About Sharon
Sharon Calhoun is a licensed master social worker (LMSW) based in Michigan with 35 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and relationship difficulties. Her background includes focused work on blended family issues and attachment concerns.
Sharon uses straightforward, skills-based methods in sessions. She helps people sort through what is happening now and practice small changes that can reduce daily tension. Conversations often cover communication habits, boundaries, and coping strategies for strong emotions like anger and grief.
Her work draws on approaches such as attachment-based methods and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she looks at how past relationships shape current reactions and at what thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. Sessions also use motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas to set realistic steps forward.
With long experience across many adult life stages, Sharon is familiar with issues that touch family systems. She helps people dealing with blended household dynamics, separation and divorce, and parenthood stresses without taking sides. Practical problem solving and clearer communication are common goals.
Sharon asks clients to be ready to try exercises between sessions. Typical tasks include small behavior experiments, communication practice, and brief tracking of moods or urges. These concrete steps aim to build better habits and reduce recurring problems over time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based methods focus on how early relationships shape current reactions. In practice she helps people notice patterns in close relationships and try new ways of relating that reduce conflict and mistrust. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active. It uses manageable exercises and short behavior experiments to shift how someone thinks and acts in everyday situations.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past, then suggest methods to try. Decisions about which techniques to use are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

These practical benefits are often useful for people managing blended household schedules and ongoing parenting demands.
