About Sharon

Sharon Esters is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who draws on six years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and a wide range of relational and identity-related concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes a strengths-based, culturally aware approach that respects each person's background and life story while offering practical tools for coping, communication, and emotional regulation. Her practice addresses a broad set of issues including addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar symptoms, anger, and challenges around self-esteem, intimacy, and family interactions.

Sharon also attends to specialized areas such as body image, codependency, commitment and control issues, caregiver stress, and concerns connected to alternative sexual cultures. She blends empathic listening with structured interventions to support clients working through transitions, grief, or persistent patterns that limit day-to-day functioning.

Sharon uses evidence-informed methods tailored to individual needs, aiming to foster clearer thinking, healthier routines, and more effective interpersonal skills. She frames therapy as a collaborative process that honors clients' values and goals while helping them build strategies for long-term wellbeing.

Approaches for remote care and practical change

Sharon uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client's priorities guide the work; this approach helps people clarify values, strengthen self-understanding, and build motivation for change. She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with practical skills that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process. Sharon collaborates with clients to match methods to their goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made so care remains relevant and personalized.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care during life transitions or busy periods, while still allowing therapists to teach skills, track progress, and support clients between live sessions.
