Hello! My name is Sharon Clark and I have 20+ years as a therapist. Therapy is a second career for me, so I have the benefit of offering some helpful information about navigating the "real world," and hopefully, you'll learn my experience is not straight out of the textbooks! Over the past years, I have worked with a very diverse population that struggle with unique perspectives on therapy and how it works. I have also worked as a substance abuse counselor if that is area you want to get help with. I can interact with you in whatever manner you choose, but video conferencing is my personal preference as it gives you the opportunity to get to know me and vice versa. I can be flexible to help accommodate your work schedule, school, doctor's appointments etc.

Hey folks!I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, Mental Health Service Provider in Tennessee. My passion for therapy began after realizing I was helping many clients with the similar concerns related to identity confusion, limited self-awareness, and low self-confidence.

There just aren’t enough hours in the week! My therapy style is warm, supportive, interactive, validating, and empowering. I utilize a client-centered, cognitive behavioral therapy approach with a solution focused perspective, and have training and extensive experience in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), and rational emotive behavioral therapy ( REBT) As a conscientious therapist it is important to me to provide a safe, non-judgmental, therapeutic environment, and treat everyone with respect, compassion, and unconditional positive regard. I offer a style and approach that best fits the needs of each individual, and partner with each individual to create a treatment plan with specific goals and objectives that meet specific needs. Life is pretty complex and sometimes presents us with challenges that require support and therapeutic interventions to achieve balance and overall wellness. Congratulations to you for your courage, and on your decision to seek empowerment and enhance your current emotional well-being.

Hello! I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over 7 years of experience. I graduated from Lindsay Wilson College in Kentucky with a Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling. My professional experience includes working at a Community Mental Health Center and the Veterans Health Administration. I believe that treatment should be guided by the client using a person centered approach to evidence based treatment. I am experienced in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, personality disorders and insomnia. I can be eclectic in my approach but I am most inclined to use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or Solution Focused Therapy to treat depression or anxiety and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia to treat sleep issues. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy can help you learn to manage your emotions. I believe that therapy should be focused with goals that assist in measuring progress and have a limited number of sessions. I can do live sessions in the evening and all day on Saturday and Sunday. I will always respond to messages within 12 hours (likely sooner.) I look forward to working with you! I can’t wait to meet you!

I am a licensed psychologist and therapist with over 25 years of clinical experience. As a PhD clinical psychologist, I have a comprehensive education in mental health and ongoing relevant training. For those exploring therapy for the first time -- welcome! For others, welcome back! Therapy involves talking honestly about yourself in private. Some thoughts or feelings you may have been kept to yourself — maybe for a long time. But in sharing your ‘inner-self’, your burden lightens a bit. Together, we can begin to understand your life better. Your life can move forward. It can regains its meaning. You can begin to build a life worth living. For some clients, the approach is more educational. You may learn new skills. Therapy is not always deeply exploring your past, but I will always ask about your past and upbringing. Each client is different. My therapy approach can differ too. Therapy sessions typically last a little less than an hour. I prefer to meet in video sessions. I find that meeting every week maintains continuity and momentum. We can message each other between sessions through the BetterHelp platform. Online therapy is as effective as traditional therapy. It can provide easier and more private access to a therapist and more flexible scheduling. However, while BetterHelp usually costs less than some others therapies, it is still not cheap. Is it worth it? I suggest you try a few sessions (maybe 2-3) and then decide. You may decide that the longer term cost over, say, 3 months or even longer is simply too much. But as with anything involving money, you should understand the details of your agreement. The introductory offers can differ situation to situation. I am not involved with this aspect of the program and will refer you to others within BH who handle that. Finally, therapy is not a quick fix. It is not easy. Making lasting life change may take several months — or for a few, many months. But I won't push for more sessions than necessary. My goal is for you to lead a life without therapy. We will not attempt to fix everything, but I think that together we can make many things better.
