Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care

Sharon Mortimer uses an eclectic style and often draws from approaches that work well in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore what they are feeling and what they want to change, which can be especially helpful when stress, self-esteem concerns, or relationship challenges feel overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical approach that looks at how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence each other. It can help clients notice unhelpful patterns and experiment with new ways of responding to anxiety, depressed mood, or everyday pressures. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and handling conflict more effectively, which can be useful when life feels reactive or hard to regulate.

Finding the right method is part of the process. Sharon works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and current challenges, then adjusts the plan as therapy unfolds so it stays relevant and workable.

Online therapy also offers flexibility. Sessions can happen through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to get support in a format that fits your schedule, comfort level, and day-to-day demands.
