Sharon Silver , BACP

Sharon Silver offers a warm, professional approach to psychotherapy that adapts to each person she meets. She practices in an integrative way, combining techniques from different therapeutic models so that the work is tailored to the client rather than forcing a single method. In one-to-one sessions Sharon prioritizes a collaborative therapeutic relationship that aims to restore balance in mind, body, and spirit and to help clients take practical steps toward change.

With nine years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Sharon holds the BACP credential, a professional counselling association in the UK. She supports people with a wide range of concerns including anxiety and health anxiety, stress and panic, depression and low mood, low self-worth, relationship and parenting difficulties, grief and loss, trauma and intimacy-related issues, and challenges around eating and sleeping. She also works with ADHD, anger, compassion fatigue, and other life transitions.

Drawing on lived experience as a mother of seven grown children, Sharon brings understanding of family dynamics, parenting pressures, and the search for personal time amid busy lives. She has pursued further training in supporting people through the menopause and integrates that learning into her practice.

Sharon believes that reaching out for help is a sign of strength. She provides a safe, supportive space where clients are met with respect and compassion, and she uses practical tools and attentive listening to help people process loss, rebuild confidence, and move toward their goals.

Online delivery of acceptance and attachment-informed therapy

Sharon commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify their values and develop practical skills to live in ways that matter to them. ACT focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with personal goals and can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore patterns in relationships and how early connections influence present-day responses. This approach supports work on intimacy, abandonment concerns, and relationship communication by increasing awareness of emotional needs and attachment styles.

Sharon incorporates client-centered principles that prioritize the person's own experience, pacing the work around the client's preferences and strengths. Together these approaches allow flexibility to address grief, parenting challenges, trauma, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Sharon works collaboratively with each client - assessing needs, explaining options, and adjusting methods as goals evolve so the plan fits the individual rather than the other way around.

Online therapy with Sharon is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from various locations, and choose the format that feels most helpful for the work ahead.
