Sessions typically include active conversation, goal-setting, and short exercises or homework to build practical skills between meetings.
Sharon also has experience in academia, school counseling, life coaching, group work, and teaching. She has worked in a variety of settings over three decades, which she draws on when tailoring session plans and selecting strategies that match a person's circumstances.
People can expect direct, collaborative work that aims to clarify problems and produce usable steps.

Materials and tasks may be assigned between sessions to support steady progress.

How key approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's goals and priorities. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps set goals that make sense for daily life. It is useful for stress, relationship worries, and making decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sessions identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice small behavioral changes. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on current strengths and next steps. It aims to produce quick, practical changes through goal-directed conversations and homework tasks.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Sharon will discuss options and adapt methods based on a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration helps shape a plan with concrete steps and short exercises to try between meetings.
