About Sharon
Sharon Silver is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience and a BACP credential. She offers one-to-one support and aims to build a steady therapeutic relationship that helps people feel more balanced in mind and body.
Sharon presents therapy as a practical step toward change and encourages people to see reaching out as a sign of strength. She uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs rather than a one-size-fits-all method.
How Sharon works
Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical ways to manage stress, anxiety, low mood and panic. Sharon also works with people facing grief and loss, helping them name and process intense emotions and the physical effects that can follow bereavement. Many clients come for help with self-esteem and relationship concerns, including challenges around parenting and blended family situations.
Sharon also supports those dealing with trauma, compassion fatigue, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and life changes. Her practice includes attention to attachment-related issues and abandonment worries. Her style is warm, accepting and collaborative.
She encourages people to try new ways of responding to difficult feelings and to develop skills through practice. Sessions are paced to each person's comfort and practical needs. Sharon offers sessions in English and welcomes international clients.
Therapy can be arranged through an online subscription system and scheduled to suit each person.

How Sharon's approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that fit their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical techniques to reduce symptoms like panic, worry and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections, which can help with intimacy issues and longstanding trust or abandonment concerns.Finding the best approach is a shared process. Sharon will explore your goals, preferences and situations and suggest which methods to try first. She adjusts the plan over time so it matches what is helping you in real life.
Online sessions offer flexibility and practical convenience. Video calls let you use visual cues and a fuller conversation, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins or when writing helps you reflect. These options make it easier to get regular support around work, caring commitments or when travel is difficult, while still working with registered or accredited professionals.
