How Sharon's approaches work online

Sharon uses a person-centred (Client-Centred) approach that focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. This method helps when someone needs to be heard, to explore feelings, or to regain confidence in decision-making.

She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and try practical steps between sessions. That approach suits people who want clear, manageable tasks to test new ways of coping and to measure small changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most useful based on needs, goals and preferences. The plan can be adjusted as sessions progress so the method fits the individual.

If you prefer online sessions, check the available formats when booking as these are confirmed at sign-up. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer talking without being on camera or who need a session during a break from work. Confirm the current session options before scheduling to be sure they match your situation.
