As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Sharleen has worked with a wide variety of clients and has over 30 years of professional counseling experience. She specializes in counseling individuals and/or their families who are coping with the impact of various physical and/or mental health-related matters. Often this involves counseling in areas of adjustment to illness and disability as well as related caregiver stress.

In summary, these words from Theodore Roosevelt resonate with Sharleen’s general approach to working with her clients: “Do what you can with all you have, wherever you are.” Sharleen looks forward to helping YOU achieve YOUR goals, wherever you happen to be in your life’s journey!
