Sharon Silver, BACP

Sharon Silver offers a warm, professional approach to psychotherapy, combining an integrative framework with nine years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She adapts evidence-informed methods to match each person’s needs, drawing on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness practices. This flexible stance allows her to tailor sessions to issues including stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and a wide range of family and identity-related problems.

Sharon emphasizes a strong therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change, offering supportive, nonjudgmental listening and practical strategies that nurture wellbeing in mind, body, and spirit. She encourages clients to view seeking help as a step toward strength and growth, and she works to empower people to make choices aligned with their values. As a mother of seven grown children, Sharon brings lived experience of family life, parenting pressures, and the search for personal balance. She has also undertaken further training in menopause support and is qualified to help people process grief and loss.

Sharon holds the BACP credential - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and provides therapy in English. She is open to working with clients in the UK and internationally, offering one-to-one support that respects each person’s unique story and goals.

Therapeutic approaches for effective online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, while focusing on actions that reflect personal values - it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early and close relationships to understand how those patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses - it supports work on abandonment, intimacy, and connection issues. Client-Centered Therapy places the client’s experience at the center of the process, offering empathic, nonjudgmental listening to foster self-exploration, self-esteem, and personal agency.

Choosing the most helpful approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Sharon collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as work unfolds so therapy remains relevant and responsive.

Online therapy with Sharon is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexible options for scheduling and ongoing support. These formats make it easier to access registered professionals from different locations, accommodate busy routines, and maintain continuity of care when in-person sessions are not practical.
