching, or written reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around parenting, work, and other responsibilities.
