How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Sharon uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding what keeps difficult emotions going. One common approach she uses helps people identify triggers and unhelpful thinking patterns, then practice alternative responses that reduce anger and anxiety in daily life. This method suits work on stress, low mood, and impulsive reactions.Another approach she applies concentrates on processing traumatic memories and their ongoing effects. It helps people separate past events from present reactions so they can lower reactivity and feel more in control of emotional responses. This work is often helpful for trauma, abuse, and related mood disturbances.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon will discuss options with each person, consider their goals and preferences, and adapt techniques as needed. Together they pick strategies that fit the client's day-to-day life and the problems they want to change.
