About Sharon
Sharon Campbell is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, and relationship and intimacy concerns. Sharon aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where people can begin to make changes that matter.
Sharon uses a narrative approach to help people separate themselves from their problems and rewrite the stories that hold them back.
Background and approach
She pairs that with attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape reactions today. Sessions are also influenced by client-centered principles so people set the pace and focus of the work. Practical skills from cognitive behavioral therapy are offered when useful, for things like sleep, impulse control, or mood shifts.
Dialectical behavior therapy tools can be used to improve emotion regulation and manage intense states. Sharon adapts methods to match each person’s needs rather than following one fixed plan. She has worked with blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and issues like abandonment, attachment struggles, and communication breakdowns.
Sharon also supports people dealing with addictions, bipolar challenges, and the complex mix of guilt, shame, and forgiveness that follows trauma. Sessions are available in English and Sharon accepts international clients. Her style is collaborative and practical - she listens first, then helps create steps that feel doable and relevant to everyday life.

Online session options
Approach and options for online therapy
Sharon uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from their problems and tell a different life story. This approach often helps with identity questions, relationship patterns, and the lasting effects of trauma. She also applies Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds shape current emotional responses, which can be useful for intimacy, abandonment, and communication issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon treats therapy as a collaboration and will help clients choose which methods to try based on their goals and day-to-day needs. She starts by listening, then suggests steps and tools to practice between sessions so progress feels concrete and measurable.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth work and reading nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit a tighter schedule or lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, coaching-style exchanges, or moments when writing out thoughts feels easier. These choices make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while keeping the focus on what helps the client move forward.
