About Sharron

Sharron Giles is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger and low self‑esteem. She supports people facing career difficulties, depression, relationship strain, grief and life changes. Sharron works to create a warm, non‑judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken plainly.

She uses a mix of practical approaches chosen to fit each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that can make daily life easier. Conversations may look at unhelpful thought patterns, past experiences that still matter, and realistic solutions for current problems.

Sharron trained and practises in approaches such as Client‑Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy. She adapts these methods so they suit the person in front of her rather than following a single formula. This helps when people need both short‑term coping tools and deeper reflection.

Her background includes 14 years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That combination informs a blend of supportive listening and practical techniques. Sharron aims to balance empathy with clear guidance during sessions.

Working together begins with understanding what matters to the individual. Sharron encourages small, manageable changes and builds on what already works. She offers a steady, respectful approach for people ready to take the next step.

How Sharron adapts therapeutic approaches for online work

Sharron uses Client‑Centred Therapy to build a trusting space where people can speak without feeling judged; this approach focuses on listening, empathy and helping the person find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which is useful for anxiety, anger and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made or new needs appear.

Practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a busy week and fewer travel demands. Online work can make shorter check‑in sessions easier to arrange or allow people to access support while away from their usual area. Confirm the current session options with the service before booking to know which formats are offered.
