LaSharta Pearson

Ms. Pearson believes in the power of positive affirmation and is driven by a deep desire to help people who are struggling. She finds purpose in witnessing the progress individuals make and values the opportunity to accompany them through change.

She often recalls a mentor’s metaphor that therapeutic work resembles planting a seed - when a seed receives nourishment it has room to grow and transform. That image guides her approach, which centers on tailoring care to each person’s needs, expectations, and goals.

Ms. Pearson draws from a range of therapeutic methods, including Solution Focused Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness techniques, and she integrates practical skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) as appropriate.

Her life experience includes service as a corrections officer and time in the US Air Force, and she has volunteered with organizations such as the Special Olympics, Big Brother & Big Sister, and the Guardian ad Litem program. Those roles inform the perspective she brings to her mindcare work.

She has eight years of clinical experience and holds Licensed Clinical Social Worker credentials in Texas (TX LCSW 104302) and North Carolina (NC LCSW C012963). These credentials indicate she is licensed to provide clinical social work services in those states.

Ms. Pearson aims to empower, inspire, and motivate the people she works with, and she often shares one of her favorite affirmations: “You are a powerful force of nature; your potential is limitless. Start believing in the power of you.”
