Approaches that guide online sessions
Sharon uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people make change. One common approach focuses on skill-building for anxiety and stress - teaching breathing, grounding, and step-by-step behavioral adjustments to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another approach centers on mood and motivation by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavior experiments to lift mood and increase meaningful activity.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Sharon will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which strategies to try first and adjust the plan as progress is tracked.
Online work uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging for flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a busy schedule or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or to follow up on homework between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a daily routine and keep momentum between sessions.
