About Sharon
Sharon Boyd is a counsellor who helps people work through depression, anxiety, grief and relationship strain. She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence and aims to make those first steps feel easier. Sharon has seven years' practical experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials.
In sessions she listens first and follows the person's pace. Conversations focus on what matters to the individual. Sharon gives space to talk about feelings, thoughts and the small day-to-day things that affect mood.
Background and approach
Her core style is client-centred therapy. That means therapy is shaped around the person's experience rather than a rigid agenda. She also uses solution-focused ideas to spot practical steps and small changes that can make life more manageable.
Sharon has worked with a wide range of concerns, including stress, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, career issues, compassion fatigue and intimacy-related worries. She also supports people facing bereavement, divorce, illness and ageing-related challenges. Sessions are available in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
Sharon follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy code of ethics in her work. People typically begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking a time that fits their schedule. Sharon aims to help clients notice practical shifts and to build on strengths they already have.

Online support
Solution-focused therapy looks for small practical steps that can lead to improvement. It focuses on strengths, exceptions to the problem and achievable goals. This method suits people who want short-term, goal‑oriented work alongside deeper listening.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will discuss different options and decide together which methods fit the person's needs, goals and preferences. That way the plan can change if something isn't working and the person keeps an active role in shaping sessions.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit around work or travel. Live chat or text messaging can provide quick check-ins and flexible ways to communicate between longer meetings. These options make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into a busy life.
