Brain matters counselling

I’m Sharon, a qualified Advanced EMDR Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, DBT Therapist, Clinical Supervisor & Trainer. I’m very much an “out of the box” therapist, with a flexible approach because I don’t believe therapy should be one-size-fits-all. I work with the person in front of me, adapting the tools and techniques I use to suit you, your needs and what feels right for you.
I support adults and couples experiencing trauma, PTSD/CPTSD, anxiety, stress, emotional overwhelm, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, EUPD, relationship difficulties, grief and those times when you know something isn’t right but can’t quite put your finger on it.
As someone with my own experience of being undiagnosed AuDHD, I understand how confusing it can be when you feel different, overwhelmed or like you’re constantly trying to work yourself out. My own experiences, alongside my professional training, help me understand just how difficult it can be to reach out and talk to someone you’ve never met before.
My style is warm, down-to-earth and non-judgemental. Therapy doesn’t have to be stiff, overly clinical or full of complicated words — and yes, it’s okay to swear!
If you’re wondering whether therapy with me might be right for you, I offer a free 20-minute initial chat. There’s no pressure to commit — it’s simply a chance for us to have a chat, see what you’re looking for and decide whether I’m the right fit for you.
