About Bethany
Bethany Sharpe is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing depression, grief and major life changes. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk at a pace that feels right for them. Bethany works with people who want to understand their feelings and rebuild everyday coping skills.
She uses a person-centred style, which means she listens with empathy and offers genuine, respectful support. That approach centres the client’s experience and helps people feel heard before moving into practical steps.
Background and approach
Bethany also draws on techniques from other approaches when they suit a person’s needs. Sessions are conversational and grounded in real-life concerns. People can expect to reflect on relationships, self-esteem, grief and the daily habits that affect mood.
The focus is on simple, doable changes rather than complicated jargon. With three years of experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Bethany brings steady, thoughtful support to each meeting. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different schedules.
People who choose to work with her usually start by answering a short matching questionnaire and then booking a first session. Bethany aims to work collaboratively, helping clients set goals and check progress as therapy continues.

Approaches Bethany lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also blends in other practical techniques when they match a person’s needs, using short exercises or coping strategies to address issues such as low mood, grief or difficulties with self-esteem. These additions are chosen to support day-to-day functioning and to complement the person-centred work.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Bethany treats the choice of method as collaborative and will help clients test different ways of working based on goals, preferences and what feels helpful in early sessions.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls let conversations feel close to in-person meetings, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family or travel schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress and practical steps.
