Sharon Beer
Compassionate, client‑led counselling for complex life challenges
About Sharon
Sharon Beer helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, addiction and intimacy concerns. Sharon also works with issues around eating, sleeping, parenting, self‑esteem and compassion fatigue.
She speaks English and sees people in the United Kingdom. Sharon offers a relational, client‑led style. Clients set the agenda and decide what they want to work on.
Sessions focus on understanding thoughts, feelings and behaviours and on finding practical ways to cope day to day.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to be direct, warm and respectful. She studied counselling and psychotherapy up to master's level over five years and has three years of professional experience. Sharon is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Her practice is integrative. That means she draws on different therapeutic ideas to suit each person. In sessions she listens for patterns such as attachment or avoidance and uses that understanding to shape the work.
People often come with complex issues like family conflict, separation, infidelity or long‑standing feelings of isolation. Sharon helps break problems into manageable steps and supports clients as they try new ways of relating and coping. If someone prefers a practical short course or a longer, reflective process, she adapts the work to fit their goals.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then book through the Start Therapy button. Scheduling is arranged according to the therapist's availability and the site's subscription model.

Approaches that shape online therapy
Sharon works in an integrative way, drawing on evidence‑based therapeutic techniques to meet individual needs. One common approach is relational work, which focuses on the patterns that show up in relationships and how they affect feelings and behaviour. This can help with attachment issues, intimacy concerns and ongoing difficulties in relating to others.Another approach is practical, skills‑based work that targets anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. This involves learning and practising tools for managing strong emotions, improving sleep and changing unhelpful routines or behaviours.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Sharon collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit best with their goals, needs and preferences. She listens to what works for the individual and adjusts the way she works as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat and text‑based messaging for flexibility. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and visual feedback, phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth, and chat or messaging is useful for brief check‑ins or ongoing written support. These options help make therapy easier to arrange around work, childcare and travel.
