I’m so grateful for the support, guidance and encouragement I received from Sharon in the past couple of years. I dealt with extreme anxiety and depression for many years. I now feel what I’ve long thought is what a normal person should feel like. I’m happy and excited for everyday. I’m becoming my real self and I’m loving it! I’m so grateful for Sharon and this platform. I’m not sure if I would be here now. I was in crisis and panic mode when I first started and she has been very responsive and concerned when I was in distress. She gave me tips to calm me until our next appointment and even offered additional appointment times when I was really struggling. Thank you Sharon and Better Help! I’m alive inside again!!!

After my ongoing therapy with Sharon, I feel like I am finally the person I was meant to be. She gave me the tools and understanding to heal and find my real self and feel comfortable in my own skin. She is a gem! I feel so fortunate to have had her in my corner. She deserves a bonus!

Hello,

My name is Sharon Kuhlmann. Thank you for checking me out. Your comfort with a therapist is so important.

For the past 20 years, my clients have shared their thoughts, feelings, experiences, and their hopes and dreams with me. They have confessed their indiscretions, explored love and relationships, worked through childhood traumas and improved their mental health. I invite you to share your needs with an senior therapist with many hours of “couch time.” I owned and operated a private practice of counseling, now I have an opportunity to offer my expertise and experience in new way with Betterhelp.

I strive to understand my clients’ needs by listening attentively, sharing my insights, and responding openly. I enjoy my role as therapist and teacher, listener, coach, helper, and confidant.

My medical education and experience as an RN has provided great benefits to my career as a therapist. I have a useful understanding of the body and its physiological responses in anxiety, stress, depression, pain etc. I will offer tools and strategies to cope and self calm, strengthening the mind body connection. If you work in health care, I would be honored to work with you regarding your experiences with the pandemic.

Welcome to a rewarding journey!

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Sharon has been wonderful to talk to over the the past months as I have struggled with anxiety.

Reviewed January 2022

When I started my therapy sessions with Sharon, I was at the lowest point in my life. I had tried therapy before and the person didn't really help me so I quit going. I was skeptical but knew that I had to change or be consumed by my anxiety and depression and self doubt. Was I ever wrong. Not only has the therapy helped but I feel like I will come out a new better person than I've ever been. I Look forward to every session. Now I look forward to my future where I've always been apprehensive. Sharon is very calming to me and has a gentle approach that really makes it easy to talk to her. She is very inciteful and has gotten me to look at things in new ways, that have really opened my eyes. She is a caring person and that comes through for me and I would think anyone that is struggling. I wish I had understood how effective therapy can be. I'm so grateful to her for guiding me on this journey.
