About Sharon

Sharon Jordan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and the fallout from trauma. She also supports clients facing grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and struggles with self-esteem or addictions. Her tone in sessions is warm and respectful, aiming to make difficult conversations easier to start.

Sharon draws on 11 years of experience in both direct therapy and family stabilization work.

Background and approach

Before becoming a clinician she spent six years in a behavior modification program that worked with families under severe stress. That background shapes her practical focus on safety and steady, realistic progress. Her style is client-centered and strengths-based.

She uses evidence-informed tools and adapts them to each person’s goals. In practice that means clarifying what matters most, building small, doable skills, and checking in on what’s working. Therapeutic approaches include acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and dialectical behavior strategies.

These are used to address intense emotions, unhelpful thinking patterns, and relationship difficulties in concrete ways. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Sharon emphasizes dignity and compassion while helping people develop coping plans, set boundaries, and reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life.

She welcomes conversations about adoption and foster care, multicultural concerns, ADHD, and other listed focuses. People who choose her often want practical tools alongside empathetic support. Sharon encourages clients to take one small step at a time and helps them track progress toward clearer, more manageable routines and relationships.

How specific approaches are used in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions that match their values. It can reduce struggle with difficult emotions by teaching ways to notice thoughts and choose values-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that keep problems going. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention and present-moment awareness, which helps with stress, impulsive reactions, and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is a team effort. Sharon will work together with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques when something isn't helping or when new priorities emerge.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for deeper, face-to-face work and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging can help with quick coaching, brief reflections, or to stay connected between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep steady momentum toward personal goals.
