Background and approach

She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, practical steps that make a difference day to day. Sessions aim to balance listening with clear, workable ideas tailored to each person. Sharon trained and practises with professional recognition from BACP and NCPS.

Over seven years she has helped clients cope with bereavement, divorce and separation, infidelity, domestic violence impacts, ageing and cancer-related concerns. She also offers support around hospice and end-of-life matters and feelings of emptiness, guilt or shame. Sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs.

Sharon uses a subscription model for sessions, which can be cancelled at any time and varies with location and therapist availability. She follows the BACP codes of ethics in her work. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Sharon aims to help people notice gradual change and regain a clearer sense of direction.

How Client-Centred and Solution-Focused Work Online

Client-Centred Therapy centres on giving people space to tell their story and feel heard. The counsellor reflects what is said, supports self-understanding and follows the client’s pace. This approach suits grief, low mood, relationship concerns and times of major change.

Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical steps and clear goals. It helps identify what is already working and builds on those strengths to move forward. This can be useful for stress, anxiety, parenting challenges and practical relationship problems.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Sharon will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together they choose methods that feel most helpful. The counsellor may combine listening with short, action-oriented tasks so progress feels tangible.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video lets people see facial cues and keep a stronger sense of connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options provide flexibility so counselling can fit around daily life.
