About Sharon
Sharon Clark is an LCSW with over two decades of clinical experience who helps people facing addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, and stress. She also supports people coping with ADHD, bipolar mood issues, parenting strain, and career changes. Sharon speaks plainly and aims to make therapy feel practical and manageable for everyday life.
Her approach is warm and down-to-earth. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside cognitive and acceptance-based methods to help people identify strong emotions and learn new ways to respond.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and focused on real-life problems rather than jargon or long lectures. Sharon spent many years working with people affected by substance use and related challenges. That background informs her work with addiction and codependency concerns, and she aims to help clients build safer patterns and clearer boundaries.
She also works with issues rooted in family history, abandonment, and communication problems. In sessions she uses practical exercises, mindfulness tools, and cognitive strategies to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. She tailors methods to each person's situation, pacing work to what feels workable right now.
People can expect a collaborative process that balances support with skills practice. Sharon is based in Kentucky and offers sessions in English. Her experience in both clinical and nonclinical settings shapes a flexible, realistic style aimed at helping people manage life changes and rebuild connection where it has been strained.

Online support
Approaches for online emotional work
Sharon blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based ideas to help people understand feelings and build new patterns. EFT focuses on identifying and naming strong emotions and using that awareness to change how people respond to relationship and intimacy wounds. ACT teaches practical ways to notice thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with personal values. Attachment-based work looks at how early connection patterns shape current relationships and helps people rehearse safer ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sharon works collaboratively to see which methods fit a person's goals and situation, and she adjusts pace and techniques based on feedback. Clients decide together what feels most useful as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different needs. Video is useful for a fuller exchange and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to appear on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, journaling-style reflection, or flexible scheduling during busy days. These options aim to make it easier to keep therapy consistent within a busy life.
