01About Sharhonda
Sharhonda Givens is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma who centers sessions on the client's own goals and strengths. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship matters, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. Her approach aims to help people feel steadier and more understood during hard seasons.
She blends Client-Centered Therapy with practical strategies to tackle unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. That means conversations are guided by what the client needs, while also learning tools to manage worry, impulsivity, and overwhelming emotions.
Background and approach
Mindfulness ideas are used to help people notice their thoughts and calm their reactions. Givens draws on her identity as a Black woman of faith to create a warm, respectful setting. She pays attention to cultural and personal values and how those shape relationships and decisions.
This focus shows up when discussing attachment issues, communication problems, and forgiveness work. Many sessions cover topics such as caregiver stress, isolation, guilt and shame, and finding life purpose. She also supports people dealing with control issues, sexuality concerns, and midlife changes.
The tone is practical: identify a concern, try a strategy, review what worked. For people wanting to grow their self-love and improve connection, she offers collaboration and steady support. Her background and three years of clinical experience inform straightforward guidance and encouragement.
Sessions are available in English and delivered online by video, phone, chat, or text.

04Online support
How these approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so people feel heard while they sort through feelings and goals. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, understanding presence to guide change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online sessions use discussion and simple exercises to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT tools are often used for anxiety, stress, and impulse control concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and tailor techniques to the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try methods and adjust what isn't working until a good fit emerges.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversation from another room. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow quick, ongoing support and work well for brief updates or when typing feels easier than talking.
These formats help clients fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity through transitions and schedule changes.
