About Sharon

Sharon Green is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 17 years of experience. She focuses on trauma and abuse, grief, career concerns, depression, and coaching. She also addresses problems related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, aging, attachment issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and codependency.

Sharon uses straightforward methods that help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered and emotionally-focused approaches. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of how she works when they fit a person's goals.

In sessions she tends to work in a practical, step-by-step way. That can include identifying patterns that keep problems going, testing different responses, and using short exercises between meetings. People who prefer clear structure and concrete tools often find this useful.

She has experience with a wide range of life challenges including divorce and separation, domestic violence, addiction, eating concerns, communication problems, and coping after disasters. Sharon also supports people dealing with older-adult issues and the stresses of caregiving.

Sharon asks clients to be active collaborators in setting goals and trying strategies. She adapts the mix of CBT, attachment-focused ideas, and client-centered listening to what someone needs. New clients are guided through a brief intake and scheduling process to begin work together.

How Sharon uses therapeutic approaches in online work

Sharon relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into smaller parts so someone can try different ways of responding and measure what works. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it is useful for people dealing with abandonment or attachment concerns.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes clear listening and support while clients decide their goals. With this approach she focuses on what the client wants to change and collaborates on practical steps. Deciding which method to use is part of the work; she will review goals and preferences with each person and pick techniques together rather than imposing a single method.

The biography does not specify exact online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. Video can let a person use visual cues, while phone sessions may be simpler when bandwidth or a quieter environment is needed. The therapist and client will agree on the format that best fits goals and daily life.
