About Sharn

Sharn Stewart is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD and life changes. Sharn also focuses on social anxiety and phobia alongside related concerns such as panic attacks and isolation.

Sharn uses an integrative, person-centred style. She listens to what matters to each person and adapts ways of working to suit their situation. Sessions are intended to help people make sense of difficult experiences and how those events affect relationships with themselves and others.

She pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues, and to struggles with self-worth, guilt and shame. Practical matters such as impulsivity, communication problems and control issues are also addressed. Sharn can help people who feel stuck while thinking about life purpose or coping with changes.

Her work also covers trauma-related concerns including post-traumatic stress and panic disorder. She supports people dealing with body image, mood disorders and feelings of isolation. Conversations aim to identify patterns and try new ways of responding to stressful situations.

Sharn has experience supporting people in higher education settings as well as staff and students. She draws on a mix of evidence-based techniques alongside a person-centred foundation. To start, she asks about what’s going on now and what the person hopes to change, then shapes sessions from there.

How therapeutic methods work online

Sharn draws on evidence-based techniques alongside a person-centred foundation. One approach often used helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving; this can be useful for anxiety, panic and social fears. Another common strand focuses on trauma-informed methods that help people map how past events affect current feelings and relationships, offering ways to process distressing memories and reduce their everyday impact.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about symptoms, goals and what feels manageable, then work together to try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. Progress is reviewed and adjustments are made when something isn’t working.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and study commitments and other daily tasks. They may allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or sessions without needing to travel. If you want to know which session formats are offered, confirm the current options before booking so you can pick what suits your routine.
