Sharon Klein Counseling is truly a God sent gift. Finding this practice has helped me uncover so much about myself and I am finally on a path to living a better life of my dreams. I’ve seen two different therapists at this practice, and I will say from the moment of intake this practice has been the most thorough I have ever experienced. Everyone is kind and treats you like a human not just a client. I have recommended this practice to faith based and non faith based friends and both have had lovely experiences. Mental health can be difficult to juggle so it is great to see a team like Sharon’s always working to the best of their ability to make things easier! Highly highly recommend!

My family and I have been so blessed by Sharon Klein and her associates. They have been an answer to prayer. When we needed a therapist we knew we wanted a Christian and there aren’t too many licensed Christian therapists out here on Long Island so we were so happy we found Sharon. We have worked with some of the other therapists under Sharon and have been so helped by them as well. I highly recommend her!!

Sharon Klein and her associates are among the most ethical, kind, and compassionate people I have had the pleasure of knowing. The practice is run efficiently, and yet their focus on the mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing of their clients is always paramount. She is one of the first practices I recommend to people who are looking to begin therapy.

Sharon is amazing! I am so grateful for her and her practice.
Since working with Sharon, my life has changed dramatically for the better. In my struggles with anxiety and depression, she has taught me many skills including positive coping mechanisms and how to reframe my approach to different situations.
I first started working with Sharon after I graduated college. Nine years later, while I am in a different life stage, therapy with Sharon continues to help me. She is calm, kind, patient, and empathetic.
As a nurse who is pursuing becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I see even more value in Sharon’s practice. Her desire for growth can be seen in how she implements new therapeutic modalities. And this is after extensive research and training for herself and the practice’s other therapists. She doesn’t stop learning or growing because she knows that this is a ministry and not just a business.
So if you do end up working with Sharon, you’ll find yourself transformed in all areas of your life. Yes, she is that amazing!

My husband and I are working with Samantha on implementing therapeutic parenting in our home. Her extensive knowledge on best practices in this are and her care for our family is unmatched. She listens to our needs and concerns and provides practical ways we can begin transforming our parenting style. Our son has also had the opportunity to work with Larissa and Jessica to give him tools with self-regulation. They were creative in their play-based approach. He came home with calming jars and told us about the fun games they played. Our son couldn’t wait for his next session each week. Sharon’s team is genuine and talented. We are so grateful for their wisdom and expertise. We especially appreciate sharing our faith with the therapist and including a godly perspective in our sessions. We highly recommend this practice.

I had the pleasure of working with Sharon for years as my practice supervisor and I cannot recommend her enough. From the moment I walked into her office, I felt welcomed and at ease. She has a warm and compassionate demeanor that immediately put me at ease and made me feel comfortable sharing my thoughts and feelings.
Throughout our sessions, Sharon was incredibly attentive and engaged. She listened carefully to everything I had to say and provided thoughtful and insightful feedback. She was always willing to go the extra mile to help me work through my practice issues, work with clients and find solutions that worked for me.
One of the things I appreciated most about Sharon was her ability to create a safe and non-judgmental space for me to explore my emotions. She never made me feel ashamed or embarrassed about anything I shared with her, and instead, she helped me to see my experiences in a new light and find ways to move forward.
I would highly recommend my Sharon to anyone looking for a caring and compassionate professional who truly cares about their clients. She has been an invaluable resource to me and I am so grateful for all of the support and guidance she has provided me with.

Sharon helped me through a very troublesome period of my life. I was in a dark and scary place. My marriage was turbulent and I was terrified and lonely. She was the strong and gentle support I needed to help me come out of it. Sharon helped me realize some things about myself and would offer observations and loving suggestions. Not in a controlling way, but in a way that made me understand that I had the power to make choices and decisions. She worked with my crazy schedule and made an effort to make sure that we could have our sessions together. These things showed me that having a good support system could get me through anything in this life. It gave me courage and led me to so many new and wonderful places in my life. I highly recommend Sharon. She has a gentle, kind, supportive and loving spirit.

Nothing but wonderful things to say about this practice. Sessions have greatly helped my boys to identify and manage their “big feelings.” Guidance/practical plans provided to me as a parent have been very helpful in taking these skills home with us to practice and grow in real life settings. Therapists are caring, considerate, and creative – my oldest is usually difficult to engage due to his special needs, but the therapist was able to connect well with him by connecting on some of his favorite things. Highly recommend!!

My wife has been patient of this practice for over four years, but I am a beneficiary of the time she spend there as well and this is what motivated me to leave his review. Not only counseling and loving caring people of this office transformed her life, our family dynamics, but it really changed my on view on therapy (as a man I just thought you should deal with everything yourself). Thank you for this authentic place and its people that impacted so much my entire family!!!

