Luke Sharman MA, LGSW, Therapist

Welcome. If you are seeking or considering therapy, congratulations on an important step in your journey. My name is Luke, and I am a mental health professional and a masters of social work student at the College of St. Scholastica. Since 2021 I have been honored to support children, teens and adults during some of the most challenging times in their lives. In session, I create and maintain an environment of safety, focus on your strengths, and celebrate all the things that make you, you.

I work with clients of all life stages, backgrounds, and therapeutic needs and goals. I have a particular passion for relationship therapy and supporting people in building, repairing, and maintaining healthy relationships of all types, shapes and sizes. To this end, I am currently training in both Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples and the Gottman Method, two of the strongest current evidence-based therapeutic models to support relational health.

My goal is to work alongside you to help you live the life you want as your most authentic self. Whatever your goals and current challenges, I would be honored to join you on your journey.
