About me

As a licensed therapist with extensive experience serving diverse communities in Michigan, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate issues like depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship dynamics, and personal growth.

I bring a compassionate, holistic approach to therapy, drawing from decades of professional experience working with individuals across different life stages—from young adults to older adults. My background includes deep expertise in addressing self-esteem challenges, communication difficulties, social anxiety, and interpersonal relationship dynamics.

My therapeutic style is warm and collaborative, focusing on empowering clients to develop stronger self-understanding, build resilience, and create meaningful personal transformation. I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where individuals can explore their experiences, heal from past wounds, and develop healthier coping strategies.

I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet your specific emotional needs and personal goals. Whether you're struggling with life transitions, relationship challenges, or seeking deeper self-awareness, I'm here to support you with genuine empathy and professional guidance.

Sharon has been a great help during my journey. I couldn’t be thankful enough to have someone who listens and gives me advice helping to change my situation. Would highly recommend Sharon if you’re looking to find the why and grow as individual!

Attentive and compassionate. Used my own strengths/weaknesses within my therapy sessions to help me uncover things for myself. A great human in this realm!

Sharon is wonderful, if you are willing to put in the effort you will get the biggest reward. She uses different tools to help you find growth and the more examples we can provide the better she will be able to understand your situation and help you grow. She can be no nonsense if needed, and will hold you accountable. Do your homework!
