Kind Words from our Clients |

“I’ve been with several counseling places/therapists over the span of almost a decade. None of them compare to Sharon Klein Counseling. Jeremy, who is in charge of making sure everything from billing and beyond is under control, is very caring and understanding. I’m grateful to God for putting on Sharon’s heart to open this practice, as He has used it to change my life. Although struggles will always be present, I know God has placed my counselor, Larissa Weinert, in my life to help “carry my burdens (with His help)” for a reason. Larissa has been a blessing to my life. She always believes in me and advocates for me to make sure my walk with Christ is one with Godly care and dignity. I really struggle to trust people, due to past experiences, but no matter what it is, Larissa has been honest in love and has made me feel safe (which is so hard to find). Knowing I have a therapist who is always praying for me and cheering me on from the sidelines, as Larissa does, makes me feel not alone and truly valued (something I’ve always struggled with). If I could ever meet her in person, I would give her a hug and say thank you. Knowing that God has placed Sharon Klein Counseling and Larissa in my corner means everything.”

Meet Your Counselor | Natasha
I believe each person is fearfully and wonderfully made - and that the layers of who we are reflect the beauty and intentionality of our Creator. My work in both clinical settings and the local church has shaped a holistic approach to counseling, one that honors every part of what it means to be human: emotional, physical, and spiritual.

In the therapy room, my heart is to meet you with compassion, sensitivity, and the reminder that it’s okay to not be okay. Asking for help isn’t weakness, it’s a brave and meaningful step toward healing. Therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental space to process what feels heavy, explore what feels stuck, and celebrate the growth and resilience you may not always see in yourself.

My professional journey began as a youth director in a church, where I quickly realized just how complex the challenges were that many young people and families were facing. That realization led me to pursue a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and step into clinical work. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of serving children, adolescents, adults, and individuals navigating substance use disorders.

I would be honored to support you with compassion, care, and hope as you become the healthiest version of yourself. You don’t have to walk this journey alone. 🤍

This Christmas season, one of the most meaningful gifts you can give yourself is the intentional care of your own heart and mind. 🎄✨
In a season filled with celebration, gatherings, and joyful moments, it’s easy to overlook the quiet spaces within us that still feel tender, overwhelmed, or weary. But Jesus came into the world not just to bring salvation, but to bring peace, hope, and rest to every part of who we are.

He sees your heart.
He knows your story.
And He cares deeply about your emotional and mental wellbeing.

Pausing to care for yourself is not selfish - it’s a beautiful act of stewardship. When Scripture calls Jesus the Prince of Peace, it reminds us that true peace begins within, as we allow Him to calm the anxious thoughts, soothe the heavy places, and breathe life into the parts of us that feel forgotten.

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” - Psalm 107:1 🍂

This Thanksgiving, we’re reflecting on God’s faithfulness and the blessing of walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they pursue healing, restoration, and hope. It’s a privilege to witness the ways He moves in the hearts and lives of those we serve.

Whether your day is filled with celebration or carries a bit of heaviness, may you feel the nearness of God, the comfort of His peace, and the warmth of His love.
Wishing you and your family a grace-filled, joyful Thanksgiving. 🤍

As we welcome winter, we also acknowledge that for many, this season brings more than just cold weather. ❄️ Shorter days and longer nights can make it harder to find motivation, joy, or energy - and that’s okay.

If you’re feeling the weight of seasonal depression, know that you’re not alone. Here are a few ways to care for yourself this season:

☀️ Spend time in natural light whenever possible
💬 Stay connected to people who lift you up
🧘‍♀️ Prioritize movement and rest in equal measure
📆 Create small routines that bring structure and comfort

Our goal as therapists is to offer practical tools and real support - so you can navigate this season with hope, balance, and compassion for yourself.

Meet Your Counselor | Larissa

Life is full of opportunities to find meaning and hope, even in challenging moments. As Nietzsche once said, “He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.”
Since 2013, I’ve felt called by God to walk alongside others in their healing journey through psychotherapy. With a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling (graduating with honors and a clinical excellence award), I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families from all walks of life.

My approach is personalized - drawing from Logotherapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - to help you uncover your “why,” overcome the past, and step forward with purpose. Whether in-person or via telehealth, I’m here to help you become the person you’re meant to be.

As winter settles in, the days grow shorter and the air turns cold, it can be easy to focus on what feels barren - the empty trees, the stillness, the quiet. But even in this season, we’re reminded of the relentless hope that comes from knowing Jesus.

