Life can be difficult. You are not alone. Whether you're feeling the pressure of life, feeling overwhelmed with feelings, or just not sure how to cope or move forward, I can listen and help and support you.

As a qualified, accredited and experienced Integrative Counsellor I provide a warm, non-judgemental, empathic, safe and confidential environment where we can work together. I integrate different counselling theories and tailor these to meet your needs. We work collaboratively to explore and understand your feelings. I am also a qualified Clinical Supervisor which involves supervising the work of other counsellors.

Warm Wishes.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I have been speaking with Sharon for 4 weeks now and I love how gentle and calm she is. At the same time she is expressive and really helps to open me up. She gives you space to talk but if you can’t talk she speaks and reassures you. She is wonderful and I am really enjoying working with her.

A fantastic therapist. I've been having sessions with Sharon for 5weeks now, and we've made some fantastic break-throughs. She takes time to really listen to me and remembers all that I tell her. She's brilliant at asking the right questions to connect the threads whilst giving me constant and consistent support and guidance. This has truely been an eye-opening, yet exciting journey. Highly reccomend!
