About Sharon

Sharon Wright is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with two decades of experience. She brings practical help for people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, and relationship strains. Sharon aims to meet clients with respect and compassion as they work toward clearer goals.

She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods so sessions stay focused and useful. Sharon draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and client-centered approaches to help people untangle unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness and acceptance strategies are also part of how she helps clients respond to difficult feelings.

Sharon has substantial experience addressing trauma, family and parenting concerns, and issues connected to substance use. She also works with people facing caregiving stress, cancer-related challenges, blended family dynamics, and separation or divorce worries. Practical problems like sleep trouble, anger, and isolation are part of her caseload as well.

In session she aims to build a collaborative plan that matches what a person wants to change. That plan can include skill-building, tracking thoughts and behaviors, and in-the-moment coping tools. Sessions tend to be direct and goal-oriented while still honoring each person’s experience.

Sharon practices in Florida and conducts work in English. She uses a subscription model for scheduling that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability.

How Sharon’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns that keep problems going; it often helps with depression, anxiety, sleep problems, and addictive behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space so clients can move toward their own solutions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Sharon will discuss what you want to change and try methods that fit your goals and preferences. The process is collaborative - you and the therapist adjust the plan as you learn what helps.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing sessions during a lunch break, or using video or phone choices when one is quieter or has lower bandwidth. These practical benefits help people maintain consistency with sessions and apply skills between meetings.
