I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Florida and have worked in the profession for over 40 years. I have enjoyed my work with all populations over the years and find it rewarding to be an instrument of change in the lives of others. I use an eclectic approach as each situation will require flexibility and a more personal plan.
I am a great listener and communicator. I have a passion for children and families as its important to recognize and change destructive generational cycles. I have a great understanding of the impact of all forms of abuse on an individual's life and I am able to walk on that journey with anyone who has been affected.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
It will be my pleasure to work with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sharon Mortimer. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Sharon has always been prompt and concise in breaking things down and providing effective advice that enables me to understand my internal conflicts and move pass them in a graceful manner.
Almost year with her and I’ve brought down my weekly therapy sessions to just once in 6 months, which I see as a huge win.
And there have been steadily-built wins in my life as well - from holding my boundaries, losing weight, to managing interpersonal relationships. Every facet of my life is going upward now, and it all started because I sought help and spent 10 months having weekly chats with Sharon.

Sharon listened to my concerns and guided me thoughtfully back to the center when I strayed too far afield. She acted as a good sounding board, carefully considering what I said before jumping in to offer advice. I had a very good experience and would go this route again when and if I ever need to.

Sharon has been so helpful and instrumental to my life and well-being.
I'm not a great talker - but I have felt so comfortable and she extracts so much and identifies the cause of my issues.
Thank you Sharon you're amazing.

Over the past few months, Sharon has helped me to overcome challenges I was facing in my life now that were rooted in childhood issues. It is obvious she has lots of expertise in this area and has given me the tools to continue practice in to my life now. Would highly recommend.

Hi Sharon :) The help and support I get from you is very helpful. It is very nice to have someone to "talk" to, who has the knowledge, insight and who helps me to sort my thoughts out, in my difficult situation. I am so grateful for the support I have got from you, so far.
