Getting to know Sharon Hill-Anderson
Hi there, I'm Sharon!
My name is Sharon Hill-Anderson. I am an LMFT with a Master's in Psychology from the University of Massachusetts Global. I like to meet the client where they are, and currently, my focus of practice is mental health crisis.
My approach
My approach is eclectic. I use CBT, Strategic, Brief therapy, Solution-focused, and sometimes a combination. It just depends on the client and the situation.
My focus
Currently, I typically work with clients in a mental health crisis. Many times I see clients who are suicidal with a plan or experiencing extreme anxiety or depression causing the inability to function. I would very much like to work with mild to moderate anxiety or depression as well.
My communication style
I try to create a calm and comforting environment-a place where the client can express themselves without fear of judgment.
My journey to therapy
After a life of working in retail and wholesale sales, I wanted something that made me feel like I was making a difference, so I went back to school in my 40s. I didn't know I wanted to be a therapist, but as I was taking classes, it became clear I enjoyed psychology and liked working with people. Many years later, here I am. I love helping people become the best they can be in life or sometimes just getting through a rough patch. It warms my heart to watch someone who is a bundle of nerves take a few deep breaths or do a quick grounding exercise and become visibly calmer and surprised they can suddenly think again. It's rewarding when a client returns to thank you for being there for them.
My goals for you
I ask what you want to achieve and how a perfect world would look for you, then discuss the steps you might need to take to get there.
My first session with you
You should expect a listening ear and questions to discover who you are and what you want to work on.
