Hi there, I'm Sharma!

Hi, my name is Sharma Bennett; I am a licensed Therapist with 20-plus years of experience. I work with a diverse group of individuals and couples to expand growth, enhance communication, and gain deeper insight into steps that can be taken to enhance self-regard and move closer to their goals.

My approach

I am interactive with clients and use a supportive integrative approach that draws from Cognitive, Interpersonal, and Psychodynamic therapies.

My focus

I work with clients managing anxiety and depression, achieving relationship and career goals --individuals who would like to grow and expand their sense of meaning and self-regard.

My communication style

I am interactive and collaborative and support each individual's unique sense of self.

My journey to mental healthcare

I love my work and come from a background of working in the arts and entertainment business.

My goals for you

Clients may have just begun to think of short and long-term goals that expand as they learn more about who they are and what has been left behind.

My first session with you

I am interested in creating a sense of openness and safety without anyone feeling judged.
