Shara Biggs , LPC

Shara Biggs is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee. She focuses on practical, person-centered care that helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and issues tied to women’s concerns. Her style is direct and respectful, aimed at making the first step feel manageable.

She uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based work to address a wide range of problems. That includes addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and intimacy-related concerns. She also helps with eating and sleeping issues, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

Shara works with people on relationship matters, boundaries, communication problems, and codependency. She supports those coping with chronic illness, bereavement, divorce, and other life changes. She also addresses neurodiversity topics such as autism and related communication differences.

Sessions are built around the client's goals. Conversations are tailored so practical skills and real-life steps come out of each meeting. She draws on dialectical strategies when emotions feel overwhelming and on CBT tools when thoughts and behaviors need shifting.

Shara emphasizes collaboration. She listens for what matters most, then proposes simple, doable strategies. Her aim is to help people move toward clearer choices and more satisfying daily routines.

How these approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, life transitions, and getting unstuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing thought and behavior patterns with practical exercises and homework to reduce symptoms like low mood, worry, and sleep disruption. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and aims to improve connection, boundaries, and communication in close relationships.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences, then suggest which approaches might fit best. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses to match your needs.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video can support longer, face-to-face conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging let you share thoughts between sessions or use brief exchanges on a tighter schedule. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and travel routines while keeping focus on practical skills and emotional progress.
