About

About June

June Sharkey is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. She focuses on practical steps that parents and individuals can use right away. June speaks in clear language and meets people where they are.

June centers sessions on respectful, sensitive, and compassionate conversation. She tailors the pace and topics to each person's situation. That can mean short skills practice one week and a longer problem-solving session the next.

Background and approach

Her work often addresses parenting concerns alongside anxiety and self-esteem struggles. She helps parents sort priorities, set realistic goals, and develop routines that reduce daily tension. She also supports people coping with the fallout of past trauma and abuse.

June draws on two evidence-informed approaches to guide sessions. She uses practical thinking tools to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and coping skills to manage strong emotions. Sessions are organized around clear goals and small steps toward them.

People who meet with June can expect a collaborative tone. She listens first, then suggests strategies that fit the person's life. Her aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Online support

Practical therapy approaches for online parenting support

June uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and change them. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches simple steps to shift how you react. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and parenting stress.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation and coping skills. DBT teaches grounding, distress tolerance, and communication techniques that can reduce intense reactions and improve daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to what matters most, set reasonable goals, and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps.

Online sessions come in multiple formats to match practical life demands. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when time and bandwidth allow. Phone sessions work well for brief check-ins or when a camera is not ideal. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, skill reminders, and shorter exchanges between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep steady progress without long travel.
