About Sharion

Sharion Phelps is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She works with individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained and want practical, down-to-earth support. She starts by helping people slow things down and name the patterns that keep them reactive.

That makes it easier to spot small changes that can improve mood and reduce worry. Sessions are collaborative and goal oriented, with clear steps clients can try between meetings.

Background and approach

When relationship problems are present she helps partners reconnect and address recurring conflicts. She offers tools for communicating without blame and rebuilding emotional closeness after breaches of trust or infidelity. The Gottman-informed work focuses on improving day-to-day interactions and preventing the same fights from repeating.

Sharion also addresses family of origin issues, forgiveness, guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking and narrative therapy to reframe personal stories. Solution-focused strategies help people set achievable goals and track progress.

With five years of clinical experience in Georgia, she blends systemic thinking with practical skills. Sessions aim to build self-compassion, clearer communication, and steadier responses to stress. People leave with concrete plans they can use in real life.

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Sharion uses cognitive behavioral work to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that drive anxiety and low mood. CBT focuses on practical experiments and small behavior changes that reduce worry and improve daily functioning.

She also uses the Gottman Method for couples work, which centers on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and learning concrete habits that foster intimacy. Those techniques help couples handle recurring conflicts and restore emotional connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the challenges you’re facing, then suggest which methods to try first. Clients and the therapist adjust plans as progress and needs become clearer, keeping the process collaborative.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth sessions and couples work where seeing expressions matters. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option and work well for check-ins. Live chat or texting can fit brief updates, homework checks, or quick emotional support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and daily life.
