About Sharisse
Sharisse Ramos uses practical, skills-based approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - LCSW and brings eight years of experience working with adults who feel stuck by depression, self-doubt, relationship strain, or big life changes. Her tone is direct and compassionate, focused on small steps that add up over time.
She favors tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and change habits.
Background and approach
She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotional regulation and coping strategies. Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit what each person needs right now. Ramos has worked in clinical settings addressing family problems, caregiver stress, body image concerns, codependency, and issues around commitment and attachment.
She helps people talk through blended family dynamics, separation and divorce, and the emotional fallout after domestic violence. Practical problem solving and clearer communication are common session goals. Her approach is person-centered, meaning conversations follow the client’s priorities.
She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and set workable goals. The focus is on building routines and skills that clients can use between sessions. Sharisse offers therapy in English from New York and accepts international clients.
She supports people who want straightforward techniques, emotional support, and a plan for coping with life’s ups and downs.
Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters most and taking small steps toward those values. It helps people navigate major life changes and reduce the power of painful thoughts by shifting attention to action aligned with personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete tools to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into manageable steps and practical exercises to work on between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will choose techniques that fit the client’s needs and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to connect. Video calls let visual cues guide conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and short live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins or skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on skill-building and steady progress.
