Sharon Kennedy

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology and a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work. I have worked as a therapist in a multitude of settings, including hospitals, school districts, Juvenile Justice, group practices and private practice. I have worked with clients of all ages, backgrounds and diagnoses. I have performed varying clinical roles including, Clinical Director of a Group Psychology Practice, Individual, Family and GroupTherapist , Children’s Hospital Individual and Family Therapist and Contracted School Based Therapist.

Pain is an inescapable part of life. As a therapist, I strive to help my clients approach painful experiences from a place of strength and hope. Utilizing tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness, I aim to assist clients in accepting the inevitability of pain, while learning to think, feel and respond to it in ways that reduce suffering and enhance healing.

My initial meeting with a client will focus on getting to know a bit about you! Your strengths and struggles, your interests and what you would like to achieve in therapy.
