About June

June Sharkey is a Nevada-based licensed clinical social worker who brings 20 years of practice to conversations about stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, self-esteem, and depression. She uses clear, practical guidance and adapts sessions to each person's situation. Her approach is straightforward and respectful.

She aims to make starting therapy easier for people feeling unsure or overwhelmed. June leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help clients notice patterns and build useful skills.

How June works

CBT is used to break unhelpful thinking cycles and set small, manageable goals. DBT offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving daily coping skills. In sessions she focuses on problem-solving and skill practice rather than long lectures.

Conversations are collaborative: she listens, reflects, and suggests exercises to try between meetings. Parents can expect concrete strategies for handling everyday stressors and improving confidence. Her style is warm and patient, aimed at people who want clear steps and practical change.

Treatment plans are individualized and adjusted over time. June emphasizes steady progress and celebrates small wins along the way. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions.

The process is designed to move from an initial plan to regular check-ins that fit each person’s needs and goals.

CBT and DBT for online support

June uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that ease stress and anxiety. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and homework to practice between meetings.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. DBT techniques can be useful when feelings feel intense or overwhelming and when practical strategies are needed to get through stressful moments.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, then suggest a plan to try. Sessions can be adjusted over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make shorter exchanges and written skill coaching possible between full sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while still practicing the techniques discussed in sessions.
