Sharon has been so helpful to me. She is so easy to talk to and I felt very comfortable straight away. She offers help and explanations for why I feel certain ways and gives tools and advice for me to help myself.

Sharon did a great job of guiding me through initial troubles and concerns, helping me make some sense of a difficult situation. She is kind, patient and professional. Highly recommended.

Sharon is incredible at her job. Kind, compassionate, helpful - bringing clarity and understanding to her job with enthusiasm and joy. You feel held by Sharon, guided by her when you want help, and always listened to. She meets you where you are, with no judgement. There's nothing I wouldn't feel comfortable brining to a session. She is phenomenal.

Sharon is honestly the best therapist I think I've had in 14 years of seeking therapy. She's attentive, understanding, kind, caring. She really pays attention and remembers details from sessions that even I forget. I look forward to every session with Sharon. It feels like having a chat with a good friend. Highly recommend this incredible woman!
