Meet Sharon

I work with individuals seeking support in working through challenges and stressors impacting their everyday lives. Many individuals struggle with problems in relationships, work-related conflicts, or simply put, that feeling that something "just isn't right." My goal is to help you gain awareness and explore difficult thoughts, feelings, and past experiences which prevent you from being comfortable with yourself, and improve your relationships with others. My counseling approach is client-centered and strengths-based, potentially integrating solution-focused and cognitive behavioral therapy approaches.

My goal is to help you gain awareness and explore difficult thoughts, feelings, and past experiences.
