Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Sharon lists Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a central method. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. It is practical and often includes homework to practice new skills between meetings.She also uses Person-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and helping a person find their own solutions. This approach supports self-awareness and fosters personal insight. Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy is another method she uses; it addresses rigid beliefs and replaces them with more helpful thinking patterns.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what is working as treatment proceeds. Sessions can blend techniques so the plan fits the client's needs and short-term aims.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so please confirm the available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. The therapist and client will agree on practical arrangements that suit daily routines.
