About Sharron

Sharron Lewis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 24 years of experience helping people with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and sleeping problems. She uses straightforward, practical work to help clients feel steadier day to day. Her tone is warm and direct, and she focuses on clear goals and small steps that make a difference at home and work.

Sharron trained at the University of Washington and has experience in inpatient psychiatry, child welfare, community mental health, and hospital settings. She also spent more than a decade as Clinical Director of an intensive outpatient program, leading group and individual psychotherapy. That background informs how she structures sessions and supports people through crises and transitions.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and dialectical behavioral tools to change unhelpful patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas to help people notice thoughts and values, and to rebuild close connections. Mindfulness and body-oriented practice are part of how she helps clients improve sleep and reduce somatic tension.

Sessions focus on practical skills, increased body awareness, and creating a plan that matches each person's life. Clients and clinician set clear, attainable goals and track progress over time. Sharron aims to make the work feel manageable and relevant to daily routines.

She works from Louisiana and speaks English. If you want to explore concerns like addiction, grief, parenting strain, chronic illness, or career stress, she can help you clarify next steps and build coping strategies.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and focus on living according to their values. It can be useful when stress, anxiety, or grief keep someone from doing things that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to reduce worry, improve sleep, and change unhelpful habits. These methods are practical and skill based, which can adapt well to remote sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That means trying tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to a single formula.

Because the exact session formats for this therapist are not listed here, confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. It also lets therapists use worksheets, mindfulness exercises, and behavioral practice between meetings so skills transfer into everyday routines.
