About Sharon

Sharon Blanchard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who brings three decades of clinical and educational experience to her work.

Background and approach

She centers her practice on a client-centered stance that emphasizes careful listening and collaboration, helping people untangle patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting stress, and ADHD-related concerns. Her background includes school-based counseling in K-12 settings and teaching counseling at the graduate level, which informs a practical and developmentally aware approach to care.

Working with young adults and middle-age clients, Sharon helps individuals facing career crossroads, identity questions, grief, trauma, and life transitions. She invites clients to explore their values and, when relevant, the role of faith at a comfortable level, supporting each person’s preferences and goals.

Sharon’s style blends cognitive and narrative techniques with mindfulness and motivational strategies to foster insight, build coping skills, and encourage lasting change. Her practice emphasizes respect for each client’s context and strengths while guiding them through difficult decisions, parenting challenges, and emotional regulation concerns.

Sharon draws on 30 years of experience to create an atmosphere of focused attention and practical support as people work toward clearer understanding and healthier functioning.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches in Online Therapy



Sharon often uses client-centered therapy to create a warm, respectful space where the client’s perspective guides each session; this approach helps with building trust and clarifying personal goals. She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, and impulsivity-related concerns. Mindfulness-based techniques are woven in to teach present-moment awareness and grounding skills that reduce stress and support emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Sharon works with clients to explore which methods feel most helpful given their symptoms, life circumstances, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time as goals evolve. This flexibility helps tailor treatment to each person rather than applying a single method universally.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides practical convenience for scheduling around work, parenting, or school commitments. These formats allow continuity of care when in-person sessions are impractical, and they support consistent practice of skills between sessions through ongoing messaging and brief check-ins with licensed professionals.
