Therapeutic approaches and online support

Sharon uses an integrative blend of established approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathic relationship where the client’s own goals and values guide the work - this approach helps with self-esteem, relationship issues and navigating major life decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression and stress management. Trauma-focused therapy attends directly to the impacts of traumatic experiences, using structured techniques to reduce distress and support recovery from abuse or overwhelming events.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sharon will work collaboratively with clients to explore which methods feel most helpful, adjusting her recommendations based on the client’s history, goals and preferences, and drawing on her clinical experience as a registered professional.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - clients can meet by video call, speak by phone, or use live chat and text-based messaging to fit sessions into busy lives or to access care from different locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of support, attend sessions during transitions, and choose the mode of communication that feels most comfortable.
