About Sharron

Sharron Giles is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 14 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career difficulties, depression, relationship strain and anger. She also supports clients facing grief, trauma, intimacy concerns and life transitions.

Sharron works in a straightforward, person-focused way. Sessions begin by listening to what matters most and clarifying immediate goals. She draws on conversational methods to help people name patterns, practise different responses and try small changes between appointments.

Her practice blends several approaches so she can match methods to the issue at hand. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used for thinking and behaviour patterns that cause distress. Client-Centred Therapy offers space for people to reflect and be understood. Psychodynamic ideas are brought in to look at longer-term patterns that repeat in relationships.

In sessions she typically helps people manage anger that shows up as snapping at loved ones, simmering resentment, or workplace frustration. She also supports practical problems such as communication breakdowns, commitment worries, codependency and separation. Conversations include skill-building, realistic goal-setting and review of what is working.

Sharron works with a practical, human tone and encourages straightforward steps. People who want clear, manageable ways to reduce reactivity and improve relationships may find this approach useful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Sharron commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in online work. CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and helps with issues like anxiety, depression and anger-related reactions by teaching practical skills and experiments. Client-Centred Therapy concentrates on listening and reflection so people can clarify their own priorities and values in relation to relationships and personal goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She discusses goals and preferences with each person and together they decide which methods to try first. This collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Confirm the specific session formats available before you book, as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family routines, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling. Some formats also make shorter check-ins or phone conversations possible when that suits a client better. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to help people practise new responses to anger and build better communication skills over time.