Our hope isn’t rooted in what we see, but in who He is. The same God who brings spring after winter and light after darkness is the One who walks with us through every season of the soul. 🌿

‘We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.’ - Hebrews 6:19

This hope is steady. It doesn’t fade when life feels heavy or still. It’s the gift we get to carry with us - wherever we go, whatever the season. 💛

Let’s talk about fear.

As fun as Halloween can be, this week often puts fear and anxiety at the center of our culture - through movies, costumes, and stories meant to scare. But for many, these themes can stir up real emotions that don’t disappear when the decorations come down.

At Sharon Klein Counseling, we approach anxiety and fear with curiosity and care, not judgment. These feelings are messages, often pointing us toward areas that need gentleness, understanding, or healing.

If anything about this season feels heavy, you’re not alone. We’re here to help you explore it and find peace in the process.

10/20/2025

Meet Your Counselor | Ye Sil

Simply seeking therapy can be a meaningful step forward. Your interest in counseling - whether it feels like a quiet curiosity or an urgent need - already speaks volumes about your courage.

Ye Sil’s passion for this work is rooted in her own story, her experience walking alongside clients, and a deep love for research and advocacy. She believes that every part of you - even the reactive, protective, or shut-down parts—makes sense in the context of what you’ve lived through.

Her integrative, trauma-informed approach draws from EMDR, IFS, ACT, and strength-based, person-centered frameworks. She works with clients navigating anxiety, self-criticism, people-pleasing, grief, identity, faith, and the desire to break old patterns—always at a pace that honors your nervous system.

You have space here, whether this is your first time in therapy or you’ve been on this path before.

Fun facts about Ye Sil:
☕ Currently trying to quit coffee (but makes exceptions for an iced chai latte w/ soy milk!)
🎨 Loves painting, gaming with her husband, and spending time at the beach
💭 Knew she was meant to be a counselor once she realized how many people God was sending into her life from the counseling world !

🍂 October is here, and for many, this is when anticipatory seasonal depression can start to creep in. The days get shorter, routines shift, and our bodies and minds begin preparing for the darker, colder months ahead.

✨ A few ways to support your mental health right now:

Soak up the daylight: Get outside during peak sun hours to help regulate mood and energy.
Move your body: Gentle exercise - like walking, stretching, or yoga can help reduce tension and boost endorphins.
Stay connected: Reach out to friends, join a group, or make space for community - even when you feel tempted to isolate.
Check in with yourself: Journaling or talking with a counselor can help you notice patterns and create strategies before symptoms deepen.

Remember, preparing for the season ahead is an act of care. You’re not alone in feeling this shift, and support is always available. 💛

MEET YOUR COUNSELOR | Francesca

Life can be unpredictable, and we’re not meant to walk through difficult seasons alone. As a Christian counselor, I come alongside individuals in grief, trauma, and transitions—offering both biblical truth and clinical care.
My approach is collaborative, creative, and trauma-informed, engaging both mind and body through practices like CBT, attachment theory, polyvagal theory, TBRI, and creative arts therapies.

I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am a National Certified Counselor, with additional training through CCEF, the Association of Biblical Counselors, and the North American Drama Therapy Association. My experience spans private practice, inpatient, and community care, with specialties in spiritual issues, pregnancy/postpartum, anxiety, depression, and relational trauma.

✨ Get to Know Francesca
Morning Ritual: She loves starting her day with a warm cup of herbal tea.
Outside the Office: You’ll often find her enjoying theater or taking peaceful nature walks.
Why Counseling? Francesca has always loved listening to people’s stories—and experiencing firsthand the power of being heard confirmed for her that this was the right career path.

Our Story

On the outside you look like you have it all together, but you are tired of pretending everything is great. Don’t get me wrong, some areas of your life may be going well, but you long for something more. Something is missing. And you are not even sure what that “something” is. Maybe your faith has always been a part of your life but at this point you are wondering how it all fits together. It may be a source of strength, but it still doesn’t bring you the comfort it once did. Or maybe you are questioning your faith all together.

You have tried reading some blogs or self-help books but that is not cutting it. Your friends suggest finding a therapist. But you are wondering if that is really necessary. How can a stranger help me with my stuff?

Experiencing adversity is a part of life, it is not a sign of failure. In fact, it is often in our pain that we discover a strength that we did not know we possess. But you don’t have to face it alone. I have the privilege of working with dynamic individuals whose strength and resolve shines through in the mist of some tremendously difficult circumstances. Sometimes it’s memories from the past that we never fully dealt with. Sometimes it’s insecurity, health issues, relationship challenges, loss, or the fear of the unknown. Sometimes it’s just feeling stuck. Seeking the support of a therapist during this time, can give you the tools you need to move through these challenges and help you discover meaning, direction and purpose.
