About Sharon
Sharon Salichs is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with eight years of clinical experience. She speaks Spanish and works with people coping with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and anger. Sharon also supports those facing life changes, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and caregiver strain.
She trained at the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico, earning a bachelor’s in psychology and a master’s in professional counseling. That education shaped her practical focus on talking through problems and building straightforward skills. She draws on a few evidence-informed methods to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors.
In sessions Sharon uses Client-Centered techniques to listen and reflect, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, Narrative Therapy to reframe personal stories, and Solution-Focused methods to set reachable goals. These approaches are used to address things like impulsivity, guilt, isolation, and anger that shows up at home or work.
Her style is direct and pragmatic. She helps clients practice specific strategies in session and then apply them between meetings. Examples include brief behavioral experiments, thought records, and small communication skills to reduce tension and improve interactions.
Sharon offers care from Florida and provides services in Spanish. She does not accept international clients. Before booking, confirm the current session formats offered and any logistical questions through the platform’s scheduling flow.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Sharon commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT involves identifying thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce stress, anxiety, and angry reactions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on reflective listening and helping people clarify what matters to them.She also draws on Narrative Therapy to look at the stories people tell about themselves and to reframe those stories when they contribute to shame, guilt, or ongoing conflict. Narrative work can help with grief, social anxiety, and problems that feel stuck because of one dominant life story.
Choosing the right approach is part of the first few sessions. Sharon collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as needed. The aim is practical: try something, see if it helps, and refine it together.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit work on anger and emotion regulation into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Talk with Sharon during the matching and scheduling steps about the session length and setup that best fits your routine.
