About Sharon

Sharon Silver is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and anger. She also supports those facing relationship difficulties, parenting strains, self-esteem problems and sleep or eating concerns.

Sharon offers one-to-one work built around an integrative approach. That means she draws on different ways of working to match what a person needs in the moment. Her sessions aim to build a reliable working relationship so people can talk through difficult feelings and patterns of reacting.

Her background includes focused work with attachment-related difficulties, abandonment and commitment issues. She also supports people with ADHD-related challenges, caregiver stress and compassion fatigue. Her practice covers both emotional reactions to life changes and ongoing problems such as control or codependency issues.

Sharon uses a mix of methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas, attachment-based thinking, client-centred methods and mindfulness practice. In plain terms this means she helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings, try different ways of responding, and clarify what matters to them.

People who contact her are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session. Sharon works with adults and accepts clients from outside the UK as well. Sessions sit within a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Sharon uses therapeutic approaches online

Sharon commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas when working with anger and related issues. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values; it can help with impulsive reactions and building calmer responses. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence present reactions and helps people understand how they relate to others during conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences, adjusting the focus as needs become clearer over sessions. That way the plan evolves from what matters to the client and what helps them manage strong emotions more effectively.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, or allow for quieter check-ins that do not require being on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can use these practical advantages to help keep therapy consistent with everyday life.
