Hello! I have spent 4 years working in a clinical setting with all types of clients, specializing in mood disorders, PTSD, and individuals who have auditory and visual hallucinations. I try to demystify mental health and the stigmas surrounding it.
Welcome to your new way of managing life with A.Y.O. Conversations, PLLC (Are You Okay). Often times we feel helpless and hopeless and need a safe partner to find our way through it all. I am Sharonda Ruffin MSW, LCSW.
I have been practicing social work for 15 years with the last 3 in the field of counseling/therapy. I attended Southern University and A&M College and Tulane University's School of Social Work where I received my Bachelor’s and Master’s of Science in Social Work degrees respectively. I have worked in what is considered the trenches, community health, and now healthcare. Helping you reach your goal is my passion.
Therapy and the journey to self-exploration can be hard. Together, we can navigate your path toward improved mental health and emotional well-being. My approach is solution-focused, centered on the immediate obstacles you are facing. While how you got here matters, what you choose to do next can have an even greater impact. As a clinical social worker with experience across private practice, hospital social work, parenting education, and community care, I bring a broad range of experience to support us in working through challenges together.
I have been a LPC for over 10 years and have worked with a very diverse group of clients. They range in age from 6 to 60. I specialize in adolescents and trauma. I have also worked with depression, anxiety, personal relationships, parenting problems, addictions, emotional abuse, and physical trauma.
What sets us apart from many other therapists is the fact we actually help you help yourself make the necessary changes in your life by giving you tools to achieve your goals. You’ll almost always walk out of a session with a new technique that you can go home and start using immediately.
