About Sharon
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience helping people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and life changes. Sharon Strickland works with adults and young adults on issues including depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and parenting struggles. She uses person-focused and talking therapies to help people understand what they're feeling and work out next steps.
Sharon listens to what matters most to each person and centres sessions on the issues they bring. She blends Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy, using ideas from each to suit the conversation. Sessions are collaborative and practical, with time spent on thinking about patterns, thoughts and behaviours.
People often come for help with panic symptoms, social anxiety, phobias, anger or difficulties with communication and control. Sharon also supports those dealing with body image, guilt and shame, isolation, and problems rooted in attachment and past abuse. She takes a straightforward approach to these topics so people can identify small, manageable changes.
Her background includes work with adults and young adults and supervision of other counsellors. Sharon holds BACP as her listed credential and practises in the UK. Conversations are conducted in English and she does not take international clients.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping people lead the conversation. It is useful for exploring feelings, building self-understanding and working through relationship and family concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It involves practical exercises and skill-building for issues like anxiety, panic, phobias and low mood.
Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to past experiences and patterns that affect current reactions. It can help when ongoing patterns, attachment issues or repeated relationship problems are a concern.
Choosing the right method is part of the process. Sharon will work collaboratively to identify which approach or combination suits a person's needs, goals and preferences. This is reviewed as work progresses rather than fixed at the start.
Confirm the session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into everyday life by removing travel time and allowing appointments around work or study. They can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed or avoid video when bandwidth is limited.
