About Sharon

BACP, NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. Sharon Boyd helps people with relationship and family concerns, grief, anxiety, loss of confidence, stress, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strains and career matters. She uses Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide her work.

Sharon listens first and then works with each person to agree practical steps they can try between sessions. She focuses on what is happening now and on short-term goals that reduce pressure. Conversations are straightforward and aim to make problems feel more manageable.

In sessions Sharon explores relationships and intimacy issues, including jealousy, infidelity and separation. She also supports people facing ageing and geriatric concerns, cancer, hospice and end-of-life matters, or the emotional effects of divorce and domestic violence. She addresses feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame and compassion fatigue.

Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which emphasises the person's own experience and personal choices, and Solution-Focused Therapy, which looks for small changes that lead to better coping. She uses these methods to help people set clear, practical steps and to build on what already works for them.

Sharon follows the BACP codes of ethics and is a member of BACP and NCPS. Sessions are conducted in English. International clients are not currently accepted. To begin, people use a matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the centre. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows what matters to the client. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings about relationships, grief or self-esteem.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, realistic changes. Conversations identify actions a person can try between meetings and measure what improves. This method is useful for stress, anxiety, coping with life changes and practical problems like sleep or work pressures.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will work collaboratively with each person to decide which method or mix of methods suits their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as issues shift.

The original biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm the available session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy around daily life, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt conversation length and focus to match a client's schedule and goals, so practical arrangements are agreed together before the first session.
