How Sharon's approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behavior. It helps people notice patterns in how they attach, especially when trust, closeness, or fear of abandonment get in the way of intimacy.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy emphasizes identifying and shifting core emotions in relationships. It is useful for couples and individuals who want clearer emotional communication and more stable connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sharon will listen to your goals and try different methods to see what helps most. She treats the choice of approach as a collaborative decision that can change as progress is made.

If you prefer online sessions, confirm the available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins between bigger life events. Talk with Sharon during the match process about how to shape sessions so they fit your daily routine and goals.
