About Sharon
Sharon Calhoun is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker practicing in Michigan with 35 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship struggles, anger, and related concerns. Sharon focuses on practical, real-world help when life feels stuck after change or loss.
She draws on decades of clinical work across many life stages, from younger adults to older adults. In sessions she listens for patterns that keep people stuck, such as attachment wounds, codependency, or family-of-origin problems. She also addresses problems like abandonment, blended family issues, fatherhood concerns, and aging-related questions.
Sharon uses approaches such as attachment-based work, cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, solution-focused steps, and trauma-focused methods. That mix lets her combine short-term problem solving with attention to deeper emotional patterns. Conversations often move between current practical goals and past experiences that shape today's reactions.
Sessions are paced to fit what a person needs. Some meetings focus on building specific skills for anxiety or anger. Others look at relationship communication and boundaries. When addiction or domestic violence are present, she addresses safety and concrete next steps alongside emotional work.
People who are unsure what comes next after a job change, separation, health change, or loss often contact her to sort priorities. She asks clear questions, suggests small experiments, and helps people notice what matters most now.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at the ways early relationships shape current expectations and reactions. In plain terms, it helps people understand why they may pull away, cling, or react strongly in relationships and what might change those patterns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear tools to test unhelpful beliefs, reduce anxiety, and change behaviors that maintain problems like depression or anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sharon will discuss goals, past efforts, and daily constraints to decide whether attachment work, CBT, motivational interviewing, or trauma-focused methods best fit a client’s needs. That decision is collaborative and may shift over time as priorities change.
The practical benefit of online sessions is that they can fit into a weekday routine more easily, reduce travel time, and allow quicker follow-ups after a challenging day. Because the original biography did not list specific session formats, confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people use remote sessions to maintain momentum between in-person appointments or to fit therapy into parenting, work, or medical schedules.
