About

About me

Hello, my name is Sharon and I practice Councelling and Psychotherapy in the heart of St. Albans with clients face to face and online.


Counselling and Psychotherapy became a later career choice for me after suffering many years of anxiety and self doubt.  My experiences of therapy were truly life changing so, for this reason, it has become my niche. However, there are many areas I can help you with.


I hold a Professional Diploma in Psychotheraputic Counselling and a Certificate in Hypnotherapy Counselling ( Prof.Dip.Psyc, Cert Hyp.C) I have covered many areas in Continuing Professional Development since qualifying.


I am an Integrative Therapist, which means I am trained to a professional standard in many different types of therapy, including Person Centred Counselling, Psychodynamic Analysis and  Behavioural Therapies. We are all individuals and as such, I like to use the therapeutic approach that best suits you, which is often a combination.

Sometimes life gets too much, and we can feel completely overwhelmed. I can offer you a safe space to explore the challenges that you are facing. Making the first step to speak to someone is a very courageous move but it will be the start of a journey that I can support you with, where you can work through different issues and find opportunities for change. Sharing your concerns in a warm, compassionate environment without judgement, will lead to better understanding, self-esteem, and life fulfilment.The most important part of therapy is the feeling of being heard and trusting your counsellor. I will listen and offer support and guidance, helping you find perspective when faced with uncertainty in life, in whatever form it presents itself.

“I was initially unsure about whether counselling would be able to help me with the anxiety and stress that I felt going through day to day life but I cannot believe how impactful my sessions with Sharon have been."
