About Sharisse
Sharisse Ramos is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with eight years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, family problems, and life transitions. Sharisse also notes focused experience around abandonment, attachment concerns, relationship and communication problems, and caregiver stress.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) as core tools to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build skills for managing intense emotions. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based ideas when they fit a person's concerns.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Sharisse listens to what matters most, then works with clients to set clear next steps. Typical work can include identifying patterns that feed guilt or shame, practicing new responses, and rehearsing different ways of relating to others.
She has provided care in clinical settings and has supported people with issues that overlap with trauma, motivation, and caregiving strain. Her background includes work with blended family challenges, codependency, body image, and separation or divorce matters.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice difficult thoughts and emotions without trying to force them away, then clarify what matters and take small committed steps toward those values. It can help when guilt or shame keeps someone stuck and unsure which direction to take.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and situations where changing reactions can reduce ongoing distress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense feelings, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can be applied to relationship conflicts, codependency concerns, and problems with emotional overwhelm.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences rather than prescribing a single pathway. That collaboration includes checking in during early sessions and adjusting focus as progress and priorities become clearer.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, avoid travel, and reduce barriers to accessing a New York-licensed LCSW from elsewhere. Many people find these practical benefits help them maintain steady work on issues like guilt, shame, and family stress.
