About Sharron

Sharron Giles is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship troubles. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, career pressures and major life changes. Sharron works with people who are struggling with communication problems, commitment worries, codependency and issues around intimacy and trust.

Her manner is warm, approachable and non-judgemental. She aims to create an open space where clients can talk about difficult feelings and thoughts. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to each person and finding practical steps that feel manageable.

Sharron uses a mix of approaches tailored to the individual. She draws on client-centred ideas to keep the work focused on the person's experience. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thinking and psychodynamic thinking to look at deeper patterns.

She holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sharron has 14 years of experience working with people in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients who can access her services from abroad.

Sharron encourages small, steady changes rather than quick fixes. She works with each client to agree goals and a way of working that fits their life. If someone is ready to start, the next step is to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of the sessions. The counsellor listens deeply and follows the person's pace, helping them find clarity and make choices about change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety and low mood. Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns from earlier relationships and how they may shape present feelings and reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk about different methods and help you pick what feels most useful for your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and changes can be made as progress unfolds.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also allow people to join from different locations, which can help those living abroad. The focus remains on practical tools, clearer thinking and exploring patterns, regardless of how sessions are arranged.
