About Sharon

Sharon Green is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey with 17 years of experience in behavioral health. She takes a whole-person view that considers how emotional, physical, and spiritual factors interact during recovery, and she adapts care to meet each client's particular needs and preferences.

Background and approach

Sharon emphasizes individualized plans rather than one-size-fits-all protocols, bringing a practical, compassionate orientation to work with trauma, grief, depression, career concerns, and coaching needs. Her background includes a range of clinical methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), attachment-based techniques, client-centered work, emotionally-focused approaches, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing.

This blend supports clients coping with complex situations including abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, substance-related concerns, relationship and family problems, and difficulties tied to aging or life transitions. Sharon aims to help people develop clearer thinking patterns, stronger emotional awareness, and more effective coping skills to move forward from painful experiences.

She accepts clients in English and is open to working with international clients. Sharon offers diverse session formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences while tailoring therapeutic goals to each person's circumstances.

Practical therapy approaches for online care

Sharon integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based work into her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete tools for managing depression, anxiety, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Attachment-based therapy attends to relational patterns and emotional bonds, helping people understand how past relationships shape current reactions and close connections.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the collaborative process. Sharon will work with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adapting methods over time so the plan fits evolving needs rather than assuming a single path up front.

Online therapy with Sharon is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which supports flexible scheduling and access from different locations. These options allow clients to practice skills between sessions, check in more frequently when helpful, and maintain continuity of care regardless of distance.
