Sharon Bingham, LMFT - Therapist in Utah

About Sharon

Sharon Bingham is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and depression. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can name their feelings and figure out practical next steps. Sharon encourages small changes that build toward greater balance and relief.

She speaks plainly and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to each person. With 15 years of experience, Sharon draws on several evidence-based methods to tailor care to individual needs.

Background and approach

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and stay present when things feel hard. The Gottman Method informs her work around communication and relational patterns.

In sessions she aims to teach skills for coping with grief, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and mood shifts. She often helps people who are adjusting to life changes and working on self-esteem or social anxiety. Practical communication tools and problem-solving are common parts of the work.

Sharon holds the LMFT credential, license number UT LMFT 291773-3902, and practices in Utah. She offers therapy in English and does not work with international clients. Her approach is collaborative and grounded in clear, usable strategies.

Parents and caregivers will find straightforward guidance, real listening, and a focus on concrete steps. Sessions cover both immediate coping and longer-term patterns to support lasting change.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and still move toward what matters most. It teaches simple exercises to stay present and act according to values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and trying new behaviors to change mood and stress. It breaks problems into small steps and gives clear strategies for coping with worry, sadness, and social anxiety.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. Together they check what helps and adjust the plan as needed, so the work stays practical and useful.

Online therapy makes these methods more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when that feels important. Phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging let people use therapy between errands, while traveling, or from home. This mix of formats helps fit therapy into busy family and parenting lives and supports steady progress over time.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.
