Background and approach

Her list of concerns includes family of origin issues and challenges tied to communication and control. Her approach blends body-focused work with acceptance and skills-based therapies. Sharon uses Somatic methods to help people notice how feelings show up in the body.

She combines that with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to build clarity and new habits. Sessions are shaped around each person's goals. Sharon offers a warm, client-centered style that invites practical steps and honest conversation.

She encourages experimentation with small changes and tracks what works in daily life. Sharon holds a Kentucky LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) credential. She communicates in English and provides therapy by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

To begin, the process involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session that fits the client's timeline.

How Somatic and ACT approaches translate to online therapy

Somatic work helps people notice bodily signals tied to emotions and stress. Online sessions can guide gentle body awareness, breathing, and movement exercises while helping clients name what they feel. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed steps toward them; it helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching practical actions and acceptance skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build new ways of relating and expressing needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. Decisions about which methods to use are collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or caregiving demands. Video calls allow face-to-face connection, while phone, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or fit therapy into a packed day. These options help maintain continuity of care and let people try different formats to see what supports their goals best.
