About Sharron

Sharron Giles is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 14 years of professional experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career worries, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues linked to intimacy and anger.

Sharron listens without judging and gives people space to talk about real problems. Sessions are straightforward and practical. She aims to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck and to try different ways of coping more effectively.

Her work draws on a few different approaches. She uses client-centred ideas to follow what matters most to the client. Cognitive behavioural techniques help with thoughts and behaviours that feed anxiety or low mood. Psychodynamic ideas look at long-standing patterns that repeat in relationships. Solution-focused methods help set small, achievable goals and notice change quickly.

In session she often combines short practical exercises with time to talk about past experiences. That mix can help with immediate symptoms and with deeper issues that have built up over time. She also offers coaching-style support for career and motivation concerns.

Sessions are conducted in English from the United Kingdom and she accepts international clients. Fees vary with location and use a cancellable subscription model. To start, use the online matching questionnaire and book an initial appointment.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches work online

Sharron draws on client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in her online practice. Client-centred work means the conversation follows what matters most to the person and builds from their priorities. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to make sense of feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and gives simple tools to reduce anxiety, low mood or unhelpful behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She discusses options with each person and chooses techniques together based on the client’s goals and preferences. That collaborative planning includes deciding whether to focus on short-term practical steps, exploring longer-term patterns, or a mix of both.

The original biography did not specify which online session formats are used. Please confirm the available formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life, for example by saving travel time, enabling shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoiding the need to be on camera if that feels difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can still offer focused, practical therapy work over distance.
