About Sharon
Sharon Overfelt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping adults manage anxiety, stress, depression, relationship struggles, and trauma. She brings seven years of clinical experience and a calm, respectful presence to sessions. Sharon uses a blend of body-focused and mindfulness-informed methods to help clients notice what’s happening inside their bodies and minds.
She pairs mindfulness-based somatic work with techniques aimed at emotional processing. That combination helps people access memories and feelings held in the body, then work through them at a manageable pace.
Background and approach
Sessions are meant to feel grounded and practical rather than theoretical. Before counseling, Sharon worked in business and IT, and she draws on that background to help clients handle work stress, life transitions, and practical problem solving. Her experience includes work as a primary therapist at an outpatient program for adults in Plano, Texas, and ongoing independent practice work in the area.
Sharon identifies curiosity, compassion, and nonviolence as core values in her approach. She aims to create a warm space where clients feel heard and can explore issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, codependency, communication problems, infidelity, and isolation. Outside of therapy she finds renewal near water and on mindful walks.
Those practices influence her therapeutic style by keeping sessions focused on present-moment awareness, self-reflection, and steady progress toward clearer goals.
Mindfulness and Somatic Approaches for Online Care
Sharon uses mindfulness-based, somatic methods to help people notice how feelings show up in the body. This approach encourages gentle awareness of physical sensations and their connection to thoughts and emotions, which can be useful for anxiety, trauma, and stress-related symptoms.She also uses emotional processing techniques that focus on identifying and moving through difficult feelings. These methods aim to help people reduce the intensity of overwhelming emotions and build stronger emotional regulation over time, which can support work on attachment, abandonment, or relationship wounds.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and past experiences to decide which methods to use. Sessions can shift as needs change, and she works together with each person to find what feels most helpful.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls let therapists and clients use visual cues and guided body awareness exercises, while phone sessions can work better when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions, and support that fits around work or family time.
