Sharon is hands down the best therapist I have worked with. She understands me so well, I finally feel understood, seen and heard. Abd she always manages to help me in working through my issues in a way that I see I make progress and I learn different tools to achieve that. She creates a safe place to heal. Very empathetic. I honestly am so grateful I found her. I searched for a long time. She is just the right person in the right job. Rare find. Clear recommendation.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Sharon really helped me work through some difficult mental stresses and painful memories from the past. It's helped me feel more centred and I use her suggestions regularly to help me feel more positive and proactive in life. I'd recommend her highly.
Great listener, guiding me to understand my emotions. She asks questions that helps me think about I feel a certain way. She is very empathetic and supportive.
She’s wonderful
Sharon is attentive and actively listens to what I am sharing. She suggest useful interventions to support me to work through my challenges. I feel safe in the counselling room.
Sharon had supported me through early motherhood and the challenges that had presented me mentally. She's a supportive, kind and offers helpful insight and solutions to my issues.
Sharin is very friendly and very knowledgeable and helps me a great deal
Sharon is very kind and engaging. She has listened tentatively to me and asked me questions that have allowed me to assess the situations in different ways. In all honesty, she is the best therapist I've ever worked with.
Sharon has been a wonderful and deep helper, she's accommodated for my work schedule whenever I ask and has been completely open about her therapeutic techniques. Her tone and concern are always clearly honest and, if you want it, her ability to reduce the "therapy" feel of the conversation is top tier. With her assistance I have confronted many past demons and have been able to express more confidence without guilt than ever before.
Sharon is a fantastic therapist and really understands what I'm going through and has helped me lots, couldn't recommend more
Sharon is super nice and calm. She listened to me well and helped me to find myself again. Thanks Sharon for our every session.
Following having my first child and the aftermath of working for yourself after a pandemic Sharon helped me worked through some mental struggles that were holding me back from moving forward. She has a calm, consistent style which worked well for me, I felt like I had life coach and therapist in one, which I think is what I needed. She suggested some tools to help me work through things that were making me stressed or anxious. Would highly recommend.
Sharon is great! She is a great listener and has given useful advice for getting through a crisis
An incredibly down to earth and reality driven therapist who makes me feel heard, understood and is willing to allow me to engage with some tough stuff
Sharon has really helped me in trying to deal with the negative thoughts I get and has provided me with great tool
Very good listener and approachable to my issue
She is an amazing listener. She made me feel safe to be vulnerable and reflective.
I am finding this process and the exchange with Sharon to be very helpful and clarifying for my issues, with a resolution as the aim.
So far Sharon has been much more understanding and reassuring, as well as present, than any of the 2 previous therapists I've tried, despite not being in person. She seems to be trying her best to understand everything that's bothering me, and she's doing a very good job at that. Of course it's not always possible to understand someone's situation entirely accurately from a few 45' meetings, but from the information she has so far she's doing a great job.
Sharon is very kind and warms my heart to speak with her weekly. She takes her time with me and help me understand things or see things in a different perspective. She is very supportive and I have complete and utter faith in her work. This is my first ever therapy and I couldn’t be happier to have with it with someone like Sharon.
Sharon has allowed me to open up and really share most of the things I keep to myself in my 1st 3 sessions with her. She listens intently and really tries to get to the root of each behaviour and my way of thinking. This is my first ever experience with therapy and she has made a very welcoming enviroment. I am immensely grateful to Sharon and this platform.
