About Sharon
Sharon Albert is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and mood concerns. She answers direct questions about daily struggles and helps people find clearer ways forward. Her style balances practical steps with attention to how past patterns affect current life.
Sharon draws on skills from cognitive-behavioral work and mindfulness to help people notice thoughts and make small changes.
Background and approach
She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at repeated patterns that show up in relationships and decision making. Solution-focused techniques are used when people want concrete goals and short-term progress. Her background includes time as a school administrator and a former law enforcement officer, experiences she says shaped her calm, grounded approach.
The LPC credential reflects her Master of Science in Counselor Education and long clinical practice. She sees complex issues such as trauma and abuse, bipolar and mood disorders, panic and ADHD alongside everyday challenges like parenting, career decisions, and money worries. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-oriented while allowing space for emotion and reflection.
Sharon emphasizes personal responsibility along with empathy, and she works with each person to build a plan that fits their life. She encourages people to acknowledge the courage it takes to ask for help. Her practice is based in Mississippi and sessions are offered in English.
People can expect clear conversation about goals, practical tools to try between meetings, and attention to how current problems connect to past experiences.
Approaches and flexibility for online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspective, giving them space to lead the work while the therapist reflects and supports. This approach works well for people who want a collaborative, respectful environment to talk through anxiety, relationship concerns, or life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, panic, mood concerns, and managing stress with concrete tools to practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your needs, goals, and preferences and then tailor a plan using one or more approaches. That collaboration helps determine whether to focus on skills training, exploring deeper patterns, or short-term goal work.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging can serve for brief check-ins, quick coping ideas, or when scheduling needs a flexible option. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on progress and practical strategies.
