I believe everyone deserves to experience the joy and peace that comes from healing. If you're feeling stuck in darkness, weighed down by past experiences, or caught in negative thought patterns, you're not alone—and you don't have to navigate it by yourself.
For more than 34 years, I've helped individuals, primarily women, heal from trauma, build self-esteem, and create meaningful, lasting change. I have advanced training in EMDR and specialize in helping clients process traumatic experiences so they can move forward with greater confidence and emotional freedom.
My approach is holistic, recognizing the connection between your mind, body, and emotions. Together, we'll create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to reach your therapy goals. My hope is to help you move beyond simply surviving so you can fully experience the joy, fulfillment, and life you deserve.

I’m Sharon Elizabeth Locklear, LCSW, ACSW, and I bring more than 30 years of experience as a mental health practitioner. My career has included work in private practice, hospitals, the U.S. Army, and the VA, supporting individuals through grief, trauma, caregiving, chronic health concerns, relationship difficulties, major life transitions, and complex mental health challenges.
I understand how easy it can be to lose yourself while caring for others, managing responsibilities, or simply trying to survive difficult circumstances. I believe people have the capacity to heal, grow, and create lives that reflect who they truly are. My role is not to tell you who to become, but to help you recognize your strengths, understand what may be keeping you stuck, and move toward the life you want to create.

I’m Christina, a warm, down-to-earth therapist who genuinely enjoys getting to know people and understanding what makes them who they are.
I’ve spent more than 15 years working with people in schools, hospitals, community mental health, crisis intervention, and trauma-focused settings. Along the way, I’ve supported veterans, first responders, trauma and abuse survivors, parents, professionals, adolescents, and neurodivergent individuals.
My path into therapy has given me the opportunity to sit with people during some incredibly difficult moments. It has taught me that there is almost always more to someone than what we see on the surface - and that life rarely fits neatly into categories.
I’m interested in the whole picture: your experiences, relationships, strengths, struggles, sense of humor, values, and the things you may not always understand about yourself.
I also believe therapy can be both meaningful and human. There will be serious conversations, but there can also be laughter, honesty, and those moments when something finally clicks.
You don’t have to have an impressive story or a perfect explanation for why you’re here. We can start with wherever life has you right now.

I’ve been practicing therapy for 25 years, which has included 12 years in NC and prior practice in both Kansas and New Mexico. I’ve worked in community mental health most of my career so I’ve had the opportunity to serve all ages and provide treatment for a huge variety of mental health concerns. I’m pretty down to Earth, open, honest, and genuine. I can be direct when needed to help bring awareness or light to a potential problem area while at the same time me providing support and encouragement. I enjoy hearing people’s life stories and helping individuals navigate their way through difficult life situations and problematic symptoms. No judgment, just a person available to help you find what you need.
