About Sharon
Sharon Horwood is a BACP counsellor with three years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and anger. Sharon also supports those dealing with low self-esteem, grief, life changes and career questions.
She draws on her own lived experience of a life-changing brain injury and the impact it had on family and friends. That personal perspective informs how she listens and talks through practical next steps with people. She treats clients as the expert in their own story and looks for strengths to build on.
Sessions are offered by video call, and messaging is used for the assessment and to arrange appointments. Sharon says she keeps a flexible schedule to help people fit sessions around work and family commitments.
In the counselling room she uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. Conversations tend to centre on what the client wants to change and the small steps they can try between meetings.
Sharon works with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, parenting strain, mood difficulties, panic, dissociation and chronic pain or illness. She is also available to support people exploring life purpose, relationships after infidelity, and questions about self-love and confidence.
People should expect a straightforward, practical way of working that aims to clarify goals and find manageable strategies. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How Client-Centred work translates to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective. The therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear and follows the client's lead. This approach helps people clarify how anger or relationship strain fits into their life and what small changes they might try next.The emphasis is on practical conversation and building on existing strengths. Sessions look at concrete examples of when anger rises, what thoughts and sensations come with it, and what different responses could be tested between meetings. This can suit stress, anxiety, mood challenges and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sharon works collaboratively to decide what feels useful, adjusting techniques and goals as the therapeutic relationship develops. Clients and the counsellor agree what to focus on and how to measure progress.
Her practice offers video call sessions, with messaging used for the assessment and arranging appointments. If you need other formats, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work and caring responsibilities, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time so sessions fit into a busy week.
