Sharon Boyd

Sharon Boyd is a warm, friendly counsellor who supports people facing anger and other life challenges. She works with relationship problems, grief, anxiety, low mood and stress. Sharon uses a person-centred style to help people feel heard and understood, and she aims to make the first steps into therapy less daunting.

Sharon has seven years of practice and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy codes of ethics, and she focuses on treating each person as an individual rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions. Sessions give people space to talk through feelings and situations at their own pace.

In sessions she draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to suit what the person needs in the moment. That might mean spending time exploring feelings, or working on practical steps to change a specific behaviour. Sharon keeps explanations plain and aims to set realistic, achievable goals with each person.

She also has experience with issues that often sit alongside anger, such as parenting strain, intimacy concerns, career stress, sleep and eating difficulties, and compassion fatigue. Sharon is based in the United Kingdom and conducts work in English only.

People who choose to work with her can expect a compassionate, non-judgemental approach. She emphasises collaboration, listens carefully, and helps people find practical ways to move forward from the problems they bring.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the person’s lead. The therapist offers empathy, acceptance and time to help someone feel understood. This approach can help with anger, grief, low mood and relationship strain by creating space to name and process feelings.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes. It asks what a person wants to achieve and looks for what already works, then builds on that. This can be useful for stress, sleep or eating issues and for people who want clear, goal-oriented sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey and will be decided together. The therapist will talk about what feels most helpful and adapt methods to match the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape how sessions progress.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can also tailor pacing and homework to suit everyday life and commitments.
