Sharon Clark , LCSW

Sharon Clark is a licensed clinical social worker with more than two decades of experience. She focuses on common concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, and relationship and intimacy issues. Sharon also supports people dealing with parenting stress, grief, career setbacks, and attention-related challenges. She lists Women's issues among her areas of focus and brings practical life experience to sessions.

Sharon came to therapy as a second career, so she pairs clinical skills with real-world perspective. Conversations are straightforward and down-to-earth. She aims to help people make small, useful changes that fit day-to-day life rather than long lists of abstract tasks.

Her approach blends several proven methods. Sharon uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts, and acceptance-based strategies to build tolerance for difficult feelings. Attachment-focused and emotionally-focused ideas help when relationships and closeness are at the center of concern.

Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, with video as a preferred way to connect when possible. Sharon notes flexibility for scheduling to fit work, school, or medical appointments. She practices in Kentucky and offers services in English.

People who choose Sharon can expect practical guidance, options for different session formats, and an emphasis on workable steps. Her long experience includes substance abuse counseling and many years helping adults navigate family of origin issues, grief, and major life changes.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Sharon often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Acceptance and commitment therapy focuses on noticing feelings without fighting them and clarifying personal values to guide action, which can help with trauma, chronic stress, and life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon will talk with each person about problems and goals, try a few methods, and adjust work to fit what feels most helpful. The plan changes as progress is made so therapy can stay relevant to the client's needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people see nonverbal cues and have longer sessions, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support quick check-ins or brief sessions between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, appointments, and daily life while keeping the focus on practical skills and emotional work.
