About Sharon
Sharon Crane is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with ten years of experience. She speaks English and Portuguese and draws on her multicultural background to relate to people from different places. Sharon aims to offer a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, panic attacks, grief, relationship strain, and other concerns.
She uses common-sense strategies rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while staying flexible about what each person needs. Much of her work focuses on practical skills for managing strong feelings like panic, anger, and mood swings. Sharon also helps people who are coping with life changes, family challenges, or career stress.
Her approach is client-centered, which means sessions focus on the person in front of her and what matters most to them. She combines that stance with trauma-focused ideas when past hurt is getting in the way. Conversations tend to be collaborative and paced to the individual, with attention to practical steps between meetings.
Sharon has experience with grief counseling, relationship difficulties, and issues related to parenting as described in her background. She has worked with diverse populations and aims to respect cultural differences in how problems show up and are solved.

Approaches for anxiety, trauma, and everyday stress
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding where you are now. It helps people feel heard and guides decisions about what to work on next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills for reducing panic, anxiety, and low mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy pays attention to how past hurts affect current reactions and uses careful steps to reduce their impact.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where your feedback shapes what comes next.
Confirm the specific session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or avoiding travel time to an office. It also allows people in other regions to work with licensed professionals who use CBT and trauma-informed methods.
