About Sharon
Sharon Roberts-Carter is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years in mental health and substance abuse work. She helps people facing depression, anxiety, stress, addictions, grief, trauma, parenting challenges, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy concerns.
Sharon takes a direct, empathetic approach and aims to create a calm space for people to talk through what matters most to them. She uses familiar, practical methods rather than jargon.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on identifying patterns, learning tools to manage strong emotions, and setting small steps toward clearer goals. Sharon draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thinking, client-centered listening to reflect what a person needs, and mindfulness practices to build steady attention.
Over her career Sharon has worked with many populations and a wide range of life situations, including substance use and chronic stress. Her style balances realistic problem solving with encouragement. She leans toward strength-based work that notices what already helps a person and builds from there.
Sharon also uses motivational interviewing to support change and solution-focused techniques to set actionable goals. People who want practical strategies and respectful listening will find this combination useful. She is licensed in North Carolina and Virginia and conducts work in English.
To begin, Sharon asks about current concerns, past attempts at change, and what a person hopes to achieve. From there she collaborates on a plan that fits each person's pace and priorities. Her overall aim is to help people grow clearer coping skills and more confidence in daily life.

Online support
How Sharon’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person feels heard and can decide their next steps. It helps people who need space to sort feelings and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches simple skills to change unhelpful habits. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and then try approaches that fit. The process is collaborative - goals and pacing are set together and adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video lets people work face to face from wherever they are. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are useful for short check-ins, brief coaching, or when a written exchange feels more comfortable. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
