How Sharon's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Sharon often integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Attachment-Based Therapy into her work. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and build actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings - it can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions.CBT is a practical, skills-oriented approach that examines the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is often used for depression, anxiety, and coping with challenges by teaching tools to shift unhelpful patterns.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in current relationships, supporting work with intimacy issues, family dynamics, and relational trauma.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon works with clients to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and adapts techniques over time so the therapy remains useful and relevant.
Online therapy with Sharon is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and geographic constraints. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access therapy from home or work, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with a licensed professional.
