About Sharon

Sharon Albert is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 30 years of experience in mental healthcare. She earned a Master of Science degree in Counselor Education and later completed a PhD in Educational Leadership. Sharon’s background also includes six years as a school administrator and ten years in law enforcement, and she lists concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting, anger, and ADHD among her areas of focus.

She uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. Sharon blends client-centered listening with cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices. She also draws on psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.

In conversation she encourages accountability alongside support. That means talking through what feels hard, identifying repeated reactions, and testing small changes between sessions. She helps people handle workplace frustration, simmering resentment at home, and difficulties with communication and impulse control.

Her prior roles in education and law enforcement shape a pragmatic outlook. Sharon can help with career strain, coping with life changes, and concerns tied to mood disorders or trauma. She also addresses issues like codependency, communication problems, commitment doubts, and financial stress.

Sessions are conducted in English. International clients are not accepted. Before booking, confirm the current session options and scheduling details through the site so arrangements match personal needs.

Approaches used online and how they help

Sharon commonly integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce repeated outbursts, rumination, and avoidance. Mindfulness practice helps people notice their bodily and emotional signals early so they can choose different responses to anger or stress.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and collaboration. Together the client and therapist review what is working, try small experiments between sessions, and adjust goals over time. Deciding which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process based on a person’s goals and preferences.

Confirm current session delivery options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping consistent attention on skills practice and for bringing real-life examples from home or work into the conversation.
