About Sharon
Sharon Beer is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She helps with parenting concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction struggles, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Sharon works with a range of emotional and behavioural problems that make day-to-day life harder.
She practices in a relational, client-led way. That means the person sets the pace and decides what matters most in sessions. Sharon offers empathy, straightforward feedback and a calm space to talk things through.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding patterns and finding realistic steps forward. Sharon studied counselling and psychotherapy up to master’s level over five years. She has three years of recorded experience in therapeutic practice and a BACP accreditation.
Her background means she combines talking therapy with practical ideas tailored to each person. Her approach is integrative - she draws on different therapeutic theories and methods to suit the individual’s needs. In practice that may look like reflecting on attachment and relationship patterns, exploring feelings from past events, and trying out new ways of responding in everyday life.
The tone is warm and direct, with attention to what the person needs now. People who work with Sharon can expect a steady focus on goals they choose. Sessions often include discussion, gentle challenge and practical strategies to manage emotions and behaviour.
She supports those who want clearer boundaries, improved coping and more satisfying relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Sharon works in an integrative, evidence-based way that blends different therapeutic techniques to fit each person. One common focus is on attachment and relational patterns, which looks at how past connections shape current relationships and emotional responses. This approach can help with relationship strain, intimacy issues and patterns that repeat over time.She also uses trauma-informed talking approaches that help people process difficult experiences and reduce the intensity of distressing memories or reactions. These methods involve gradual, careful exploration and practical ways to manage overwhelming feelings. Together these approaches aim to make sense of experiences and build new ways of responding.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon collaborates with each person to agree what to try first and checks in regularly to adjust methods if needed. That collaborative process helps shape goals and the type of techniques used, so therapy stays relevant to the client's needs.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible, ongoing contact between sessions. These options expand access and add convenience while keeping the focus on practical, achievable progress.
