About Sharon

Sharon Walsh is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 18 years of experience. She practices in New Hampshire and works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting challenges.

She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy as part of her approach and combines it with attachment-based thinking, cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused ideas. Sessions focus on naming feelings, noticing interaction patterns, and trying small changes to improve everyday life.

In practical terms Sharon helps people set clear goals and use strengths already in their lives. She often works with issues tied to family of origin, codependency, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care, and challenges around pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum depression. She also addresses career stress, compassion fatigue, and recovery concerns related to addiction.

Her style is straightforward. She helps people notice how they react under stress and then tries different ways of responding. That can mean learning mindfulness practices, testing new communication steps, or shifting negative thoughts with cognitive techniques.

Sharon asks clients to take an active role in planning sessions and tracking small changes between meetings. People looking for help with complicated grief, post-traumatic stress, or relationship patterns that feel stuck may find this practical focus useful.

Sessions are offered in English. International clients are not accepted, and session logistics should be confirmed before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on noticing emotions and the patterns they create in relationships. In online sessions this means naming feelings and practicing new emotional responses during conversations. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early connection patterns and how they show up now; sessions often involve identifying those patterns and trying new ways of reaching out or setting boundaries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, such as testing beliefs and practicing small behavioral experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sharon will help clients and therapists decide which methods to try based on the person’s goals, needs, and what feels practical. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to practice new communication steps or mindfulness skills from wherever quieter surroundings are available, and to use sessions for focused skill-building between in-person visits.
