About Sharon

Dr. Sharon Myers is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 15 years of professional experience. She works with adults on relationship concerns, self-esteem and confidence, depression, coping with life changes, and anger. She also addresses stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, and career or coaching questions.

Myers frames sessions as direct conversations about what is happening now. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating. Then she helps people try different ways of responding to stressful situations. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can test between meetings.

Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people notice triggers, manage strong emotions, and rebuild trust in relationships. Work can include skills practice, planning small behavior changes, and reviewing what worked or didn’t.

Dr. Myers also supports people dealing with midlife transitions, caregiver strain, body image concerns, forgiveness, and issues tied to aging. She addresses guilt, shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Sessions are conducted in English from California. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin.

How sessions work

Evidence-based methods and online work

Dr. Myers uses a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address emotion regulation and relationship patterns. One common approach focuses on recognizing and interrupting automatic reactions - learning to spot triggers and choose different responses. This helps with anger, stress, and repeated conflict in relationships.

Another approach emphasizes skills training and behavioral experiments. Clients try small, specific changes between sessions and then review what happened. That process helps people see what works in real life and adjust their plans accordingly.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. The therapist and client look at goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That collaborative step guides which techniques are used and how sessions are structured.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also lets people attend from different locations while keeping regular meeting times that match their schedule.
