About June
June Sharkey is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress and anxiety. She works with concerns such as trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, motivation, and depression. June aims to make the first steps toward therapy feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.
She draws on straightforward, problem-focused methods to help people reduce symptoms and build skills. Sessions involve talking through current problems, identifying unhelpful thinking, and practicing concrete strategies to feel more in control.
Background and approach
June adapts conversations and the plan to each person’s needs rather than using the same approach for everyone. Her work often includes teaching practical skills for handling stressful moments and improving day-to-day functioning. That can mean learning tools to calm intense feelings, changing patterns of thinking that feed anxiety, or building small routines that support motivation and confidence.
June places attention on respect and sensitivity in every interaction. Over two decades she has helped people through a range of life challenges that affect mood and wellbeing. She aims to create a steady, predictable space where progress is measured in real, manageable steps.
June encourages people to try a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session when they are ready. She is licensed in Nevada as an LCSW, and she conducts sessions in English. Online and phone-based options are used alongside text and live chat for flexible ways to connect.
Practical approaches for online anxiety and stress care
June uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep anxiety and depression going. It often involves simple exercises and homework to practice new ways of responding to stressful situations. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distressing moments, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can be helpful for people who feel overwhelmed by strong feelings or conflict.Finding the right approach is a team effort. June will talk with each person about symptoms, life goals, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which techniques to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made. The emphasis is on clear steps and practical tools rather than on jargon or lengthy explanations.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which let people connect in ways that fit their schedules. Video is useful for in-depth sessions and demonstrating skills. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging can be useful for short updates, homework check-ins, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to get consistent support while balancing work, parenting, or other commitments.
