About Sharon
Sharon Bryant is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 30 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and self-esteem struggles. Sharon aims to make first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful.
She uses a cognitive behavior approach to help people notice how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. That work often leads to small, practical changes people can try between sessions.
How Sharon works
Sharon also uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and solution-focused methods to set clear, doable goals. Sessions are conversational and down-to-earth. Sharon emphasizes a nonjudgmental space where people can talk about difficult emotions and sensitive topics.
She encourages clients to identify strengths they already have and to build on them slowly. Sharon has supported people through life transitions such as divorce, midlife shifts, grief after loss, postpartum adjustment, and workplace stress. She has long experience addressing substance use and sleep problems, as well as loneliness and issues related to aging.
Her background includes three decades of clinical work in Georgia. Sharon offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. She works with each person to find practical steps that fit their daily life.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability. Sharon’s approach is steady and pragmatic, focused on realistic change over time.

How Sharon brings practical approaches to online therapy
Sharon commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; that approach is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood disorders. She also uses motivational interviewing, which focuses on drawing out a person’s own motivations for change and can be especially helpful for addictions and ambivalence about making changes. Solution-focused therapy is part of her work too, concentrating on setting small, concrete goals and building on what already works.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon works with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan if something is not working. She emphasizes practical steps and follows the client’s pace while helping them test new strategies between sessions.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper interaction, phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for quick check-ins or ongoing support between live conversations. These formats increase flexibility and help people maintain continuity of care across changing schedules.
