Getting to know Sharon Myer

Welcome to my practice! I have a doctorate in Psychology, and I have spent the last 30 years working as a Mental Health Therapist. I am licensed to practice in Washington State, Arizona, Florida, and Missouri. I work with children, teens, and adults who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and grief and loss. My approach I use the therapeutic methods grounded in cognitive and behavioral therapies (behaviorism, CBT, DBT, and the Unified Protocol). The methods I employ are all backed by extensive research, which indicates the therapy is effective. My focus I work with children and adults, ages 6-99, who are managing anxiety, life transitions, depression, and those seeking support for self-esteem issues. Whether you’re working through trauma, building coping skills, or exploring your personal goals, I’ll work with you to create a growth plan that feels empowering and achievable. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient. My journey to mental healthcare Mental health therapy made a lot of sense to me when I started my training in cognitive and behavioral therapies (CBT, DBT, Unified Protocol, exposure therapies, trauma therapies, etc.). As I understood, situations trigger emotions, and this leads to triggering body sensations, automatic thoughts, and actions. I understood the power we have to manage our perceptions and thus the intensity of our emotional reactions. The human brain is resilient, and neuroplasticity offers us to change our thoughts and change our lives. My goals for you I believe that therapy is a partnership. Together, we’ll identify and set goals that matter to you, whether they focus on improving relationships, building self-esteem.
