Sharon Holmberg

Sharon Holmberg is an LCSW with 28 years of professional experience. She supports people managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Sharon emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and a calm approach that helps people feel heard and understood.

She focuses on practical, down-to-earth conversations that address what is happening now. Sharon tailors discussion and the plan to each person’s needs. That might mean working on coping skills, rebuilding confidence, or processing upsetting events at a steady pace.

Her background includes nearly three decades of clinical practice in Mississippi. That experience informs how she notices patterns in mood, panic, and post-traumatic stress, and how she helps people break them into manageable steps. She also brings experience supporting caregiver stress, communication problems, and the emotional fallout of divorce and separation.

Sharon pays attention to the role of guilt, shame, and isolation in people’s stories. She helps people work toward self-love, forgiveness, and clearer life purpose when those areas feel stuck. Sessions move at a pace each person can handle, with practical suggestions and space to talk through hard feelings.

People who want a compassionate, experienced therapist for anxiety, mood concerns, or women’s issues can expect focused, respectful support. Sharon encourages people to take small steps toward change and offers steady guidance along the way.

How evidence-based work can fit into online therapy

Sharon describes her practice as grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear problem solving and symptom relief. One common approach is skill-building for anxiety and panic - teaching breathing, grounding, and short behavioral experiments to reduce sudden symptoms and increase confidence. Another key approach is trauma-informed processing, which involves pacing discussions, naming the impact of upsetting events, and creating steps to lessen day-to-day distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try options that match your needs, then adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process helps people find methods that feel practical and sustainable.

Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Because session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm current options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to keep consistent appointments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let conversations happen from a familiar setting. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques like breathing exercises and grounding to work well in remote formats, while keeping the focus on regular progress and real-world coping skills.
