Sharron Lewis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana. She earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Washington in Seattle in 2001 and began her clinical career working in inpatient psychiatry at the Veteran's Administration Hospital in Seattle for two years before returning to Louisiana to be near family.

Her therapeutic approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness practices, and self-compassion work. She emphasizes body-mind based methods that support brain-centered healing and increased awareness of bodily experience to support emotional change. Clients tend to describe her as safe and warm.

Sharron works collaboratively to clarify therapy goals and to develop an individualized plan of care tailored to each person's needs. She is passionate about helping individuals grow and heal and brings years of clinical leadership and direct practice to her work.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life changes and focuses on building psychological flexibility.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and emotional regulation. This approach can be helpful for people working through abandonment, attachment issues, intimacy-related concerns, and relationship difficulties.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is commonly applied for depression, anxiety, sleep difficulties, and coping with life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sharron Lewis collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques from these models as treatment progresses.

Online therapy with Sharron can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and for engaging from home or another convenient location. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care around work, family, and other commitments while accessing evidence-informed therapeutic support.
