It’s not a breaking point,
it’s a change point

You are not just what keeps you stuck-
let’s think about how you change.
My Approach
My work is trauma-informed, depth-oriented, and guided by respect for your inner process. Some of the tools and approaches I use include:
Internal Family Systems (IFS) – helping you explore your inner landscape with compassion
EMDR – supporting the resolution of traumatic memories and the rewiring of emotional patterns
Mindfulness-based practices – cultivating awareness, presence, and emotional regulation
CBT and somatic strategies – managing anxiety, stress, and nervous system overload
Transpersonal and psychodynamic frameworks – for those curious about meaning, identity, and spiritual or existential growth
Whether you need space to unpack trauma, reorient your life, or simply exhale, our work together can support you in finding steadiness and clarity.

Hi, I’m Sharon Manning, LICSW.
I’m a licensed psychotherapist who works with women navigating midlife—the messy, meaningful, in-between seasons where so much is shifting. With 17 years of experience, I’ve supported people through all kinds of transitions—from trauma recovery and grief to questioning long-held roles, identities, and beliefs.
My style is warm, steady, and collaborative. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, CBT, mindfulness-based practices, and transpersonal perspectives to support both emotional healing and nervous system balance.
I don’t believe you need to be “fixed.” I believe you already carry something steady and true inside—even if it’s hard to hear right now. Therapy can help you reconnect with that. We’ll move at your pace, with care, curiosity, and room to sort out what really fits for you now.

Common Issues I Work With
My clients often come to therapy during seasons of change—navigating perimenopause or menopause, stepping out of long-held roles, facing relationship shifts, or grieving what no longer fits.
I work with people living with anxiety, overwhelm, burnout, and the quiet ache of feeling like they’re not enough. Trauma, both recent and long past, is something I hold with care and experience.
Other common threads include caregiving fatigue, spiritual or existential questions, and the challenge of being highly sensitive in a world that often feels too loud. Whether you're sorting out boundaries, reconnecting with your voice, or simply needing a place to exhale—I offer space for it all.
Get Started
You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. It’s okay to start small—therapy can begin with a single, honest conversation.
If you’re curious about working together, I invite you to reach out to schedule a brief consultation call.
