I'm a licensed MFT #81396. My ultimate goal in my therapy work is to help my clients believe in themselves as much as I believe in them. I work with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and countless life issues. While I am deeply humanistic, I also frequently employ elements from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge clients' negative self-talk, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help them navigate big feelings. My work is informed by Object Relations theory, in which the therapist provides the client with empathy and attunement. Additionally, I am trained in EMDR, which is an invaluable tool for clients struggling with trauma.

I am a Latinx therapist who began practicing in 2013 and have experience helping people heal and continue on their mental health journeys.

I hope to help you too in finding your own healing path going at your own pace and deciding what you want to focus on.

I am Sharlisa Byrd, LMFT (CA & OR), SEP, TITC-CT, CCHt, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist serving clients in California and Oregon. I am also a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and Certified Clinical Traumatologist. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Palo Alto University and am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and the Flash Technique. My work focuses on helping individuals heal from trauma, anxiety, and chronic stress, with a deep understanding of how these experiences become held within the body and nervous system. I use a trauma-informed and culturally responsive approach that integrates somatic and mind-body techniques to support emotional regulation, resilience, and lasting healing. I have experience supporting individuals navigating concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, OCD, parenting challenges, attachment issues, complex relationship dynamics, life transitions for adolescents and young adults, domestic violence recovery, sexual abuse recovery, psychosis, and African American identity concerns. In addition to my clinical practice, I serve as an Adjunct Professor at the University of San Francisco, where I teach multiple graduate-level counseling courses. I have also trained in several trauma-resolution approaches that inform my work with clients, students, and colleagues. My clinical philosophy centers on a bottom-up approach to healing, recognizing that trauma often lives in the body and that healing involves restoring safety, awareness, and balance within the nervous system. I often describe my role as a manufacturer of hope and healing, supporting individuals as they move beyond survival and toward becoming post-traumatic thrivers. On a personal note, I am the mother of six daughters and a grandmother to three and a half granddaughters, experiences that have deepened my understanding of relationships, attachment, and what many refer to as Mother Hunger.

I also have extensive experience working with children who face emotional, mental, and behavioral challenges, understanding that their treatment needs differ from adults due to developmental differences. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to your child's age and specific situation. These methods can help your child develop coping skills, enhance social interactions, and better manage their emotions. Depending on your child's age and needs, I may work directly with you or other caregivers to enhance parenting skills or address particular behaviors. Counseling can foster personal growth and improve various aspects of your life.
