My working days are Tuesday to Thursday when I provide day and eveming sessions and Friday mornings

As a Supervisor I believe supervision should offer an enriching and stimulating experience, with creative exploration, where knowledge and understanding are shared in a collaborative manner.

I aim to offer a supportive and safe environment, be open and honest in an encouraging way and be proactive in providing insight.

My theoretical approach to supervision is guided by the framework of Hawkins and Shohet's seven eyed model, a reflective and relational approach, workable with any counselling or psychoanalytical modality.

At present, alongside private practice, I supervise at an entity where staff are working with young people, offering both group and one to one supervision. Offer group supervision at a large London based charity working with clients from, homelessness, moderns slavery, domestic violence and mental health and offer supervision to NHS staff at a local hospital.

I have created an affordable counselling service at two Children's Centres and a Mental Health Trust. Therefore, can help with the setting up of such projects. 

I  have over 30 years experience working in either education or families and children's social care, where I have gained experience which enhances my supervison practice.

I offer supervision for work with individuals, couples, families and young people, for both experienced and trainee counsellors.  

Supervision is available at a cost of £60 per hour, on a sliding scale for student counsellors and newly qualified practitioners setting up their own practice.

Twice monthly (45 mins) in line with BACP requirements of 1.5 h monthly supervision, is available if preferred.

What to expect from me

My working days are Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, when I offer both day and evening appointments.  Thursday evening and Friday mornings.

Hello, my name is Sharon. I offer warmth, understanding, and a genuine commitment to supporting you through the challenges that bring you to therapy. As an experienced Counsellor and Psychotherapist, I work with a wide range of issues including complex childhood trauma, neurodiversity, anxiety, depression, anger, low self-esteem, challenging family and relationship issues, addiction, grief, loss and many more.

I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can feel valued, respected, and free to explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace.

Over the years, I have had the privilege of supporting many clients through their personal journeys. Working alongside them as they face challenges, discover their strengths, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves has been both meaningful and rewarding.

I believe therapy is a process of developing greater self-awareness by exploring both past and present experiences. It is not about striving for perfection, but about moving towards acceptance of the whole self. Through reflection and exploration, therapy can help remove obstacles, create new perspectives, and support a more balanced and sustainable way of managing life’s challenges.

With a compassionate, authentic, and supportive approach, I will work alongside you on your journey of growth and self-discovery. My practice is based in the peaceful village of Brockham, offering a calm and relaxing setting for therapy.

Before training as a counsellor, I spent over twenty-five years working in education and social care with children and families. This experience has given me valuable insight that continues to enrich my therapeutic work.

 My therapeutic approach is primarily relational and psychodynamic, focusing on the deeper unconscious patterns and experiences that may influence how you respond to life today.

Alongside this, I  integrate techniques from other therapeutic modalities including CBT, Gestalt Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy.  I  may also use creative approaches such as artwork and visualisation, tailoring therapy to meet the unique needs of each individual client.

I  offer face-to-face essions in a private practice room located at the front of my property, with free parking available, in the beautiful village of Brockham.

Online therapy is also available via Zoom, Teams WhatsApp or telephone, depending on your preference. 

Finding the right counsellor is an important part of the therapeutic process.  I  therefore offer a free initial 20-minute consultation via phone or Zoom.  This gives you the opportunity to ask any questions and share what has bought you to therapy.

If you feel I  am the right counsellor for you, we can then arrange ongoing weekly or fortnightly sessions.

Counselling sessions for individuals, are £60 per 50 mins session, with concessions available, offered on a sliding scale, based on individual circumstances.

Couples and family therapy £75 for I hour
