Background and approach

Her background includes time as a school administrator and a decade in law enforcement, which shaped her direct and organized approach. In sessions Sharon mixes cognitive behavioral strategies with mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas. She uses solution-focused techniques to set small, concrete goals and builds skills people can use between meetings.

Conversations are practical, with clear steps and attention to how thoughts and habits affect daily life. Sharon believes each person’s needs are different and creates plans to fit those needs. She emphasizes personal responsibility while offering supportive coaching through difficult changes.

That combination helps people move from feeling stuck to making steady progress. Her work covers a wide range of issues including ADHD, panic, mood disorders, relationship and communication problems, codependency, and multicultural concerns. Sharon aims to be direct, respectful, and focused on helping clients find workable solutions.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options

Sharon uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, mood symptoms, panic, and everyday stress because it focuses on small changes that produce different results.

She also draws on mindfulness therapy, teaching simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Mindfulness supports coping with grief, trauma reminders, and managing strong emotions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sharon collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan as progress or needs change.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier for busy families and individuals. These options let people meet from home, follow up between sessions, and use formats that suit their comfort and routines. The variety of formats supports consistent care and flexible ways to practice new skills between appointments.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
