Sharonda uses approaches that help people change unhelpful thinking and find workable solutions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that feed upset or avoidance. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, achievable goals and track progress.
In session she talks through what’s happening now and what you want to be different. She helps people break problems into small, manageable pieces and practice new responses. Expect a practical plan you can try between sessions and review together.
Clients come for a mix of emotional support and action steps. Common topics include anger, communication problems, commitment issues, parenting strain, and coping with life changes. Sharonda aims to help people handle situations more calmly and clearly.
Approaches used online and what to expect
Sharonda commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical skills to notice and change patterns that increase anger or anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, specific goals and building what already works so progress is visible quickly.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about current problems, what outcomes matter most, and personal preferences. Together they choose techniques and adjust them as progress is reviewed.
