How Sharon blends structured approaches for online care
Sharon uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot the thoughts and habits that increase anxiety and panic. CBT sessions often include practice assignments and stepwise changes to daily routines to reduce symptoms and build confidence.She also incorporates mindfulness therapy to teach attention and breathing practices that can calm the body and mind. Mindfulness work focuses on short, repeatable exercises that people can use when stress spikes.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work together. Sharon discusses goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before to decide whether CBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, or solution-focused ideas fit best. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted over time.
