About Sharon
Sharon Williamson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Sharon uses practical methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, and solution-focused techniques.
Her background includes a bachelor’s degree from the University of South Florida and a graduate degree from Argosy University. Over her career she has worked with individuals, adolescents, and families in a variety of settings. That range gives her experience with common life problems and transitions.
In sessions she focuses on noticing thoughts and patterns that get in the way. She helps people test new ways of responding and practicing small changes between meetings. Conversations tend to be straightforward and goal oriented, with clear steps to try at home.
Sharon aims to build on the skills a person already has. She uses client-centered listening to understand each person’s concerns, then draws on CBT and solution-focused methods to set short term goals and practical tasks. Progress is reviewed regularly so plans can change if something isn’t working.
Sessions are conducted in English and are based in Georgia. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
How her approaches translate to online work
Sharon draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different reactions. CBT is practical - it breaks problems into specific thoughts, behaviors, and feelings, and then sets exercises to try between sessions. Client-centered therapy provides time for a person to tell their story without interruption, which helps identify what matters most to them.She also uses solution-focused techniques that focus on small, achievable steps toward clear goals. Together these methods make sessions action oriented. Sharon will work with each person to decide which approach or mix of approaches fits their needs and goals, and she adjusts plans based on progress and preference.
The available session formats are not specified in the source biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life - for example, shorter check-ins can fit into a lunch break, and audio-only calls can help when video isn’t convenient. Licensed professionals generally use online sessions to help people practice skills in real life and to keep consistent appointments without long travel times.
