A thoughtful place to begin.About Sharon

I am a BACP-accredited counsellor and psychotherapist with over 25 years’ experience across NHS, education, voluntary-sector and private-practice settings. I am also a Bupa-recognised practitioner and provide online and telephone therapy.
I work integratively and in a trauma-informed way, supporting adults, couples, children and young people. In recent years, much of my work has focused on neurodivergence—including ADHD, autism and AuDHD—with particular attention to masking, burnout, emotional regulation, communication and relationships.
My work is informed by extensive professional training in counselling, cognitive behavioural approaches and advanced holistic hypnotherapy, alongside continuing specialist development in neurodivergence and trauma.
“My interest in human behaviour began in 1996 and continues to shape how I learn, listen and work today.”
Ways to work together
A trusting relationship, privacy and emotional safety are central to my work. We can agree a pace that suits your needs, whether that is weekly, fortnightly or occasional review sessions.
One-to-one therapy for adults.
Support for the relationship as a whole, with space for respectful communication and greater understanding.
Therapy for younger clients. A parent or caregiver may take part in some sessions where appropriate.
The practical side
Sessions are 60 minutes unless we agree otherwise. Video and telephone appointments are available, and face-to-face sessions may be arranged by agreement.
For self-funded sessions, payment is due at least 24 hours in advance. Please give at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel; a later cancellation may be charged at the full fee.
Private health insurance can be used once the relevant authorisation and membership details are in place.
I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor & Psychotherapist and work within the BACP Ethical Framework. BACP Register no. 00573624.
