About Sharon

Sharon is a highly skilled therapist with a diverse range of expertise in supporting both couples and individuals through various challenges. Her work focuses on enhancing communication, deepening emotional connections, resolving conflicts, navigating life transitions, addressing parenting concerns, and managing variations in sexual desire.

With a compassionate and empathetic approach, Sharon is committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their issues and work toward positive change.
Sharon has a unique and deep understanding of neurodiversity, gained through both personal and professional experience. This specialised knowledge makes her particularly adept at supporting couples in which one or both partners identify as neurodivergent. Sharon is sensitive to the particular dynamics and challenges these couples face, and she works with them to improve communication, strengthen emotional bonds, and navigate the complexities of their relationships in a supportive and constructive way.

Sharon holds a Master’s Degree in Counselling, specialising in relationships. This educational background, combined with years of hands-on experience, allows her to employ evidence-based approaches in her therapy sessions, tailoring her methods to meet the specific needs and goals of each client. Her therapeutic style is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental, ensuring that clients feel heard and supported every step of the way.

Before transitioning to private practice, Sharon worked as a Family Peer Specialist at Alfred Child and Youth Mental Health. There, she was part of a multidisciplinary team that provided guidance and emotional support to caregivers of children facing emotional, social, and developmental challenges. This experience honed her ability to approach complex family dynamics with care and compassion, further strengthening her ability to support couples in her current practice.

Sharon’s career also includes a background in Human Resources, where she developed the skills necessary to remain impartial during workplace disputes and to mediate respectful resolutions between staff members. This experience further enhances her ability to facilitate difficult conversations and create positive outcomes for her clients.

With a commitment to fostering healthy, thriving relationships, Sharon works with clients from all walks of life, bringing her extensive experience and passion for helping others to each session.

More about Sharon

What is the most satisfying and fulfilling part of the work you do?

As a couples therapist, the most satisfying and fulfilling part of my work is witnessing the transformation that occurs within relationships. It’s incredibly rewarding to help couples navigate their challenges, deepen their connection, and rebuild trust. There’s a unique sense of fulfillment in creating a safe, supportive space where both individuals feel heard, understood, and validated. Watching couples grow together, rediscover their love, and strengthen their communication brings a sense of purpose and meaning to my work. Knowing that my guidance has contributed to the healing and growth of both individuals and their relationship is deeply gratifying.

What’s an example of a couple you have helped the most?

An example of a couple I’ve helped the most could be a pair struggling with communication issues, where they often found themselves in cycles of misunderstandings and arguments that left them feeling disconnected. When they first came to therapy, they were on the brink of separation, unsure of how to communicate their needs without conflict. Through focused work on active listening, empathy-building exercises, and developing healthy communication patterns, I was able to guide them in expressing their feelings in a way that didn’t trigger defensiveness. Over time, they began to feel heard and valued by each other, leading to a stronger, more resilient partnership. This couple’s journey stands out because they were committed to the process, and their transformation was a powerful example of how patience, understanding, and communication can revitalise even the most strained relationships.
