Sharonda Patrick

Sharonda Patrick is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 17 years of experience. She focuses on common life challenges like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and relationship strain. She also supports people facing grief, addictions, career concerns, parenting stress, and recovery from trauma. Sharonda emphasizes practical steps and real skills you can use between sessions.

She approaches work in a collaborative way, treating each person as the expert on their own life. Sessions often center on identifying strengths, setting small goals, and trying concrete strategies to feel better. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques help people notice and change patterns that keep them stuck. Solution-Focused Therapy guides short-term goal setting and builds momentum through achievable steps.

Sharonda helps clients break problems into manageable parts. She uses clear tools and simple exercises rather than abstract talk. Many people come away with a plan they can follow at home and ways to measure progress.

Her background includes nearly two decades of clinical work in North Carolina. The LCMHC credential means she is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in the state. That experience informs her practical, strengths-based style.

If you are looking for hands-on support with anxiety, career questions, family concerns, or coping after loss, she offers structured approaches that focus on real change and steady progress.

How her approaches translate to online work

Sharonda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replace them with practical alternatives. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, stress, and mood concerns by offering exercises and small experiments to try between sessions.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which concentrates on clear, achievable goals. This approach is useful when someone wants focused progress on a specific problem like career decisions, communication challenges, or parenting stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. Together they will review what helps most and adjust the plan as needed.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time so people can practice skills between obligations. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and solution-focused tasks to an online setting so clients still get practical tools and measurable steps toward their goals.
