About Sharon
Sharon Calhoun is a licensed master social worker with 35 years of experience helping people through major life changes and emotional struggles. She works primarily with adults in Michigan who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, anger, and relationship strain. Sharon uses a practical, person-centered way of working to help people feel steadier in daily life.
Her practice emphasizes attachment-based ideas alongside cognitive behavioral methods. That means she pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns, and also helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Background and approach
She brings Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused techniques when people want clear, step-by-step goals. Sharon keeps sessions warm and collaborative. She listens for what matters most and helps set small, achievable steps.
Her style suits people who want clear feedback, tools to manage anxiety or cravings, and space to process past hurt. Many clients come with concerns about abandonment, codependency, family of origin problems, blended family issues, fatherhood, or aging and geriatric concerns.
Sharon also addresses communication problems, control issues, and feelings of emptiness alongside more familiar issues like substance use and domestic violence histories. She provides care in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sharon works with each person to match therapy methods to their goals and pace.

Online support
How attachment work and practical tools translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people relate today. In online sessions Sharon helps identify patterns around trust, closeness, and separation so clients can try different ways of relating in everyday life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT sessions include practicing new skills, homework, and step-by-step strategies to reduce anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will talk with each person about their goals, history, and preferences and then pick methods together. That collaborative planning means therapy stays practical and aligned with what the person wants to change.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, quick problem-solving, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other routines while using attachment and CBT-informed techniques.
