About Sharon

Sharon Green is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey with 17 years of experience in behavioral health. She works with people facing trauma and abuse, grief, career questions, depression, and coaching around life transitions. Sharon focuses on practical steps and steady conversation rather than lofty promises.

Her approach centers on treating the whole person. She uses methods from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), and mindfulness to help people name what they’re feeling and test new ways of coping. Sessions tend to be collaborative and paced to the individual.

Sharon often helps people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, and attachment difficulties. She also supports those navigating blended family concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, and the effects of divorce or separation. She has experience with substance use, domestic violence, eating-related concerns, and coping after natural or human-caused disasters.

Over her career she has worked with men and women and with active military personnel and veterans. Her work includes grief and end-of-life issues tied to aging and geriatric concerns, and practical career or coaching conversations when life shifts require new plans.

People who choose Sharon can expect straightforward conversation, attention to past relationships that shape current feelings, and tools from CBT and mindfulness to manage distress. To get started, follow the site's onboarding to match and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Sharon draws on attachment-based work to examine how early relationships influence current feelings and patterns. That approach helps when guilt or shame links back to family roles, adoption or abandonment experiences, and recurring relational patterns.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT offers concrete skills for managing depressive thoughts, intrusive memories, or persistent self-blame. Mindfulness practice is another tool she brings in to help people notice difficult emotions without being swept away by them, which can make intense guilt or grief easier to tolerate for a moment at a time.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences, and past attempts at help to decide which methods to focus on. That collaborative process adapts as a person notices what helps and what does not.

Confirm session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life - for example, keeping appointments on a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or choosing a shorter check-in when energy is limited. Licensed professionals also adjust pacing and techniques so sessions work well over distance and match each person’s practical needs.
