About Sharon

Sharon Palmer is a counsellor with 11 years' experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship strains and family problems. She works with individuals who are struggling with self-esteem and the impact of life changes. Sharon practises in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.

Sharon follows a humanistic integrative style, drawing on several evidence-based ideas to shape sessions. She blends approaches so each conversation fits the person's needs rather than forcing a single method.

Background and approach

In practice this means practical conversation, reflective listening and setting manageable goals together. Clients can expect sessions that look at how past experiences shape present feelings. Sharon uses techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns.

She also makes space to notice emotions in the here-and-now and to speak about values and meaning. Therapy is collaborative - the person and counsellor work out small steps that can be tried between sessions. Sharon helps people with communication problems, feelings of abandonment, guilt and shame, and issues such as social anxiety and workplace stress.

Seasonal Affective Disorder and multicultural concerns are also areas she addresses. The practice offers a range of online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Sharon also provides clinical supervision at Silverset Counselling Service.

Booking starts by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works for the person.

Everything Sharon lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Sharon uses an integrative humanistic approach that blends a few evidence-based techniques. Cognitive behavioural ideas help people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and practical behaviours that keep problems going. Gestalt-influenced work encourages noticing present emotions and bodily responses to better understand how feelings show up during daily life.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Sharon will discuss what feels helpful and adapt methods to the person's goals, experiences and preferences. This collaborative approach means the plan can change as new issues or insights arise.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a simpler option with less bandwidth, while live chat and messaging suit quicker check-ins or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats make it possible to fit therapy around work, study or family life and to keep continuity between appointments.
