About Sharisse

Sharisse Ramos is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York who uses practical talk and evidence-informed methods to help people move forward. She aims to meet clients where they are and supports them through life changes with respect and compassion.

She draws on eight years of clinical work to address stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life transitions such as separation or shifting family roles. Sharisse also supports people dealing with attachment concerns, abandonment, codependency, and blended family challenges.

Her approach mixes cognitive behavioral ideas with acceptance-based practices and skills from dialectical behavior methods. Sessions focus on clearer thinking, identifying values, building emotional skills, and creating achievable steps clients can try between meetings. Conversations are paced to each person's needs and goals.

Sharisse has worked in clinical settings where she helped people with family conflict, motivation, financial stress, and caregiver strain. She also has experience with creative and trauma-informed tools and offers practical strategies for communication and managing intense feelings.

If someone is unsure where to start, she helps set small goals and adjusts the plan as progress happens. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy button on the platform.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Sharisse commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that match personal goals rather than trying to push feelings away.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape trust and connection. This approach can help people change how they relate to loved ones and reduce repeated cycles of hurt.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to test different strategies and adapt the plan to their goals and preferences. Together they set small, practical goals and adjust methods based on what helps most.
