About Shara
Shara Biggs is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support. She uses clear conversation and concrete tools to help people facing anxiety, depression, addictions, and low self-esteem. She aims to meet people where they are and move forward together.
Shara keeps sessions straightforward. She listens first, then tailors a plan to each person’s needs. That plan can include skills for managing stress, ways to cope with trauma, or steps to rebuild confidence after loss or major change.
Background and approach
Her work draws on approaches like acceptance and commitment methods, cognitive behavior strategies, and client-centered talk therapy. That mix helps people notice unhelpful patterns, practice small changes, and build goals that matter to them. Sessions can include learning new skills and trying out different ways to respond to feelings.
People often come for help with relationships, grief, parenting strain, or difficulties sleeping and eating. Shara also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, chronic illness, ADHD concerns, and career stress. She adjusts the focus as needs shift over time.
Shara has four years of clinical experience as an LPC in Tennessee. She speaks English and offers sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Starting begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session that fits the person’s timing.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying practical behavior changes to reduce distress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience, offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space to talk things through.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can change as progress is made or new challenges appear.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make attending therapy easier. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options aim to give flexibility and consistent access to care.
