About Susan Sharp

Licensed Professional Counselor

Being a therapist has been more of a calling than a career for me. I started my 30-year career as a licensed professional counselor in 1993, after earning a master's degree in educational psychology from Texas Tech University.

I have worked in various settings, including inpatient and outpatient care, schools, and private practice. Over the years, I have specialized in EMDR therapy, mindfulness, and Imago Relationship Therapy, and I’m now back in Texas, where I continue to serve clients in both Texas and Arizona.

I believe the most essential element in therapy is the relationship between the client and therapist. I integrate several different theories into my approach to help people discover their strength, heal from trauma, and create the life they deserve.

Empowering Growth Together

My Approach

  • Build a strong alliance: Together, we will develop rapport and ease in discussing your concerns. Whether I’m working with an individual or a couple, we’re a team. We’ll do this together!

  • Set the vision: Have you heard the saying that goals not written down are just wishes? It’s true! I’ll encourage you, as an individual or couple, to write down your vision in clear terms and review it frequently. By setting your vision, the process is already starting for you!

  • Choose the therapy that’s right for you: Now that we understand where we’re headed, we can work together on strategies that really work.

  • Take action: Along with our regular sessions, I will encourage you to practice daily strategies for well-being, communication, and self-discovery. Equipped with new awareness, you’ll learn and grow.
