About LaSharta

LaSharta Pearson is a licensed clinical social worker who brings eight years of practice to her work in Texas. She began serving communities through roles in the military and corrections, and later shifted to mental health work where she focuses on helping people make practical changes. Her style is warm and encouraging, and she often uses positive affirmations to support growth.

She meets each person where they are and builds a plan around their goals.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on concrete steps and skills people can use between meetings. She draws on approaches that teach coping tools and ways to rethink unhelpful patterns. Her background includes time in the US Air Force and experience as a corrections officer, plus volunteer work with organizations such as the Special Olympics and Guardian ad Litem programs.

Those roles shaped her commitment to community and informed how she supports people through stress and life transitions. LaSharta works with a range of concerns including anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, mood disorders, workplace stress, and caregiver strain. She commonly addresses coping for big changes, feelings of isolation, and communication challenges.

In sessions she blends client-centered conversation with evidence-informed techniques like cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches. That mix helps people build skills, manage intense emotions, and clarify values. She aims to empower clients to try new behaviors and notice progress over time.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters most to them and take small actions that align with those values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes by shifting focus from avoiding thoughts to building a meaningful life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is useful for anxiety, panic symptoms, mood challenges, and managing everyday stress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills for handling intense feelings and improving communication. It can be helpful for people who need steady tools to reduce emotional reactivity and improve relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Together they will adjust techniques so the work fits the person and their life.

Online sessions offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between meetings or when a shorter interaction is needed. These options make it simpler to practice skills and stay connected to care around daily responsibilities.
