About Sharon
Sharon Clark is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with 22 years of practice. She helps people who are dealing with addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, grief, codependency, and other life stresses. Sharon draws on long experience outside the therapy world to relate to everyday problems and practical pressures.
She began therapy as a second career, so she brings perspectives from work and life into sessions. Sharon has worked with people affected by substance use and offers that background when it is relevant. Her approach is grounded in clear conversation and steady attention rather than clinical jargon.
In session she uses a mix of methods including cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, emotionally-focused work, and client-centered listening. That means she will notice patterns, help name feelings, and try tools that change how problems get handled day to day. Sessions tend to be straightforward and focused on what the person wants to change.
Sharon prefers video conferencing because it makes it easier to see facial cues and build rapport, but she can be flexible around appointments to fit work, school, or caregiving needs. If someone wants to ask about different ways to meet, she will discuss options and adjust to scheduling constraints.
Her work is practical and relational. She helps people find clearer boundaries, manage stress, address substance concerns, and make steps toward healthier connections and everyday coping.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values and taking action that fits what matters to the person. Online work with ACT can help when someone wants to live by clearer priorities despite painful thoughts or feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings connect and offers exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT techniques adapt well to video sessions where homework and skill practice are reviewed together. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to how relationships shape expectations and reactions; it is useful for people who want to understand patterns in close relationships and change how they relate.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as progress and preferences become clearer. Decisions about methods are collaborative and practical rather than fixed in advance.
The biography indicates Sharon prefers video conferencing and can be flexible around appointments to fit work or caregiving schedules. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time so appointments are simpler to keep. Licensed professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help people maintain steady contact with therapy while balancing other responsibilities.
