About me

Hi -My name is Sharon Blanchard and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas. Since 1995, I have been counseling in K-12 school settings and teaching counseling courses at the graduate level as well as working with individuals through their mental health concerns. I have supported parents as they navigate the demands of parenting challenging children/teens. I have counseled young adults as they embark on a journey into the professional world or new relationship and are conflicted about who they are emotionally and/or spiritually. I also have counseled with middle-age adults as they make some tough life decisions and are seeking guidance in their circumstances. I, too, have been through the counseling process as an adult and it was such a meaningful experience! Most of my experience revolves around depression, anxiety, interpersonal relationships, parenting issues, career counseling, and self-understanding.

Although my experiences and clients are varied, I believe that all adults (and children) do the best they can with what they know. I think it's important to LISTEN and HEAR what you are saying as you share your situation(s) and emotions. I believe that I can help you sift through all of the "junk" and facilitate new revelations that can change your outlook and your life. I am a Christian and we can explore that influence as little or as much as you desire. I want to be whatever you need as you explore and develop a refreshed sense of YOU as you are healing. You are beautifully and wonderfully made and you deserve to live life to the fullest!

I've been a therapist with BetterHelp since 2021 and I'm excited that you are taking the first step to a more peaceful life as you seek support! If you think I could be of help to you, please reach out and let's get started on your journey to healing.

Sharon has helped me through the hardest time of my life and given me the guidance I’ve need to make it through it. I have never felt better in my life and when I first joined BetterHelp I was broken.

Sharon is incredible! I saw her from 2022-March of 2023 and then restarted with her in July of 2024 because I feel I need her weekly support again. She is an expert is helping me manage my anxiety. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Thank you BetterHelp for matching me with Sharon. The pre questionnaire makes all the difference. It’s only been 6 weeks, but I finally feel someone understands me, yet challenges my way of thinking and the homework is exactly what I need to heal. I can’t say enough.

Sharon listens and has suggestion to work on for the week. She usually has some information to share to help too. She is kind, honest, direct / blunt about your situation and what you might be experiencing. Her counsel is helpful and supportive.
