Mission Statement

The mission of Sharon M. Barnes, MSSW, LCSW, Therapist For Sensitive And Gifted

Is to help CASIGYs™ release your creativity

so you can become fully alive and fulfill your destiny.

As you pursue this, you may discover, to your dismay,

that you are hindered by your pain

or haunted by your past.

I then help

you (if and when you desire and choose it),

to heal your past,  transform your pain,

care for your soul,

find and honor your self,

thus opening the way to the thriving and significance that you seek.
Featured Quote

Compassion begins with the acceptance of what is most human in ourselves, what is most capable of suffering. In attending to our own capacity to suffer, we can uncover a simple and profound connection between our own vulnerability and the vulnerability in all others. Experiencing this allows us to find an instinctive kindness toward life which is the foundation of all compassion and genuine service.
