About LaSharta
LaSharta Pearson is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience helping people face stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions. She brings practical care and steady support to people who want clear tools and real change. Her work is rooted in positive affirmation and a belief that steady effort produces growth.
She adapts sessions to each person's needs, goals, and pace. Sessions focus on building skills, noticing patterns, and taking small steps that lead to better daily functioning.
Background and approach
Her background includes time in the US Air Force and work as a corrections officer, experiences she says shaped her calm, grounded approach. Clients can expect straightforward conversations and skill practice drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Mindfulness and acceptance strategies are used to help manage intense feelings like anger or panic.
LaSharta also values emotionally-focused, client-centered methods when addressing relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Her work includes support for those dealing with depression, bipolar mood challenges, addictions, caregiver stress, and workplace problems. She pays attention to co-occurring issues and helps people break concerns into manageable steps.
Communication and commitment issues are common topics in her sessions. LaSharta emphasizes strength and self-compassion while offering realistic, hands-on techniques. She often suggests brief practices that fit into busy days.
Her aim is practical progress people can notice between sessions.

Approaches that fit online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help people who feel stuck or who want clearer direction during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches small experiments to reduce anxiety, panic, or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication in stressful moments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will partner with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That collaboration means techniques can be adjusted over time based on what helps most in day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and texting are useful for quick support, brief coaching, and following up on daily practice. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy schedule.
