About Sharricci

Sharricci Dancy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. She takes a straightforward, supportive approach that aims to make therapy feel practical and understandable. She works with adults on career concerns, relationship strain, caregiving stress, and finding life purpose. Sharricci draws from mindfulness practices to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed. She also uses client-centered methods that focus on each person’s pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools are used when helpful to build coping skills and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Her background includes work in county healthcare case management, giving her experience with real-world stressors that affect daily life. She brings three years of documented professional experience as an LCSW and practical knowledge of aging and caregiver issues. Sessions focus on small, doable steps - learning skills, practicing new responses, and talking through decisions. She pays attention to communication problems, codependency, control issues, and midlife concerns. She also supports people dealing with end-of-life matters, hoarding, and financial strain as they relate to mood and stress. People who choose Sharricci can expect a collaborative process. She helps clients identify goals and then tailors methods like mindfulness, CBT, or client-centered conversation to meet those goals. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s matching steps and schedule based on availability.

How mindfulness and practical therapy work online

Sharricci often uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice their thoughts and bodily reactions. Mindfulness practices can make intense feelings easier to observe and manage during stressful times. Client-Centered Therapy is another core approach she uses; it emphasizes listening to what matters most to the client and shaping sessions around their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, provides clear tools to identify and change thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That might mean starting with mindfulness exercises and then adding CBT skills or using client-centered conversation to set goals. The plan is adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Session formats are not listed in this profile, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and let people check in from quieter surroundings. It also lets some clients use shorter sessions for focused skills practice or schedule meetings during a lunch break. Licensed professionals can use a mix of approaches to make remote therapy workable for many day-to-day challenges.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
