I believe therapy works best as a partnership wherein we work together to discover your strengths and create meaningful, lasting change.
I'm Sharon, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 25 years of experience helping adults navigate life's challenges. I have worked in various behavioral health settings, providing compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, and relationship concerns. I enjoy working with adults and older teens who may feel overwhelmed or stuck. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where clients feel seen, heard, and accepted while we work together to identify strengths, overcome obstacles, and create lasting change.
I provide a compassionate, collaborative approach that helps clients gain insight, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful change. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and substance abuse. Clients can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space where they feel heard and supported.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, but you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whatever you are experiencing, you'll be met with compassion, respect, and support. If you are ready to begin your journey toward healing and growth, I invite you to schedule an appointment.

As a professional woman, mother and grandmother, I have navigated many life circumstances and challenges which contribute to the well rounded education inherent in a mental health career.
I am a LCSW licensed in 1989. Much of my career has been spent with military members and their families affording me with knowledge and insight into the complexities of military service. I have worked extensively with depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. I understand the burdens these painful circumstances bring. I believe in meeting clients where they are with compassion and empathy, and I believe in the indomitable human spirit.
As a LCSW, I've had years of training in multiple methods of working with trauma including CBT, DBT, CBT-PTSD, ACT, Ego State, and EMDR. I believe in the worth of every individual and no two experiences are the same. I believe empathy, respect, and a nonjudgmental approach set the stage for positive client outcomes.
In choosing to engage in therapy with me, I hope you will find warmth and acceptance, a listening ear and understanding heart. Once you engage, you will find the process fluid, with you in charge of your goals and outcomes while I provide tools, support, feedback, and encouragement along the way.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Increased happiness counseling from our Thriveworks therapists in Conway, AR guides clients in cultivating gratitude, resilience, and a deeper understanding of their own values and goals. The aim of increased happiness counseling is to empower individuals to lead happier and more fulfilling lives by promoting a greater sense of personal satisfaction and emotional equilibrium.
Therapists who specialize in increased happiness counseling can utilize a diverse array of methods, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) strategies, mindfulness exercises, and the principles of positive psychology to assist you in nurturing qualities like gratitude, resilience, and a deeper comprehension of your values and aspirations. The primary objective of increased happiness counseling is to empower you to live a more joyful and satisfying life, fostering an enhanced sense of personal contentment and emotional balance.
Increased happiness counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Some individuals may achieve their objectives to gain insights and strategies for enhancing their happiness in just a few sessions. In contrast, others may opt for an extended counseling journey to address deeper emotional concerns and establish lasting happiness and well-being. The frequency and duration of your sessions during counseling in Conway is typically determined through collaboration between the client and therapist.
At one point, people thought the happiness people experienced was a fixed quantity: there may be a range within which people could fluctuate, but they could never exceed their top limit. However, new research has shown that emotional strength is much like physical strength: each person has a base level of fitness, but with consistent exercise, anyone can improve. Just as anyone can grow stronger, so anyone can grow happier.
People are also looking to mental health professionals for help knowing which mental health exercises improve happiness and which are clickbait. Thriveworks Conway offers true therapy for increasing happiness help, and our professionals are seeing more and more clients who are ready to prioritize their own happiness. Reach out today for increased happiness help.
Often, people let situations completely outside of their influence or control determine their happiness. While people can work hard at the office, they cannot make anyone give them a raise. While people can cheer for their team, they cannot influence the outcome of a game. While people can plan their day, they cannot choose the weather.
When people base their happiness upon outside sources, then their happiness may feel random or out of control. The key to experiencing happiness is to look toward internal sources of joy. While outside circumstances will always play a part, there are many things people can do that directly affects the happiness they feel. In particular, people can abandon habits that stifle happiness, and they can cultivate habits that allow happiness to grow.
Negative habits need to be replaced with positive ones. A skilled therapist can help people identify which emotional exercises may be right for them. A few examples of positive emotional habits that cultivate joy include…
There is no magic potion for happiness, but there are mental health professionals who are ready and willing to guide your path toward a happier life. Thriveworks Conway has appointments available for increasing happiness therapy.
If you are ready to meet with one of our professionals, know that we accept most forms of insurance. We offer evening and weekend appointments. At Thriveworks Conway, our hope is that every client receives the help they need, when they need. Let’s work together toward a happier life. Contact Thriveworks Conway today.
