About Sharon

Sharon Wright is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with about 20 years of experience. She has long focused on issues tied to family violence and addictions and has steadily worked with people facing depression, anxiety, relationship strains, and parenting challenges.

She treats each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sharon pays attention to the whole person and the life around them. Sessions are shaped by what a client needs and wants to accomplish.

Her style leans on straightforward cognitive-behavioral work and rational-emotive ideas. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try different behaviors, and build practical skills to change day-to-day patterns.

Sharon also draws on approaches that emphasize values and present-moment awareness to help people tolerate hard feelings and commit to meaningful actions. She uses mindfulness and acceptance-minded strategies alongside skill training where useful.

People often come for help with stress, coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, grief, sleep problems, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Sharon aims to make the work collaborative and focused on clear goals that fit each person's life.

For someone balancing caregiving, blended family pressures, or the strain of illness and recovery, she offers steady practical support and problem-solving to make daily life more manageable.

How Sharon uses evidence-based approaches online

Sharon commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing cravings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she uses; it focuses on clarifying personal values, accepting difficult emotions, and taking committed action toward what matters.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Sharon will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. She emphasizes collaboration and adjusts plans as needs and preferences become clearer during sessions.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling to appointments.
