Therapeutic approaches and online care

Sharon offers a blend of person-centered and evidence-informed methods to help people manage everyday stresses and deeper emotional concerns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective, offering empathy and acceptance to encourage personal growth and stronger self-esteem. This approach suits people working through relationship issues, self-worth concerns, or the emotional aftermath of life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more adaptive patterns. It is practical and goal-oriented, often used for anxiety, low mood, stress management and coping with intrusive thoughts. Mindfulness Therapy complements these approaches by teaching present-focused awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and increase emotional balance.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sharon will work with each client to understand their needs, goals and preferences and adapt techniques accordingly so therapy feels relevant and effective. Registered professionals often combine methods to suit the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging provides flexibility for people with busy schedules or mobility constraints. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home or on the go, maintain continuity during life transitions, and fit therapeutic work into everyday life.
