About Sharon
LMHP licensed in Nebraska with 27 years of professional experience, Sharon Macholan helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, career transitions, depression, and coping with life changes. She also offers coaching-style support for practical life and career decisions. Sharon works in English and brings experience from both private practice and larger organizations.
Sharon trained as a school psychologist and holds an advanced degree in that field, which she uses when supporting parents and teens around school issues, special education, and accommodation plans. Her background includes many years working with teens, and she has experience with suicide prevention and family therapy. She also lists cognitive behavior therapy and behavior activation therapy among her clinical work.
Sessions focus on clear, practical conversation about current challenges and steps forward. She helps people identify behaviors that keep problems going and then practices different ways of responding. Parents can expect guidance tied to school processes when that is relevant. Sharon also supports people moving through separation, grief, or career change.
She has worked across settings including private practice and school systems, and she describes a straightforward, no-frills approach in sessions. The emphasis is on realistic goals, concrete strategies, and honest conversations about what is and is not working. That practical focus guides how she structures sessions and homework between meetings.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sharon notes that insurance companies do not influence the therapy process in her current practice model, and she welcomes people living outside Lincoln by offering remote access for those in Nebraska.

Evidence-based approaches and remote sessions
Sharon lists cognitive behavior therapy and behavior activation therapy among her clinical tools. Cognitive behavior work focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Behavior activation emphasizes small, manageable changes in activity to reduce low mood and increase engagement with meaningful tasks.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on how those approaches fit the client's needs and preferences. The process is practical and iterative rather than prescriptive.
The biography does not specify which remote session formats are currently offered, so confirm session options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing commute time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and enabling people living outside urban centers in Nebraska to meet with a seasoned clinician. These practical benefits help integrate therapy into daily routines without promising a particular format.
