Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Sharon draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based work to tailor care to each person. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for the client as the expert of their own experience - it is useful for building self-esteem, clarifying values, and strengthening relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related problems; it offers practical skills for coping and problem solving. Mindfulness therapy introduces present-moment awareness and simple attentional practices that can help manage stress and increase emotional regulation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and together they decide which methods to prioritize and how to adapt them over time to meet changing needs.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes those approaches more accessible and flexible. These options support scheduling around work, family, and mobility constraints, and allow clients to continue consistent care even when travel or time are limited. Licensed professionals can use these modalities to deliver many of the same therapeutic strategies as in-person sessions while accommodating each client’s practical needs.
