About Shara
Shara Trumbull is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Tennessee with 25 years of experience. She focuses on common, practical problems people bring to therapy, such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and issues with anger.
Shara works with adults who want clearer thinking and steadier reactions in daily life. She talks through what happens in tense moments and helps people notice patterns that lead to snapping, shutting down, or avoidance. The first sessions typically look at recent triggers and immediate goals for calmer responses.
Her approach draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy. In practice that means she pays attention to how early relationships shape current reactions, and she centers the conversation on the client's perspective and priorities. Sessions move at a practical pace, with time for reflection and concrete steps to try between meetings.
Shara also addresses related concerns that often come with anger, including family stress, parenting strain, work tension, and grief. She helps clients practice clearer communication and boundary-setting so they can reduce repeated conflicts and resentment.
People who choose her often want straightforward support and tools they can use right away. She offers work that focuses on understanding patterns, shifting unhelpful habits, and building more reliable ways to handle strong feelings.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people respond to stress and to each other. Online sessions can focus on identifying those patterns and practicing different responses to reduce outbursts or withdrawal. Client-Centered Therapy makes the client's concerns and goals the guide; the therapist listens closely and helps the client steer the work toward practical changes.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Shara will work with clients to decide which methods fit best for the person's goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. That collaboration helps shape what happens session to session and what to try between meetings.
The practical benefits of working online include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into a workday or family routine. If you are considering online care, confirm the exact session formats offered before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. The focus remains on making therapy useful for everyday life and on helping clients build steadier ways of responding to anger and stress.
