About Bethany

Bethany Sharpe is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with people facing grief, intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes, and she lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas.

Bethany uses a person-centred approach that keeps conversations paced to each person's comfort. Sessions are conversational and aim to help people talk through difficult feelings and make clearer choices. She blends the person-centred model with ideas from other approaches when clients would benefit from different ways of working.

People come to her for a range of concerns such as attachment issues, body image struggles, communication problems and divorce or separation. Bethany also supports clients dealing with eating and food-related issues, guilt and shame, isolation and questions about life purpose.

She works with mood-related problems, post-traumatic stress, and experiences around pregnancy and childbirth. Bethany lists sexuality, self-love and intimacy-related concerns among her focus areas as well.

Sessions follow the pace set by the client, with space to reflect and try new ways of thinking or behaving. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on attentive listening and reflecting back what a person says. The counsellor aims to understand feelings and help the person clarify their own goals. This approach can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, grief, relationship concerns and social anxiety where someone needs space to make sense of their experience.

Bethany also draws on techniques from other therapeutic approaches when a different method could help with a specific problem. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process - the therapist and client will talk about preferences, practical needs and what feels most helpful, then try ways of working that suit the person.

Confirm the exact session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into day to day life by reducing travel and offering more flexible timings. They can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video if that better suits someone. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find online work helps people maintain continuity of care while managing practical constraints.
