Therapeutic approaches and working online
Sharon often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and choose small actions that reflect those values rather than get stuck in unhelpful thoughts. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by focusing on values-driven steps.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises people can do between sessions to test and change patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, mood issues, and social fears.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She will check in about what feels helpful and adjust strategies over time so sessions stay relevant and manageable.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people try a method of working without changing much of their daily routine, which can help test new skills in real life.
