About Sharron
Sharron Giles is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 14 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career difficulties, depression, relationship strain, family problems and grief. She also works with concerns such as trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, anger and coaching for life change.
Sharron uses straightforward talking therapy. Sessions are focused on what is causing strain at home and what practical steps might reduce it. She listens to how daily life is affecting mood and relationships, and she works with each person to set simple goals they can try between sessions.
Her approach combines client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic ideas. That means she pays attention to current problems, the patterns that keep them going, and how early experiences can still affect present behaviour. She also draws on solution-focused tools to help people identify small, useful changes.
Sharron aims to be involving rather than directive. She offers reflective conversation, practical exercises and gradual steps to test what helps. Sessions can include problem-solving for parenting stress, coping strategies for anxiety, and work on communication habits that cause conflict.
She accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, so billing follows a recurring plan based on location. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session scheduled.
How sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Sharron commonly uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in her practice. Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says so they can make sense of difficult feelings. It helps when someone needs space to talk through relationship or parenting strain. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and introduces practical steps to change them. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharron will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. The process is collaborative and may change over time as practical strategies are tested and adjusted.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which online options are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings, or avoid being on camera when that helps them focus. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use online work to make sessions more practical for everyday life.
