Sharon Nunez , LCSW

Sharon Nunez is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience helping people through stressful and painful life moments. She practices in New York and focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, and navigating big life changes. Sharon pays close attention to how women's experiences and midlife transitions shape emotional needs.

Her work centers on helping people find clearer ways to cope. Sharon listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps clients try different ways of responding. She also gives practical tools for managing stress and strong emotions.

Sharon often supports people dealing with family conflict, communication breakdowns, and the fallout of divorce or separation. She also addresses caregiver strain, aging concerns, and fertility-related stress. These areas are handled in straightforward, step-by-step conversations.

People who come to Sharon for help with chronic illness or disability get practical strategies for daily life and emotional care. She also works with issues like body image, isolation, and finding life purpose. Her approach balances realistic problem solving with attention to personal meaning.

Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Costs vary with location and availability and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to the therapist's availability.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Sharon draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. This helps people who are stuck in worry or negative self-talk to try different responses and see what works.

Another common strand in her work centers on improving communication and problem solving within family relationships. This involves breaking down interactions into clear steps, practicing new ways to speak and listen, and setting manageable goals for change. It is useful for parenting stress, divorce-related issues, and family of origin concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they adjust methods over time so the plan fits the client's needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging can fit into busy days and allow ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to arrange regular appointments around work, caregiving, and other obligations.
