About

Hi! I am Sharona Baker, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. My area of focus is You! My approach is attentive and supportive. My approach My clinical approach is eclectic and utilizes techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Brief Solution-Focused, and Family Systems. My focus Feeling stuck or derailed? Having a hard time sorting things out? Struggling with decision making? Experiencing periods of low motivation or interest in activities once found enjoyable? Finding yourself repeating unhealthy patterns in your relationships? Blaming yourself for situations that were outside the span of your control? If you answered yes to any of these questions and are ready to do something about it, then I am here to work with you. I have over twenty (20) years of combined experience in public and social services, with the last ten (10) years dedicated to mental health and wellness. My communication style Collaborative Connections Counseling Solutions’ therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that successful outcomes in counseling are achieved from the unique relationship established between the clinician and client. That relationship, also known as the therapeutic alliance, is the healthy emotional bond developed and utilized to help meet your goals. My journey to therapy I have always had a strong desire to help others. I have always been an advocate. Those inherent qualities or characteristics are what attracted me to this profession. Since I entered the workforce, I was always in the helping profession, whether hospitality or public service. However, it was my own personal experience and relationship with counseling that shifted the trajectory of both my personal and professional path and I have not looked backed since. I am a true change agent and believe wholeheartedly in the practice. It is my absolute passion to assist you with living as your true, authentic self.
