About Sharon

Sharon Salichs is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who speaks Spanish. She draws on client-centered and solution-focused ideas to help people handle stress, anxiety, grief, and major life transitions. Sharon aims for straightforward, practical conversations so people can start feeling steadier in day-to-day life.

She has a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in professional counseling from the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico. Sharon has eight years of experience working in mental health settings, where she provided individual therapy and crisis support.

Her practice addresses a broad set of concerns, including self-esteem, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, anger, bipolar challenges, and ADHD. She also helps with caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and issues like guilt, shame, and forgiveness.

Sharon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy tools alongside client-centered and solution-focused techniques. In sessions she helps people identify unhelpful thoughts, try small changes, and retell difficult experiences in ways that reduce their hold on daily life.

Sessions are offered in Spanish as well as English. Prospective clients should use the site process to start matching and to learn about current session options and scheduling details.

How Sharon’s approaches translate to online therapy

Sharon commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and responding to what the person brings, which helps build trust and clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors, helping people try small, testable changes to reduce anxiety or lift mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Sharon will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can also reduce travel time and make regular check-ins more feasible. Session format details are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking to see what formats are offered and how they might fit into everyday routines.
