Great to meet you!

When you spend much of your life caring for others, managing responsibilities, and getting through the day, it can be easy to lose sight of your own needs. You deserve space to slow down, process what you are carrying, and focus on yourself. My name is Sharaye Gilmore, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience in therapy and case management. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in social work. As a wife and mother of four adult children, I understand that life includes many different seasons, responsibilities, and transitions. My passion is helping clients recognize their strengths and work toward their personal goals.

My approach to therapy

My preferred therapeutic approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, with a mindfulness-based perspective. I believe life struggles are a normal part of being human, but having the right support can make those struggles easier to navigate. Our work together will be collaborative and focused on your needs. We will explore patterns that may be holding you back, identify areas where change is possible, and develop practical steps to help you move toward the life you want.

What you can expect from me

Your first session will focus on getting to know you, gathering background information, discussing your concerns, and identifying what you hope to accomplish through therapy. We will also talk about expectations for our therapeutic relationship and begin developing a treatment plan that reflects your goals. As we continue, sessions will provide time to process experiences, build self-awareness, learn new coping strategies, and recognize the progress you are making. My goal is for you to feel comfortable being honest, supported as you work through challenges, and encouraged as you take meaningful steps toward your goals.
