About Sharricci
Sharricci Dancy is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people struggling with stress and anxiety. She focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Her manner is warm and straightforward, and she aims to make sessions feel approachable for someone new to therapy.
Sharricci draws on several well-known approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the client.
Background and approach
She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and create manageable behavior changes. She brings three years of formal experience as an LCSW and also works in county healthcare case management. That background gives her experience with a range of life challenges, from grief and midlife transitions to caregiver stress and mood concerns.
In sessions she emphasizes clear tools and small experiments you can try between meetings. Conversations often include skill practice, short-term goals, and checking what feels useful. She also integrates mindfulness ideas to help with emotion regulation and grounding.
People come to her for help with relationships, work stress, life changes, and feelings of depression or anger. She also supports concerns around money, communication problems, hoarding, and end-of-life caregiving. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in California and beyond.
Approaches and online therapy options
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and priorities. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to build understanding and practical next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses simple exercises and small homework tasks to test new ways of thinking and acting. Both approaches are often helpful for anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That may mean using client-centered listening at first, then adding CBT tools or mindfulness practices based on what helps most.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people see each other and work through skill practice in real time. Phone sessions can be easier when video is not possible, and shorter check-ins often fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, journaling prompts, and follow-up between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
