Getting to know Shara McGlothan

Hi there, I'm Shara! My name is Shara McGlothan, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in Missouri and Kansas. I earned my Master's in Family Therapy from Friends University. I like to work from a collaborative approach, which means we work together. I provide a space for nurturing, reflection, accountability, and a drop of humor. I enjoy working with those experiencing internal and relational conflict, grief, and trauma. My approach I often view things through an Internal Family Systems (IFS) lens. I integrate this with Collaborative Language Systems, EMDR, Play Therapy, and other techniques to customize treatment to your specific needs. My focus I work with clients who often feel overwhelmed, tired, frustrated, and misunderstood. These feelings can lead to low self-esteem, relationship conflicts, high stress levels, or a loss of sense of Self. I help guide you in making sense of your experiences, leading to new perspectives that create space for new meaning or solutions that bring relief. Let me help you find clarity in your circumstances and tools to move forward. My communication style My goal is to create a warm, safe, and welcoming environment where clients can come in relaxed and unhurried. I provide space for clients to process at their own pace without feeling pressured to appease others. My journey to mental healthcare I am passionate about helping people build healthy relationships with themselves and others. I appreciate the opportunity to walk alongside others in their journey while modeling a healthy relationship in a safe environment. My goals for you Goals will be discussed periodically throughout treatment to ensure your needs are being met as life continues to shift. My first session with you During our first session, you can expect to finally have a space to be truly heard.
