About Sharon
Sharon Nielsen is an Ohio LPCC with 10 years of clinical experience working with adults. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, and low self-esteem. Sharon often sees people who struggle with attachment, codependency, family conflict, and problems saying no.
She explains things in simple terms and focuses on concrete coping skills. Sessions often look at how past relationships shape current patterns. Sharon helps people notice repeated responses - like people-pleasing, avoiding conflict, or staying in stressful relationships - and practices alternatives together.
Her work includes stabilizing strong emotions and building practical routines that reduce overwhelm. She supports those coping with grief, separation, workplace stress, and impulsive behaviors. Sharon also addresses guilt, shame, and questions about purpose that come up after big life changes.
Sharon describes her approach as based in evidence-based therapeutic techniques. That means sessions blend skills practice with attention to personal history and relationships. She looks at how attachment and abandonment concerns affect daily choices and relationships.
Conversations in sessions are direct and focused. Sharon helps clients set small, achievable goals and track progress over time. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the online options button.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques mean using methods that teach skills and look at relationship patterns. One common evidence-based method focuses on teaching emotion regulation and coping skills; this helps people manage strong feelings like anger, anxiety, or overwhelm and practice steadying techniques during stressful moments. Another approach looks at attachment and relational patterns, examining how early relationships influence current behavior and helping people try different responses in relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick techniques that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean starting with practical skills, then shifting to deeper work on attachment or past trauma as trust and readiness develop.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available online options before booking. Many people appreciate online sessions because they make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. The therapist uses these approaches to help clients apply what they learn in everyday life and to make sessions workable around other responsibilities.