I spent so many years under the misconception that I didn’t need therapy. Last year when I lost 3 family members and almost a fourth to the COVID-19 pandemic, I found myself in a place of deep sorrow, grief, and hopelessness. God finally opened my eyes to my need for therapy, and He led me to Sharon. Throughout this last year, Sharon has been a source of comfort, kindness, support, and guidance in my life. By being a reliable presence, Sharon has led me to realize many truths of things I have struggled with, and she so graciously and patiently helped me to process each one. It’s a blessing that Sharon is a genuine follower of Christ, and I am grateful to have a counselor that sees and shares things through a Biblical perspective. I feel seen, cared for, and a little bit wiser after each session with Sharon. There are not many people who genuinely listen to everything you have to say, and Sharon is one of the few. She is a caring, gifted, and incredibly intelligent therapist that anyone would be blessed to work with.

I experienced tremendous growth and healing in my (almost) two years with Sharon. Her honesty, support and sweet grace has led me to great breakthroughs and growth as a person and Christian. I feel less stressed, anxious, and depressed – I have tools and the words to express and cope with my stressors, thanks to Sharon and hard work. Not only is she a phenomenal counselor, but I can also message her on my own time when I need quick support over text and a sense of peace. I can sit in my sweats, not be embarrassed to cry, and pour my guts out during our sessions. God sent her to save me during my time of need and she stood up to the call. She is very knowledgeable (she has some of the highest licensing in her field) and the sessions have worked wonders for me in guiding me through tough times and a deep depression/state of despair. As I walk through life with her support, I feel at ease and at peace having the guidance I need along w/God’s word. I have been truly blessed by my treatment and support from Sharon. I came out on the other side of a depression, feeling whole and full of purpose. And now medication free, with her support! Now I look forward to her continued support and guidance as I grow my family and take on new and exciting experiences. Thank you, dear Sharon for meeting me where I was and helping me stand up to life and see the beauty that it and God holds.

I started seeing Samantha in 2020 as I was seeking a trauma informed therapist for my then 5year old daughter. Our family had just suffered an unexpected loss and my husband and I noticed our daughter was acting out of character with physical and emotional aggression- biting and hitting herself and others. We didn’t know where to start or how to help her and felt desperate for guidance and parental support.
Over the next several months, Samantha helped us understand how trauma affects the brain and how the behavioral changes we were seeing in our daughter were ways she was trying to regulate her emotions. Samantha helped us by teaching us skills to help guide our parenting and help our daughter through processing the loss of her grandfather whom she was extremely close.
As my daughter began to show positive changes and attitudes as we were implementing these skills, I found myself curious to explore some of the mixed emotions I was feeling during the counseling sessions with Samantha because I felt so safe and supported by her already.
Not only had Samantha guided me in helping my daughter process the loss of her grandfather she has helped me personally manage anger, panic attacks and depression, toxic self talk and physical manifestations of anxiety.
Samantha is a skilled, intelligent, person focused therapist who takes a holistic approach in her practice which prioritizes physical, mental and spiritual well-being. She has a gentle, nurturing personality and a warm, professional manner in which she practices. Her counsel has helped me recognize some of the patterns of shame, anxiety and toxic messages of trauma in my life. In moments when I wanted to give up she has been a source of safety, encouragement and peace as well as a place where I can share victories as well as the messy complicated stuff. She has helped me accept that this is a healing Journey and that it is ok to not be ok.
I think the biggest impact she has had on my life is that my view of myself and of God has changed for the better since knowing her.
I am just so grateful for Sharon Klein Counseling and for Samantha. Here, you will find a safe and trusting relationship where support and hope in healing is possible.

God led to me to Sharon and her practice in a very transitional time in my life. I had just returned from college and moved back into my parents home after many years. It was during college that I began to develop panic attacks and heightened levels of anxiety, leading down a path of depression. It was also during that time that God pursued me and I became a Christian. Coming back home was tough. I had a career path, but no job. I had some tools from my previous college counselor. But I was lost. So I felt that I should start up counseling again. I googled “christian counselor near me” and God led me to two people, one who didn’t pick up their phone and the other, who I had a good feeling about it. And guess who the latter was? Sharon Klein, yup that’s right. And since I’ve met Sharon, my life has changed for the better. Most weeks that I go in, I find myself unloading my cares and stresses. And not only have I found a confidant in Sharon, but also a very capable and considerate counselor, a true believer in Christ. Through my many interactions with Sharon, God unfolded the things in my life that I held to, the things I struggled with. And whenever I brought them before Sharon, I never felt judged. I always felt cared for. But for the things I held on to selfishly, she gently guided me away from them in prayer and in love. And that’s the beauty behind Sharon and her practice, it’s a ministry for her, not just a job. She truly cares for those who she takes under wings.
