More about Shara

  • 25 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hi! My name is Shara Trumbull, and I am a LCSW with over 20 years of experience. I have worked in a variety of settings: hospitals, medical offices, health departments, and integrated care. I have also enjoyed teaching about mental health and trauma in my community and abroad as well as teaching a Psychology course at a local homeschool cooperative. I have counseled a wide variety of clients with issues ranging from mild adjustment issues to severe mental illness such as schizophrenia. I love working with women and helping them walk through infidelity and infertility, depression and anxiety. I have enjoyed working with all of my clients who have a desire to achieve joy no matter what robbed them of that—especially trauma. Listening is a lost art, and my greatest desire is to listen, engage, and walk alongside others in their journey. It takes courage to ask for help and tell someone your story. My hope is that you can find not only peace but also joy in the midst of often stormy, unchangeable, and uncertain circumstances.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Shara is a great listener, not in the sense of doing nothing but listening, but in the sense of hearing what you’re saying and having on-point responses. She is on-the-fly creative in sharing helpful resources for continuing work on your goals. I’m new to this activity and thankful that I was teamed with Shara.
