Getting to know Sharon Badon

Hi there, I'm Sharon! Greetings! My name is Sharon Badon, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Nevada, Reno. My clinical approach to therapy is person-centered, and my therapeutic style in session is multidimensional. My approach In my practice, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). My approach to therapy is always person-centered. My focus I typically work with individuals who are struggling with adjustment issues, stress, anxiety, and depression. My communication style I am here to empower and encourage my clients to prioritize their well-being. I am also here to listen, reflect, and provide constructive feedback. My journey to mental healthcare I have been in the field of social services since I graduated with my undergraduate degree in 1992. I began my clinical work in 2006 when I completed my graduate degree. Throughout my career, I have worked with many people, and I enjoy assisting them in overcoming challenges and recognizing their growth and evolution in their individual recovery. My goals for you I believe the individual will steer the direction of therapy and find self-discovery through therapeutic guidance, encouragement, and support. My first session with you During the first session, I typically complete a behavioral health assessment, a Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), and a Generalized Anxiety Disorder questionnaire (GAD-7). I also incorporate crisis planning with my clients to ensure adequate coping skills and supports are in place.
