About Sharron

Sharron Giles is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career strain, depression and major life changes. She supports those dealing with relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, anger and coaching needs. Her approach is warm and approachable, and she aims to create a non-judgemental space for talking through difficult feelings.

She tailors sessions to the individual rather than using one fixed method. Sharron practises client-centred work alongside cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic ideas. She also draws on solution-focused strategies to help people find practical steps forward.

Sessions typically begin by identifying what matters most to the client. Conversations cover current problems, patterns that keep them stuck, and small, realistic goals. Sharron uses questioning, reflection and gentle challenge to help people notice different choices and responses.

Across 14 years of professional experience she has worked with a wide range of concerns including codependency, abandonment issues, communication problems, infidelity and complex family situations. Her work also addresses guilt and shame, forgiveness, control issues and recovery from domestic violence or separation.

Sharron offers therapy in English from the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Her practice uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist reflects feelings and priorities so people feel heard and can deepen self-understanding; it helps with low self-esteem, relationship worries and feeling stuck.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and tries small experiments or behaviour changes to reduce anxiety and lift mood.

Psychodynamic ideas pay attention to repeated relationship patterns and early experiences that shape how someone reacts now. This can help with long-standing issues like abandonment, dependency or repeating the same problems in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree on methods together. That means sessions can be adjusted over time as progress and priorities change.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking since the profile does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins if needed. It also means people can continue with talking therapy when they are away from their local area, so therapy fits into everyday life rather than the other way round.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
