About Sharon
Sharon Jordan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, and addiction concerns. She approaches sessions with warmth and empathy. Her manner is supportive and direct, aimed at helping parents and adults who are feeling overwhelmed or stuck.
Sharon draws on practical, evidence-informed methods to help people handle relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and career or self-esteem struggles.
Background and approach
She focuses on clear steps clients can try between sessions. Conversations often include skills practice, goal setting, and real-life problem solving. Before becoming a therapist she spent six years working in a behavioral program that stabilized families facing crisis and the risk of out-of-home placement.
That work shaped how she supports people through high-stress situations and complex family problems, including adoption and foster care issues. Her style is client-centered and strengths-based. She centers dignity, compassion, and respect in each session while remaining focused on practical progress.
She also brings trauma-aware and solution-focused perspectives when safety and healing are priorities. Sharon offers care from New York and works with people from diverse backgrounds, including multicultural and LGBT concerns. She provides session formats that fit different schedules and communication needs and aims to help each person find strategies that fit their life.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them, often helping with mood, anxiety, ADHD-related struggles, and compulsive behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, giving space for empathy and acceptance while the client leads what feels most important to work on.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Sharon collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. She tailors techniques to individual goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities rather than prescribing a single method for everyone.
Online therapy makes regular care easier for many people. Video calls offer face-to-face conversation and longer sessions, phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option for check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging make it possible to share short updates or get brief support between meetings. These formats add flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and help integrate therapy into a busy life.
