Sharon Crane

Sharon Crane is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with ten years of experience. She speaks English and Portuguese and brings a multicultural perspective from growing up in South America. Sharon aims to meet people where they are and offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence for those feeling overwhelmed.

Sharon draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while also using client-centered and trauma-focused ideas when they fit. She adapts her methods to each person's situation instead of following one set method for everyone. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, and on talking through what's behind strong emotions like anger or panic.

Her background includes work with grief, mood disorders, anxiety, depression, domestic abuse, and relationship struggles. She also has experience supporting parents who are dealing with defiance, bullying, peer pressure, and school performance concerns in their children. Sharon combines that experience with an awareness of cultural differences that can affect behavior and relationships.

Sharon aims to help people manage stress, improve communication, and regain a sense of control. She works with issues such as anger, low self-esteem, impulsivity, isolation, and bipolar mood concerns. People who want clear strategies and a respectful, steady therapist may find her approach helpful.

To start, Sharon asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, so session timing and costs vary by location and availability.

Approaches used online and how they help

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and encouraged to explore their feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence behavior and mood and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, anger, and panic symptoms. Trauma-focused therapy addresses the effects of traumatic events and offers structured ways to reduce distress and reclaim daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they decide which ideas to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also gives people a wider choice of therapists, which can be helpful if language or cultural background matters. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and format details during the intake so sessions work within everyday routines.
