Sharon Redmond, AASW

Sharon Redmond is an AASW social worker with three years of professional experience in Australia. She works with adults who are managing relationship strain, parenting pressures, anxiety, depression and major life changes. Sharon also supports people dealing with grief, addictions, eating concerns, and career or motivation issues.

Sharon uses straightforward talking and active listening during sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help people spot unhelpful patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to build practical values-led goals. Attachment-based ideas inform her approach to relationship and family-related concerns.

Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and on small steps that can be practiced between meetings. Sharon offers coaching-style conversations for people wanting clearer goals around work or parenting. She helps people develop coping skills for stress, anger and low self-esteem.

Sharon aims for clear, respectful conversations rather than jargon. She encourages clients to try short, manageable experiments between sessions and to reflect on what works. Her background includes work with diverse concerns such as LGBT issues, bipolar mood challenges, and blended family matters.

People often come to Sharon for practical help with communication problems, codependency and commitment concerns. She also supports adults facing ageing and caregiver stress, attachment wounds, or the effects of trauma and abuse. If someone is unsure whether therapy or coaching fits their situation, she helps clarify those options.
