Other areas I treat

Anxiety, Stress & Overwhelm

If anxiety, stress, or overwhelm are affecting your life, you're not alone, and things can get better. Sharon uses modern, neuroscience-informed techniques to help you calm your nervous system, quiet anxious thoughts, and regain control. Instead of focusing on what’s going wrong, therapy with Sharon helps you rediscover what’s working well and build more of it. You'll leave each session feeling more empowered, clear-headed, and able to navigate life with greater ease and resilience. What's more progress can be seen in as little as just a few weeks!

Fears & Phobias

Fears and phobias can be life-limiting, but they don't have to be permanent. Sharon works with you in a calm, supportive environment to reduce the emotional responses that keep you stuck. Using a combination of clinical hypnotherapy and solution-focused strategies, you’ll learn how to change the way your brain reacts, so that you can approach life more freely and confidently. Whether it’s flying, public speaking, needles, or something else, freedom is possible.

Quit Smoking – Feel Better, Breathe Easier

Quitting smoking is one of the most powerful decisions you can make for your health and well-being. Sharon offers a focused, highly effective smoking cessation session that uses clinical hypnotherapy and psychological insight to help you break free from the habit. It’s not about willpower alone, it’s about changing the way your mind thinks about smoking, so you can feel confident and in control. Take a deep breath—your smoke-free life starts here.

Working with Children & Adolescents

Children and young people face a range of emotional challenges as they grow—and early support can make all the difference. Sharon works gently and creatively with children and adolescents, helping them build confidence, manage anxiety, and navigate change. Her approach is safe, supportive, and tailored to the individual, using age-appropriate techniques grounded in psychology and solution-focused hypnotherapy. Together, we help young minds thrive and grow.

Whether you're looking to support employee well-being or bring people together in a meaningful way, Sharon offers engaging group workshops and corporate sessions tailored to your needs. Using solution-focused, evidence-based approaches, sessions explore topics such as stress reduction, confidence building, communication, and resilience.
