Approaches and Online Therapy that Fit Your Life
Sharon uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful relationship where the client’s goals guide each session. It helps when someone needs support to sort their own values, feelings, and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related difficulties, and stress management.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon will ask about your goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you’ll try methods that fit your needs and adjust the plan as progress is made so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. Video is good for deeper conversation and seeing nonverbal cues, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can be used for quick updates, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and life changes.
