I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience working with families and children with almost 10 years working as a therapist. I have worked with clients who struggle with many different challenges including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, PTSD, substance use, anger management issues, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I also have experience working with veterans and individuals in the field of public safety.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe that each of us are individual and unique, you are the expert as to your story and what is best for you. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, interactive feedback, and mindfulness skills; I also have specialized training in the area of grief and loss, trauma informed therapy, and motivational interviewing. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Sharon is very kind and very understanding. I did get to talk and she listens! She asked some good questions.
But we have not had that many sessions to say anymore than that.

Sharon and I have developed a congenial professional relationship. She offers a magnitude of therapeutic interventions for me to consider and allows me to decide what works best. She allows me the opportunity for self expression and gives me food for thought. She has been a wonderful person to work with and I hope we can continue on this journey to wholeness fir awhile.
