About Sharon

Sharon Clark is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Kentucky with 22 years of professional experience. She transitioned into therapy as a second career, bringing practical life experience together with clinical skills to help people navigate complex real-world challenges. Over two decades she has worked with diverse populations and a wide range of concerns, including addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, relationship and family issues, grief, parenting, LGBT concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and stress-related conditions.

Sharon has worked as a substance abuse counselor and is comfortable supporting individuals and families affected by addiction. Her clinical toolkit includes approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which she adapts to each person’s needs. She offers flexibility in how clients connect and is able to meet by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, with a personal preference for video conferencing to build rapport and observe nonverbal cues.

Sharon emphasizes practical strategies alongside compassionate exploration of underlying patterns, helping clients address issues like intimacy, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, coping with life changes, caregiver stress, and codependency. As an LCSW she holds clinical licensure to provide social work services in Kentucky, and she is currently accepting clients who are located within the United States.

Applying Therapeutic Approaches in Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and build flexible actions that align with those values. It is useful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions by teaching practical skills to accept difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful behavior changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns - it explores emotional bonds, trust, and communication to improve intimacy, relationship difficulties, and family dynamics. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist offers empathy and support to help clients find their own solutions; this approach can be especially helpful for self-esteem, grief, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and she adapts techniques from different models as the work evolves to find the best fit. Clients are invited to participate actively in shaping their care.

Online therapy with Sharon is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, work, or school. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and integrate therapy into everyday life while working with licensed professionals and therapists trained in evidence-informed approaches.
