Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Sharon uses Narrative ideas to help people separate themselves from painful stories and rewrite those narratives in more useful ways. This approach can help when identity, family history, or repeated patterns feel stuck and limiting.She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, and then choosing actions that match personal values. ACT is often useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions where practical steps matter.
Attachment-based work helps people understand how early relationships shape current reactions and closeness with others. That focus can be helpful for intimacy concerns, parenting stresses, and patterns that repeat across relationships.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon will talk with each person about goals, what has helped before, and preferences for hands-on exercises versus reflective conversation. Together they try methods and adjust as needed to find what fits.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper connection, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging works for brief check-ins or when people need flexible timing. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or unpredictable schedules.
