About Sharon

Sharon Wright is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with two decades of experience. She has spent much of her career helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addiction, and trauma. Sharon aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Sharon works in a straightforward, practical way. She uses cognitive-behavioral ideas and client-centered listening to help people notice patterns and try new responses. Mindfulness and acceptance-based strategies are part of how she helps with anger, grief, sleep problems, and relationship strain.

She pays attention to the whole person and their life situation. That can mean talking through parenting challenges, caregiver stress, blended family concerns, or problems tied to addiction and domestic violence. Sharon also supports people dealing with chronic illness, bereavement, and isolation.

Sessions focus on clear goals and steps that people can use between meetings. This might include practical behavior changes, communication practice, or skills for managing intense emotions. Sharon emphasizes collaboration - she and the client decide what feels most useful.

Her background includes long work with family violence and addiction populations, and she brings that experience to complex cases. Sharon practices in Florida and uses plain language so people can understand each step of care.

How these approaches can help online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then act toward what matters. It can be useful for anger, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve sleep, mood, or relationship patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to stay present and manage strong emotions, which can lower reactivity and support coping with grief or trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or blend methods based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That means trying ideas, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit into a workday, cut travel time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions also allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and they let people use audio-only or video if that suits them better. Talk with the therapist about what will work best in your routine and circumstances.
