About Sharon

Sharon Salichs is a Florida-based Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who integrates cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and narrative approaches to help people manage emotional and life challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on eight years of clinical experience and graduate training in professional counseling to support clients facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and related concerns such as self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Her practice also addresses a wide range of focused issues including parenting stress, caregiver concerns, anger, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, compassion fatigue, communication problems, divorce and separation, and struggles with guilt, shame, or isolation.

Fluent in Spanish, she offers services that reflect sensitivity to cultural and linguistic needs while using evidence-informed methods like CBT to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Sharon emphasizes a collaborative therapeutic relationship that blends practical strategies with opportunities to explore personal narratives and strengths.

Prospective clients in Florida can expect a professional approach grounded in training and experience, with session options designed to fit varied schedules and preferences.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Sharon draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and experiment with new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and problem-solving. She also uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients explore feelings and personal goals, and she employs narrative therapy to help people reframe and make sense of difficult life events and transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon works with each person to clarify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and she adjusts techniques over time so therapy aligns with changing needs and progress.

Online therapy in her practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for scheduling and communication style. These options can make it easier to access care around work, family commitments, or mobility constraints, while allowing therapists to apply CBT exercises, reflective conversation, and narrative work in formats that fit day-to-day life.
