About Sharon
Sharon Gurr is a BACP counsellor who focuses on practical ways to make life easier. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction issues and grief. She also supports those coping with relationship strains, parenting challenges, sleep and eating difficulties, and the impact of trauma and past hurt.
Sharon draws on a mix of well known counselling approaches to shape sessions around each person. She aims to help people make sense of their history and find clearer next steps. Sessions are presented in a warm, calm way that encourages reflection and steady change.
Her work pays attention to how past attachments and relationships affect current choices. She uses talking, simple exercises and sometimes creative techniques to tackle overwhelming emotions. Practical tools are offered so people can use them between sessions.
With five years of experience listed alongside a BACP credential, she brings focused practice in areas such as ADHD, bipolar mood difficulties, compassion fatigue and caring for someone with chronic illness. Sharon also supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, and communication problems.
The aim is to help people close difficult chapters and move forward with more confidence. She encourages self-understanding and gradual change rather than quick fixes. If someone is ready to take a step, Sharon invites them to begin a clearer, more manageable path.
How Sharon's approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going and practising small shifts that reduce distress. It can help with depression, sleep problems and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current responses and can be useful for relationship or attachment worries.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that suit the person. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so techniques feel relevant and manageable rather than imposed.
The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online counselling lets them fit sessions into busy weeks, avoid travel time and use shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can make it easier to practise tools between sessions and to continue therapy when life circumstances change. Registered or accredited professionals typically adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so progress can continue even when meeting digitally.
