About Sharisse

Sharisse Ramos is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York. She brings eight years of practice helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Sharisse aims to meet people where they are and help them take practical steps toward more satisfying daily life.

She uses Narrative Therapy alongside cognitive and acceptance-based methods to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, testing new ways of relating, and building small behavior changes that add up over time.

Background and approach

Language is simple and direct so people can use what they learn right away. Sharisse has experience in clinical settings working on family conflict, blended family issues, communication problems, abandonment and attachment concerns, and the strain of caregiving. She also supports people facing body image issues, codependency, control and commitment struggles, and separation or divorce.

Her background includes work with emotional regulation approaches such as dialectical behavior strategies and cognitive behavioral techniques. In sessions she favors a collaborative, client-centered tone. She tailors conversations and plans to each person's goals and pace.

People who choose her often want clear, practical steps and room to tell their story without judgment. Her practice accommodates video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are provided in English and are open to international clients who can participate from afar.

Online session options

Approach-focused care that fits your life

Sharisse integrates Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their life stories and see problems as separate from who they are. This approach is useful for addressing feelings of emptiness, identity questions, and recurring relationship patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and then take steps toward what matters to them. That work often helps with anxiety, stress, and motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people practice new ways of connecting and communicating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you can adjust techniques and pace until the plan feels workable and meaningful.

Online therapy here is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different situations. Video lets you work face to face when schedules allow. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins or when you need flexible support between sessions. These options aim to make regular work on goals easier to fit into a busy life.
