About Shara
Shara Biggs is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with four years of formal experience as an LPC. She helps people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and related struggles such as stress and anxiety. Shara also lists anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, and career issues among her focus areas.
Shara draws from several practical therapeutic approaches. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice painful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her work for breaking unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to build a collaborative, respectful working relationship.
Sessions emphasize straightforward conversation and concrete skills. Clients can expect to talk through recent problems, try new coping strategies, and set small goals to test out between meetings. Shara notes concerns like compassion fatigue, chronic illness, body image, and dissociation among her additional focus areas, and she integrates these into plans when relevant.
Her approach is practical and relational rather than theoretical. She pays attention to what causes frustration or anger in daily life and to patterns that keep those feelings strong. People who want to reduce explosions, manage simmering resentment, or handle others' anger can work on clearer communication and emotion regulation skills.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow her LPC scope in Tennessee. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling details so they match your needs.
How her approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small actions that match their values. It can be useful for anger that comes from avoidance or getting caught in unhelpful reactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger, offering concrete techniques for managing intense reactions and testing new responses.Choosing the best approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That means trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming a single method will suit everyone.
Session formats supported are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Working this way still focuses on building emotion regulation, clearer communication, and practical steps to reduce anger-related problems.
