About Sharon

Sharon Jardine is a counsellor who focuses on helping people feeling overwhelmed by parenting, stress and life changes. She works with anxiety, depression, grief and compassion fatigue, and supports people struggling with self-esteem or career pressures. Sharon brings three years of counselling experience and a Level 4 Diploma to her practice.

She holds BACP registration, listed as BACP, and runs sessions in English for people in the United Kingdom. Her approach centres on the person at the heart of the story.

Background and approach

She uses client-centred methods to listen without judgement and to help clients find their own answers. Sessions follow what the person wants to discuss and move at a pace that feels manageable. Sharon also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people calm racing thoughts and notice patterns of feeling.

Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change and wants practical ways to take small steps. Solution-focused ideas are used to identify what already works and build on it. Her background includes work supporting people through hoarding and domestic abuse concerns, and she has practical experience across a wide range of issues such as ADHD, attachment and isolation.

Sharon describes her style as relaxed, empathetic and validating, while using therapeutic theory to guide sessions. People who want straightforward, down-to-earth support often respond well to her manner. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging so sessions can fit into busy lives.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Sharon uses client-centred work to place the person's own goals first. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what is said and helping people notice their strengths so they can decide what changes to try. It is useful for people who want a supportive space to talk through parenting stress, grief or anxiety.

She also integrates mindfulness techniques to help reduce constant worry and improve attention to the present moment. Mindfulness can be practised in short exercises between sessions and helps with rumination and stress. Motivational interviewing is used when someone feels unsure about change; it provides a way to weigh options and build motivation for practical steps forward.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss different methods and work with the client to decide which fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can evolve over time as priorities shift.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions may suit shorter check-ins or low bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit around busy days or provide a written way to reflect. These options help people access consistent support without needing to travel.
