About Sharion
Sharion Phelps is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Georgia with five years of clinical experience. She works with people feeling overwhelmed, stuck in thought patterns, or disconnected from themselves. She also helps those facing relationship and intimacy strains and people carrying guilt and shame alongside anxiety or low mood.
Sharion uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help clients slow down and see patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than abstract talk. She aims to help people notice how thoughts, interactions, and family history shape feelings and behavior.
In couple work she concentrates on communication and rebuilding emotional closeness after conflict or infidelity. She supports partners who keep repeating the same arguments and want different outcomes. She also works with people navigating non-monogamous or polyamorous arrangements and the particular stresses those can bring.
Sharion draws on methods such as cognitive behavioral ideas, systemic thinking, narrative methods, the Gottman Method, and solution-focused strategies. Those tools are used to identify patterns, rewrite unhelpful narratives, and try practical changes between sessions. The emphasis is on clarity, small experiments, and steady progress.
People who meet with her can expect straightforward conversation about emotions, relationships, and choices. She helps clients explore family of origin issues, divorce and separation, sexual difficulties, self-esteem, forgiveness, and questions of life purpose without moralizing.
How Sharion Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Sharion uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT focuses on concrete skills and short experiments that change how someone responds to anxiety or shame. The Gottman Method is used for relationship work and emphasizes specific communication skills, shared rituals, and managing conflict in a step-by-step way.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work collaboratively with each person or couple to decide which methods fit current goals and preferences. That often means combining techniques and adjusting what is tried based on what helps most.

It can also make it simpler to include partners who live apart or to try structured communication exercises between sessions without needing to be in the same room.
