About Shari
Shari Lightfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado. She greets people with warmth and straightforward language, and she recognizes that reaching out for help can feel hard. Shari invites clients to explore practical steps toward feeling better and offers steady support along the way.
Her background includes seven years working in residential and outpatient community mental health settings. That work included individual therapy, group therapy, and roles that involved family therapy settings. Shari draws on a person-centered, strengths-based outlook in session and focuses on what a person already has that can be used to heal.
She blends approaches to match each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps with unhelpful thinking and behaviors. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used when trauma memories are getting in the way. Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused approaches help with relationship patterns and emotional connection.
Shari is comfortable adding nontraditional tools when they suit a person’s goals. She emphasizes authenticity, clear communication, and mutual respect in the therapeutic relationship. Sessions are aimed at practical change, clearer coping, and greater emotional understanding.
People often come for help with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, addictions, grief, intimacy issues, sleep and eating concerns, and attention-related difficulties. Shari works with these issues by listening carefully, naming patterns, and trying interventions that fit each client’s life.
