About Sharolyn

Dr. Sharolyn Wallace is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oklahoma with 31 years of clinical experience. She focuses on family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, self-esteem, and coping with life changes, including blended family issues.

She helps people talk through family conflicts and parenting stress in plain terms. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and building steadier routines at home. She also addresses trauma-related reactions and the impact of past hurts on daily life.

Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. Conversations are designed to identify patterns that cause friction and to try new ways of handling tense moments. She pays attention to how loyalty conflicts, step-parent roles, and ex-partner communication affect household rhythms.

Dr. Wallace draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide interventions. That means using methods that have research support to reduce symptoms and improve coping. She works at a pace the client prefers and adjusts plans as needs change.

Practical matters such as parenting arrangements, caregiver stress, and communication problems are common topics. She also addresses attachment concerns, abandonment issues, and the emotional fallout from divorce or separation. People who want concrete tools for daily life often find this format useful.

How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions

Dr. Wallace uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address family and trauma-related issues. One common approach focuses on practical skills for communication and problem-solving, helping people change interactions that cause daily stress. Another approach targets trauma-related reactions by teaching grounding and coping strategies to reduce distress and improve functioning.

Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Plans are adjusted over time based on how well a method fits the person's needs and daily life demands.

Confirm current session formats before booking, since the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, for example allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. It can also permit audio-only options when a video call would be difficult, or allow regular appointments that keep momentum between in-person visits. Talk with the therapist about scheduling and format preferences so sessions match practical constraints and goals.
